The one aspect of this is Harry has been the one suffering the most 
through dd's efforts--especially the more that people meet and 
befriend Harry. In all, the Lupin and MOM battle sequence in OOP, how 
do we know it is not DD (in his ability to be invisible without a 
cloak) who killed Sirius rather than Bellatrix or Lupin?(it only 
takes a few seconds at most right?)???

There is too much cannon that signifies the good in Lupin for anyone 
to jump on the Evil Lupin band wagon right away.  For all we know 
apperating may not make any sound at all(several times apparating 
makes different types of noises(Mundungus louder, dobby quieter, and 
DD/Volde. no sound at all)--depending on ones wizend powers--and 
voldemort killed Sirius to make Harry suffer more.(we hear neither DD 
nor Voldemort appearing or dissappearing in the battle scenes in the 
MOM)  Those who are evil/bad...JK tends to give explanations all 
along the way.  I think JK would show the journey--hence it would be 
a character we know more of....

The #1 candidate would be Percy as it would probably involve more 
than one person in the betrayal--and the betrayal would include one 
or more in the Weasley family. And I don't think it would be 
intentional.

Besides I see "other" plans for Lupin almost done with my research.
(want to make sure I'm on with cannon.)
