Alla:

Are you arguing that when Snape told Prophecy to Voldemort he 
actually did it on Dumbledore's request? 

I would say that makes Dumbledore not only manipulative, but slipping 
into Evil quite fast. JMO, obviously.

I don't see Dumbledore risking the lives of unknown couple and baby 
for some manipulative reasons, but more importantly I do not remember 
any considerable evidence in canon pointing that Dumbledore sent 
Snape to tell the Prophecy to Voldemort. I can be wrong of course, so 
could you please point me to those evidence, if you don't mind?


Oh, and going back to lives lost because of Snape. It is of course 
your prerrogative to not believe what he tells Bella and Cissy, I do 
for the most part. But most importantly while we do know that 
Kreacher went to tell the information to Malfoys about Sirius ( I 
still think that there is nothing to prevent Snape to duplicate 
Kreacher's efforts, but we do have opposite evidence at least), we 
have NOTHING, IMO to argue that anybody else is gulty in Emmeline 
Vance death, but Snape. 

Snape said it, there is no canon to show that he did not do it, IMO, 
so I am inclined to take his word for it.


Of course, just my opinion.

Alla.
