Rodolphus seems to have a pretty low profile in the last two years 
before Voldemort's final defeat, so perhaps he was able to plea-bargain 
his way out of Azkaban, like Kakaroff before him...?

Speaking of making bargains, and since you bring up the film's Astronomy 
Tower scene -- Looking at Bella's big, pyromaniacal presence in the 
sixth film, I can't help wondering if Helen Bonham-Carter lobbied for a 
bigger role in it, over JKR's objections...?  (Just a hypothesis.)

My big problem with Voldemort and Bella having a kid (aside from the 
obvious "Eww" aspect) is that you'd think V would have deemed it too 
risky.  In his own mind, he's literally immortal, so no need to 
"immortalize" oneself with an heir.  So why risk siring a potential 
future rival?
