Colm’s smile was cruel. "I’m well aware that, when the Wizengamot is involved, being acquitted can mean you’re innocent; but much more often, it means you called in enough favours or you handed out enough money. The key words in Paragraph 11 are "I am convinced’—myself and the other three people I named, we’re not judges, so we’re not bound by the rules of law, by the rules of evidence or by jury verdicts. Any of us four merely has to believe in his mind that you used your magic to commit an evil act in Britain. Do you understand? You can blarney your way into a Wizengamot acquittal—but still can lose your magic if I choose to take it. Walk wary, Albus Dumbledore."
