"Look Malfoy, I’m not even supposed to be here because I’m testifying for your sorry arse, you’re welcome by the way, so stop interrupting and let me speak. That waste of space auror, Higgins, ratted your wolf status to The Prophet and that information was released along with your trial date. The day after it was published, your father came to the Ministry, and essentially admitted all guilt and that he didn’t want legal counsel. The Wizengamot thought they’d kill two Malfoy birds with one stone and try him before you."
