I agree, St. Mungo's is suspicious.  May I ask what analysis you were 
reading?  I already know that the Ultimate Unauthorized Guide to 
Harry Potter Mysteries by the Wizarding World Press pays alot of 
attention to that institution.  If that isn't the one you were 
reading, I highly recoomend it. 

Another concern about St. Mungo's: famous aurors the Longbottoms are 
hospitalized there, supposedly still disturbed from the Cruciatus 
Curse inflicted on them by the Lestranges and thier companions, 
including Barty Crouch Jr.  However, if the administration of the 
hospital is influenced by DEs, then is thier safety in doubt?  Are 
they perhaps being kept in a state of confused recovery on purpose?  
If so, why? Do they know something? It could be just wanton cruelty, 
but if it were that, why are they still alive at all? Possibly the 
wizard in charge of thier care is frightened enough to keep them 
there, but not loyal enough to Voldemort to commit murder outright?

In any case, from what we know of our beloved author, Ms. Rowling, 
does anyone think it is a coincidence that we know of only two 
married couples who fought together, the Longbottoms and the 
Lestranges, that they were involved in an altercation years ago, AND 
that the altercation left both couples confined against thier will in 
less-than-trustworthy places? Does anyone really think we've seen the 
last of this storyline? I certainly don't.

Hopelessly anticipating auror action,
Tim
