Now me:
I may just be being dense here [that has certainly happened here 
before!], but I thought the whole reason for Sirius's suggesting 
Peter as SecretKeeper was that he [Sirius] DIDN'T want to be in the 
know.  He'd said he would have been too obvious a choice for that, 
right?  So if Peter told Sirius *anyway*, then what's the point of 
using Peter?  

Or are you both talking about Peter telling Sirius *after* the 
murders took place?
