And speaking of torture, I'm being tortured myself, by the scene in
GOF where Harry watches the Lestrange's trial of Neville's father. 
Why not Neville's *parents*? It seems significant that the MOM tried
the people responsible for the torture of Mr. Longbottom separately
from that of Mrs. Longbottom. That is, if her torture was tried at
all. Do we have any canon that she really was tortured, other than
what everyone believes happened? Are we really sure she was tortured
along with her husband, or does the MOM know something we don't know yet?
