Random832:
But he _was_ guilty of something, that it's arguable was worthy of
expulsion even _without_ having caused a death. Keep in mind that even
after he was proven innocent beyond all doubt of any involvement in
Myrtle's death or of opening the CoS, he still didn't get the right to
use a wand. Raising an acromantula inside the castle, which no-one
disputes he did, still constitutes reckless endangerment.
