Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry. I was so concentrated on the "abuse of
power" aspect of karmic punishment that I did not make myself clear
about this example. OF COURSE Fake!Moody was punished for all of
that too, but if you are going to argue that he was not punished for
how he treated Neville , I think I will disagree.
IMO and IMO only Fake!Moody was punished for who he was, as a
package deal , you know.
I think Snape will be punished the same way ( hopefully NOT dementor
kiss, I would not wish that even on character like Snape) - as a
package deal for who he is.

Do we have a canon to show that person can choose one's fear? For
example even if Neville was afraid of his gran, it seemed to me that
Boggart had no problem choosing what his primary fear is. IMO of
course.
