Hmmm, together with ESE!Lupin that's already two half-humans/diguised-
as-humans that are evil. Of course we still have Hagrid as a good 
half-human, and vampire!Snape is perhaps not evil, but not exactly 
good either. I feel that with all the anti-bigotry theme of HP we can 
afford at most one evil half-human.
