There is a theroy with some that Barty Crouch Jr. WASN'T actually
guilty when he entered Azkaban... but the horrors of the place (and
the association with the Lestranges changed him.)
It is possible that he only became a servent of Voldemort after the
fact. Partially due to the hatred his father showed him. (remember
his biggest goal was that voldemort view his as "closer than a son".
That said, he very well COULD have been a gryphindore, for example,
during school... but life changed his nature.
Same thing COULD be said about Peter and others... Since Rowling
tells us life is about choices not predetermination nor heritage, I
can't beleive that she would be steadfast that a person can not
change from the time that the hat sorts you (around 11 years of age)
and into adulthood. Goodness knows I am not the same person by a long
strech that i was at 11.
Unless the hat has powers that can predict the future, or else
Rowling suggests that we ARE WHO WE ARE at 11, it is entirely
possible for the hat to be "allways right" when sorting them at a
young age and for that person to change in nature by adulthood.
Just a thought
