Anne,
I am missing something! How can we assume Draco knew about Fake!
Moody? It seems from canon that FM(Barty Crouch Jr. actually) wanted 
LV to deal sternly with DE's that walked free. It doesn't seem that 
any of the DE's who were free knew of BCJr.s continued existence 
either. They were certainly afraid of seeing the dark mark at the 
QWC which suggests they knew that LV wasn't too pleased with them. I 
don't know that it's safe to assume at least by the end of GOF that 
all the DE's are on the same side. Tell me what you know that I 
don't!
