To make a long story short - what do you think is better nickname for
Dumbledore "the accomplice in Harry's abuse or "the accomplice in
Harry's death"?"

Tonks, Mad-Eye, Lupin and the Weasleys seem to think that there's no
reason to choose, at the end of OoP. They have no problem letting
Harry go back to Privet Drive while at the same time ensuring that he
will be treated correctly.

DD could have given at least the smallest incentive to the Dursleys to
treat Harry correctly. He could have tried dropping by unexpectedly,
he could have visited the boy regularly, he could have written to the
boy, or whatever. Just let the Dursleys remember that there's someone
else guarding over Harry.

For crying out loud, he didn't even care that the boy was fed horrible
lies about his *parents* who died for him !

DD did not HAVE to leave the Dursleys completely unsupervised for 10
years. Unless of course that was part of the stinking contract.
