I agree.  Percy has always been obsessed with being important and in charge. He 
was a school prefect.  He was head boy. He now works for the ministry of magic under an influential person- Barty Crouch.  While I feel crouch may be ok, Ludo Bagman who gets mentioned I don't trust him as far as I could spit in the wind.  His own dismissed elf in book 4, Winky, even let slip from what she knew having served Crouch that Bagman was bad news. 
I think Percy has some underlying need to feel important and be in the limelight having come from such a large family. It would make sense, coupled with book evidence above, that he would easily become swayed by darker powers and influences without knowing it or not wanting to acknowledge that he knew.
