Hi there, 
This point is an aside but it does have something to do with your 
point. Dumbledore theorizes that LV made Nagini a horcrux with the 
death of an old muggle man (Frank Bryce) and this was when he only 
had the tiny scaly baby body. That to me seems very amazing. I was 
under the impression he was pretty much helpless at that point. I 
certainly understand he couldn't have created a horcrux after the AK 
rebounded onto him and left him less than the meanest ghost, but I 
was amazed at the thought that the scaly baby could do such a thing. 
Am I missing another muggle that DD could have been refering to? I 
have wracked my brain and the text, and don't come up with any other 
muggle murder. If this is the murder, it definitely seems that Peter 
would have had to have helped. Makes you wish Harry's dream could 
have gone on another few minutes.

her brain...
