Private Message to Lucius Malfoy

Have just had a visit you might find interesting.

Stint.

Said he thought I might help him with a project of his by filing an objection to the treatment provided to my father by the Hogwarts Matron.

Told him I thought there was little she could have done wrong under the circumstances. After all, there's little one can do to worsen the condition of a corpse.

Seems that's not what he expected I'd say, and he wasn't prepared to take no for answer. Asked me if I didn't think it odd that my father was in the forest just beyond bounds of Hogwarts when he died. Observed that it was interesting the papers aren't reporting that fact.

I asked him whether he'd considered the consequences of meddling in an ongoing investigation. And sent him packing. (Did not tell him that Forney's already filed her report and sealed the file.)

Have sent St Mungo's and the school governors a note of appreciation for the Matron's cooperation with MLE on the night in question. Will be interested to see whether Stint attempts to leverage this with Our Lord. He'll be disappointed if he thinks I've not informed Him fully.
