The nanosecond she'd finished her business at Gringotts getting the money that rightfully belonged to the Potters returned to their vault, Madam Bones apparated back to Hogwarts.
Still armed with her wand, handcuffs, and Veritasiurium, Madam Bones made her way to Dumbledore's office.
"Goodness, Amelia, " said Dumbledore in surprise, "To what do I owe this pleasure?"
"Believe me, Albus, I take no pleasure in being here right now, " answered Madam Bones while restraining Dumbledore with the handcuffs.
"You're going to arrest me when I haven't done anything wrong?" mused Dumbledore.
"If you truly believe haven't done anything wrong, then I don't think you have any appreciation for what the word "wrong" means," said Amelia coldly, "You are guilty of numerous serious crimes."
"I have never murdered, raped, or assaulted anyone, " insisted Dumbledore.
"Don't try to set up a straw man, Dumbledore, " said Madam Bones frostily, "You are guilty of the illegal sealing of a will, the unlawful disobeying of a will, framing, withholding of evidence, theft, child neglect, child endangerment, child manipulation, and promotion of danger."
Dumbledore looked puzzled so Madam Bones continued her explanation, never giving Dumbledore a nanosecond of eye contact.
"Dumbledore, you sealed the Potters wills, sent Harry to live with Vernon and Petunia Dursley against his parents' wishes, and never bothered to check up on Harry as he grew up. You also knew that Sirius Black was innocent, and that Peter Pettigrew was both the double crosser and the murderer of the muggles. Because you knew about this and never made any effort to get Sirius a trail, never even spoke out in his defense, you are guilty of withholding of evidence. The fact this led to the unjust imprisonment of Sirius Black, thus, through your deliberate silence you framed Sirius Black for Peter Pettigrew's transgressions. You are also guilty of child manipulation. The very reason you wanted Harry with Vernon and Petunia is that you wanted him treated poorly so that when his Hogwarts life was better than his home life, he would trust you and become loyal to you. You are also guilty of child endangerment relative to every student at Hogwarts due to keeping dangerous creatures, areas, and objects within the school." said Madam Bones icily.
"Well, " said Dumbledore matter of factly, "I sent Harry to his aunt and uncle because he was safer there. You see while Harry lives where his mother's blood dwells, there Voldemort cannot harm him, nor can any Death Eater or Dark Wizard."
"If you're saying that there were blood wards, they wouldn't have worked, " said Madam Bones clearly, "In order for blood wards to truly work, genuine love must exist."
"They must have worked. Harry was never hurt while on Privet Drive, " said Dumbledore.
"That's so factually false there's no way to put in perspective how untrue it is, "said Madam Bones with a chill in her voice, "Harry's uncle and aunt hit him with their belt and frying pan, allowed their son to bully Harry and others-"
"I never knew about most of those things, " said Dumbledore carelessly.
"THAT ONLY PROVES YOUR GUILT WITH REGARD TO NEGLECTING HARRY!" shouted Madam Bones, "You never cared enough about Harry to check on his well-being. You never cared about Harry Potter the person. only about Harry Potter the tool."
"It's all for the Greater Good-" began Dumbledore but Madam Bones cut him off.
"Don't give me that nonsense, " said Madam Bones bitterly, "You wanted to raise Harry to be a sacrificial lamb when Voldemort returned so that you could defeat Voldemort in your own way, take all the credit, and bask in the glory of being the one who got rid of the Dark Lord."
Dumbledore sat stunned.
"I have transferred Harry's guardianship to Sirius Black. It is done and finished. The Dursleys are in ministry holding cells and I plan on recommending thirty years in Azkaban for them. I have restored the money they were given for Harry's care but spent on vacations for themselves to the Potters vault. Harry's and Sirius's situations are just about fixed, and justice is coming for the Dursleys. Your manipulations have been found and undone. There are also Hogwarts issues here."
"Such as?" questioned Dumbledore.
"Why are dangerous creatures such as cerberuses and acromantulas allowed to be kept at Hogwarts? Why haven't the school brooms been replaced for decades? I have also checked into your staff the last few days. Why is Severus Snape teaching here? He was a Death Eater."
"He turned spy for us before the war ended at great personal risk, "" said Dumbledore fiercely.
"Even if that is true, no one with ANY history of being a Death Eater should be teaching children, " said Madam Bones firmly, "It has also come to my attention that Snape bullies non Slytherin students at Hogwarts."
Dumbledore remained silent for several minutes and several nanoseconds.
"You can't even think what to say to defend yourself, " said Madam Bones coldly, "Well, effective immediately, you are being removed from the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts. You are hereby ineligible for all political positions in Wizarding Britain for the rest of your life. You will be fined nine hundred octillion galleons. You will be taken to a ministry holding cell and I plan to recommend life in Azkaban for you. The dangerous creatures housed at Hogwarts, including those housed in the Forbidden Forest will be taken away and be sent to live on appropriate reservations. I will be announcing the new Headmaster of Hogwarts to the students at dinner tonight."
Madam Bones took Dumbledore to the ministry holding cells and placed him in one of them that had strong Anti Disapparation Wards on it.
Madam Bones then returned to Hogwarts in time to make the big announcement.
