One of the things Sirius was convicted of 12 years ago was the 
murder of Peter, the Ministry would have trouble explaining the 
existence of the body of Peter Pettigrew that had only been dead for 
a few hours. But what the idiot Ministry thinks or does not think is 
not the important point; without Peter's help Voldemort would never 
have been able to rise again and he would have remained an 
insubstantial specter, a danger only to rats and snakes in the 
forests of Albania. This is why stopping Sirius and Lupin from 
killing Wormtail was the biggest mistake in Harry's entire life.
