BTW in GoF he was only one suspect out of a bunch, probably
because JKR realized he's not much of a red herring anymore.
Do you really think the readers will fall for red-herring!Snape a
third time? <
Pippin:
Harry has. Last I heard, he was determined to blame Sirius's
death on Snape. Give him some concrete evidence that it's
possible, and he'll fall for it, just like he fell for the false
vision of the DoM. Sophisticated readers will know better, just as
some of us knew to suspect the vision, but so what? The
suspense-ridden question will not be whodunnit, but how will
Harry react when he finds out?
