Thought I'd throw in my 10 cents worth as I haven't really joined in 
any of these threads yet. Hi BTW.

Marietta knew what she was doing. She not only betrayed the DA but 
one of her close friends, she threw Cho out there and left her to 
take whatever the punishment would be. Maybe she never intended to 
get Dumbledore into trouble but she knew very well what Umbridge was 
like, the whole school did, and by selling out the DA she knew that 
they were likely to get one hell of a punishment. Maybe not the full 
consequence but she knew it would be bad. Granted we don't know why 
she did it but...I can't think of ONE good reason that would excuse 
her actions? Nobody forced her to sign that parchment, she could have 
easily got up and walked away but she didn't (like someone said she 
was to weak to make her own decisions). I agree that it was unfair of 
Hermione, she could have at least given some indication that they had 
sealed their fate in some way but if you expect Harry to deal with 
the consequences of his actions then so should Marietta, and that 
happens to be the SNEAK mark.
