VIGILANTE GROUP "DUMBLEDORE'S ARMY" FOUND TO BE ACTIVE
By Betty Brathwaite
LONDON-A secret vigilante group thought to have been disbanded years ago was recently revealed to have still been operating. Dumbledore's Army, also called the DA, was founded years ago before the death of Albus Dumbledore. Run by then-students at Hogwarts, the group's aims seemed to be thwarting authority and taking action into their own hands. This group, when it was first functional, could have been written off as overenthusiastic youths. However now that it has been revealed by one Zacharias Smith to still be in existence, one can only wonder what the members of it are planning to do now.
Perhaps they could take over for the DMLE who have been doing an abysmal job of catching the perpetrator of the series of murders lately. Harry Potter, hero of the wizarding world, still lies unavenged. How many more people need to die before the ministry can solve this mystery?
A source within the DMLE states that one Auror managed to have a sketch artist come in, one who somehow witnessed an attack, and now there is a suspect, a female witch with dark hair. Her image is being circulated throughout the department and certain Aurors feel confident now that it is only a matter of time before she is identified and captured.
