I fear the following line of questions will sound stupid-but I have 
lent my copy of Oop to friend so I cannot research this-please help?

Who are Sturgis Podmore and Broderick Bode (I may have the names 
slightly wrong)?  Are they both MoM workers who are also Death 
Eaters?  Or just MoM workers who tried to get prophecy, and could not?
Was Bode killed because he is good but the imperius curse was wearing 
off and he would he made a mess for LV's side?
 
I only ask because I recently re-read POA and during the Gry./Slith. 
Quidditch match their is a young Bode male playing. I am trying to 
sort out if we actually have a family containing Slytherins that 
falls toward the "good" side of the upcoming war.  This could be a 
strong "clue" that there are supporters of the Order of the Phoenix, 
Potter and all that from all 4 houses.
