Mr. Crouch by uxorial (his deathbed promises to his wife)
Terri, are you familiar with Elkins' theories about the Crouch family? She suggests that Crouch Sr was motivated by a combination of will to rehabilitate his son - which got transformed into the kind of brainwashing and 're-education' we heard of in assorted totalitarian regimes, possibly combined with guilt over his son getting caught in the first place, if one believes Crouch Sr was involved in causing the Lestranges to go after the Longbottoms - with the purpose of catching one more Death Eater to restore his own popularity (all going pear-shaped when one of the Death Eaters turned out to have been his own son).
