Things in the Wizarding World had started to move quickly once the Boy-who-lived was pronounced dead, Amelia Bones had opened an immediate investigation into his living circumstances, the time the goblins had supplied her with, being before Dumbledore had pronounced him missing. She knew of course that it would have been, as it would be the exact moment the ward monitor informed him, the time the adoption ceremony was completed. For the good of the Wizarding World though, and the safety of her godson, it was better that it was known to everyone that Harry Potter was dead. After all, if it hadn't been for the actions of Jack and Ianto it probably wouldn't have been long before he was dead, the abusive muggles certainly wouldn't have cared one way or another if the child had perished in their care as long as their neighbours didn't find out.
It was Amelia's intention to make the muggles who had hurt her godson and the Headmaster who had placed him there to face justice for what they had put the child through. Obviously she had no body to work with, but in their world the goblins testimony was good enough when it came to proving life or death of anyone who held an account with the bank. Her investigation had the muggles for child abuse and as the child they had approved was so high profile the Minister had approved her trialling the muggles in front of the Wizengamot. Their own child had been placed in the muggle childcare system and she had used her own contacts within the muggle law enforcement systems to have it shown that the Dursleys had been arrested for child abuse and were being held without bail for their trials. Once they had been found guilty they would either be sentenced to Azkaban or given to the goblins, the goblins would no doubt take custody of them as they had found records of payments to the Dursley family for Harry's care, money that had not been spent on the child. The goblins were rather unhappy that the muggles had been taking the child's money and then hurting him, it was dishonourable to them, children were sacred. It was likely that the muggles would be sentenced to work in the mines in Gringotts in order to repay the money.
Amelia was having a harder time pinning any of the responsibility for the abuse on Dumbledore, even though she had the evidence of the mental tampering he had done to the muggle authorities it wouldn't be enough to get a trial in front of the Wizengamot to prosecute him. Albus Dumbledore had too many supporters for that, it would be political suicide for her to move against him with the evidence she had at the moment. Instead she was prepared to wait the long game, and Jack and Ianto had agreed with her assessment of the situation. Until Dumbledore began to lose some of his popularity nothing would stick to him.
Rita Skeeter was a big help in that regard, she was digging through the man's past with a fine tooth comb, looking for anything that could be used to discredit him. It was obvious to many that the man was responsible for what happened to the Potter child, but nothing was being done about it. Skeeter knew for definite that he was involved, the file of information she had been passed by the goblins outlined that to her perfectly, and she would do her best to make others see that he was a man that couldn't be trusted with the welfare of children.
Lucius Malfoy was another concerned citizen who was doing his best to see Dumbledore ousted from his current positions. He had been meeting with the other members of the Board of Governors, using Skeeter's articles as a basis for why the man shouldn't be in a position of control of the children of the Wizarding World. While there were still a few supporters of the Headmaster on the Board he was unable to get him removed, but he did manage to get an approval for an audit of Hogwarts to take place. The audit would go through everything, financials, teachers, detention records and grades were only a few areas that they would be investigating. Hopefully the audit would show Dumbledore in a negative light in a way that would allow him to force the other members who were holding out to realise that the man was a danger to their children. Lucius knew that he had no desire to allow his son to study under the old man's leadership, but he doubted Narcissa would allow him to send Draco to Durmstrang as it was so far away.
Cornelius Fudge, fool he may be, had realised that there was a storm on the horizon as a result of the child's death, and that he would need to have an active role in doing something about the situation if he didn't want to be swept along in the tide of people that were held responsible. He knew that he personally hadn't done anything to put the child in the situation he had been in, but then again that was exactly it, he hadn't done anything. He hadn't insisted on any checks on the child, he hadn't sent anyone from the child welfare department to check up on the child or his guardians, he had just trusted Albus Dumbledore and his word that the child was fine. Knowing that Madame Bones would have the investigation into the child's death well in hand he made his appeal to the public in general, aiming to gain a sense of solidarity with them that would help him stay in office. He spent his time arranged a memorial ceremony for the child, that the public would be able to attend, he could show his remorse for the child's death, remorse that was shared by the majority of the Wizarding World, regardless of whether they were dark, light or neutral. Magical children are precious and should be treasured, the senseless death of a magical child at the hands of muggles was horrendous.
Albus Dumbledore was having a terrible time of it, everything had gone wrong since the Potter child had died, and he now had to try and do some massive damage control. He knew that Madame Bones was investigating the Dursleys and to a small extent himself, but he wasn't too worried about that, there was no evidence that he knew anything about the abuse so the only thing that would come up would be his placing the child with the Dursley's in the first place, but that was just him following the actions that Lily and James had stated in the will that the goblins had read on the 1st of November. That the will was a fake was something that wouldn't come to light as he was the only one to know about the will being submitted on the day they died, the person from the Potter family lawyers who submitted the will was no longer living, having had a bad splinching accident a few years ago.
The main issues that had come up for Albus were the hate campaign that Rita Skeeter seemed to be starting with him as the main target and Lucius Malfoy's campaign to see him removed. There were things in his past that he would rather stayed there and he knew that if the reporter kept digging around in his life she could unearth them and expose him. That was the last thing he needed, if she managed to find out about Gellert and his past his whole image could be destroyed, people would start to question his defeat of the dark wizard and would find out that he had been nothing but a man with aspirations of power just like Grindewald and Voldemort.
Malfoy was just as big a problem, the other man having managed to get an audit done of Hogwarts, there were a few issues that were going to come to light because of that. They Board would no doubt force him to exorcise Binns and sack Trelawney, both members of staff he kept around for specific reasons. If they had a decent history teacher then there wouldn't be as much conflict in the Wizarding World as people would learn from the past, and if they had a true accounting of some of the history certain plans of his would fall apart. For instance if the world knew that Slytherin and Gryffindor were brothers and got on well the rivalry between the two houses would diminish and that could ruin many of his plans. Trelawney he needed close to keep her 'safe' to perpetuate the idea of his prophecy being true when the Dark Lord returned, although he would need to start moulding the Longbottom child to fulfil the role of Saviour.
There was just so much to do now that the Potter child had perished, if it wouldn't draw attention to him he would try and get a chance to speak with the Dursleys on his own in order to curse them for the trouble they were causing him now. They just had to ruin all his plans by killing the child, they were really the most useless muggles he had ever come across. Albus would just have to weather the storm, it was trying to unseat him, but it couldn't be allowed to. He would do as was expected of him, and things would go back to normal. He would speak at the trial of the Dursleys, explain his placement of the child based on the Potter will and attend the memorial and show remorse for the senseless death of a magical child. Most would soon begin to ignore the papers and the slander in them and see him as the benevolent Headmaster once again, he just needed to get through the audit intact.
