IMPERIUSED ARSONIST KILLED by: Morgana Duchamp Bristol - Last night Ministry officials arrived to a small alley in Bristol where one Hershel Hall was found dead. The twenty (20) year old's body had been discovered after officials went to investigate the appearance of a Dark Mark over the city. It's been released to the public that he had been killed by an intended killing curse. Whats surprising to most is that Hall was under investigation for his involvement in the arsonist attack on Dizzy Witch Cafe earlier this month. While officials confirmed that Hall was in fact victim to an imperius curse during his involvement of the Diagon Alley attack - some question why Hall wasn't being followed during his last hours of life. "You'd think they'd keep closer tabs on the people that have managed to survive after being imperiused," said one critic who was extremely distraught by the news. "In [Hall]'s case they'd have been able to catch the death eaters who were obviously stalking him." When asked about the protocol for imperiused victims the Ministry claimed that once a victim is dropped of all charges they can no longer legally follow civilians. And because of that they have no idea who ended the life of Hershel Hall. Curiously enough a contact within the Law Enforcement Squad has informed us here at the Daily Prophet that they received an anonymous owl from a supposed witness. While the note was short and concise it's believed that there were two assailants present the night or Mr. Hall's murder. The only name confirmed from the anonymous tip is that of Alecto Carrow.
