I didn't want the Weasley case. Too many high profile people involved. All of them with past ties to the victim, almost each and every one capable of the murder.
Arggh! Who am I kidding? Every single one has the ability and more than likely the drive to do away with Weasley…Do away with! What a lovely euphemism for killing a bastard like Ron Weasley!

Preliminary Thoughts
By all accounts, the little shit deserved to die while he was still at school. Low self-esteem, jealous of his friends – mostly monetary – evidence of abuse as a child and that parents ignored it; all textbook indicators of a troubled, violent boy. History of possible abuse garnered from stray comments during interviews. Started young? Probably relative – he has five brothers.
Jealousy: Potter had fame and fortune. Was also a great piece of arse, supposedly? School-boy crush? Groupie? Stalker?
Jealousy: Anyone who got near Harry Potter.
Jealousy: Granger had superior intelligence. Pity fuck? Annoyance?
Sexual Preference: male, but willing to take what he could fuck get. Seems most partners were male.
Sexual Preference: violent, often beat or left partners bloody; psychological and physical abuse of partners.
History of substance abuse: Alcohol, drugs both Wizard and Muggle (unknown substance found on body).
Personal ties to murder suspects:
Schoolmate of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom (Gryffindor); Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zabini (Slytherin).
Son of Molly Weasley
Former fiancée of Hermione Granger
Former student of Severus Snape
Ties to Lucius Malfoy, nightclub owner, Club Echelon; business under surveillance for illegal activities (pending investigation by another division).
