Harry Potter Morning Light

After the decline of the Western Roman Empire, Germanic tribes and kingdoms occupied a dominant position. There were basically no courts or judges to hear lawsuits among the tribes. Public gatherings were involved in administrative, military and judicial affairs. Under such circumstances, the Germanic countries The judiciary was also relatively complex and primitive. The Visigoth Kingdom was deeply influenced by Roman culture and stipulated witnesses, oral confessions, documentary evidence, etc., while other kingdoms and tribes used oaths as the main evidence.

During the Roman conquest, Druidism was wiped out. In addition to being priests, Druids also played roles such as judges. Except for Northern England, which had not yet been conquered by Rome, Druids were hard to find.

The church absorbed a large amount of Roman law under the influence of ancient Roman culture. However, by the end of Rome I, the episcopal jurisdiction was mostly focused on adjusting religious affairs and rarely extended to secular affairs. In 333, the Roman Empire granted the church the jurisdiction to judge general civil affairs. All affairs and criminal cases are tried by the church. If the church considers the suspect guilty, the suspect will be deprived of his religious membership and sent to a secular court.

Although the Germanic tribes in the future had strong military power, they were quite weak in legal construction. After conquering Carthage, the Romans also sprinkled salt on the Carthaginian lands. At the same time, Article 22 of Table 8 of the Law of the Twelve Tables stipulates that if a witness refuses to testify, he will be designated as a "dishonored person" and will lose the qualification to testify, and he will not be able to ask others to testify for him. Article 2 Article 23 of the Eight Tables stipulates that anyone who commits perjury will be "thrown to death from a rock cut from Tarpe."

This was different in ancient Greece, where it was not uncommon to bribe witnesses and even accusers to drop cases in popular courts.

Before the ancient Romans introduced the popular assembly in ancient Greece, people would read out wills, designate heirs, and adopt their own rights in popular meetings presided over by fortune-tellers.

The fortune teller will divine for him whether it is a good idea to adopt this independent person or give the inheritance to a certain heir. Will he squander the inheritance, or monopolize the inheritance and not distribute it to his family?

The priestesses of the Temple of Delphi had only the duty of reading the oracle, and what they said was usually ambiguous. In the prophecy of Tycho Dodonas, "it was said that the son was cruelly exiled, the daughter fell into despair, and the great avenger spread his wings in the water." Who can understand such a prophecy?

In the era of Albus Dumbledore, this prophecy was very popular. At the same time, because of the "close friend" relationship between Dumbledore and Grindelwald, Dumbledore was placed under house arrest in the school, carrying more than a trace of silk. Advanced magic to monitor him.

In the early years when the mysterious man was still alive, he placed restrictions on so many people, and the Ministry of Magic did not say a word. When he died, these restrictions were lifted, and everyone took to the streets to celebrate.

If the mysterious man is guilty, shouldn't Hagrid, who was framed by him, be proven innocent?

Oh, that was when he was a student. The mysterious man in his early years was indeed the leader who brought new hope to the wizarding world. Grindelwald also led the wizards to prevent the Muggles from destroying the world.

In the case of the American Muggle Gideon, when Gideon defended himself, he asked the witness, "Do you have a criminal record?" The witness hesitated and said no, but when the case was overturned, it was not only found that he had, but that the eyewitness who was regarded as the key witness happened to be the real murderer.

This tactic was seen during the Salem Witch Trials, where everyone scrambled to be on the plaintiff's bench. To achieve this goal, anyone could accuse anyone.

Pomona once asked Severus what his first principle was.

Pomona knew that she should not lie or give perjury "in court", but this was neither the principal's court nor the Ministry of Magic's court. It was at most a public meeting, and she did not swear that what she said was true.

If she told everyone "honestly", no one would believe it. Even if Sprout's appearance was mediocre, it didn't mean that she was worthless.

She did not say "I don't know where they are" as she did when the Nazis asked about the whereabouts of the partisans, but she still told the disguised truth, which was much more believable than the truth.

Although the testimony of close relatives also has legal effect, it is not as good as the testimony of a third person, and in some cases it has to be avoided.

She felt that there was no need to cause more trouble because a little girl fell asleep in an empty classroom.

Myrtle also disappeared overnight. Principal Perdido investigated the next morning and found that Oliver Humbey was the last one to see her, so he asked Humbey to participate in the search for Myrtle, and Humbey became the first. The man who discovered Myrtle's body.

After Myrtle became a ghost, she would laugh when she mentioned this incident, because she liked the look on Humbey's face at that time.

When both the jury and the prosecution determined that Gideon was the real murderer, no one thought about or doubted the credibility of the accuser. Instead, they used the accuser's criminal record as a reason to doubt the credibility of his testimony. This attack and prejudice defended him because Gideon was already found guilty and all claims to prove his innocence were rejected.

Sirius was even exempted from the interrogation process when he was interrogated. Who knows that he comes from the ancient Black family, which is famous for black magic, and has a cousin like Bellatrix.

Asylum is not always a good thing. Sometimes even the patron is implicated because the crime committed by the patron is so serious.

Dumbledore's personal character was impeccable, and even though newspapers were publishing scandals about Aberforth, it could not shake people's trust in him.

But he chose to shelter Severus Snape instead of Sirius Black. After all, the fact that Severus was a Death Eater was only witnessed by Karkaroff, while Sirius bombed a Muggle street and caused many deaths, which was witnessed by many people.

Even if Kelly Wharton is found, things are not over. After what happened to the eight-eyed spider, Hagrid still did not restrain himself and continued to tame dangerous magical animals.

Who doesn’t hate such “elderly”?

Although Pomona now wanted to levitate Thicknesse with a levitation spell and slam her to the ground, she still reminded Felivi to find the last witness who saw Wharton at the time, as well as her roommates. Time is passing, we can't wait here.

Not long after, three little girls came in. Felivi asked them to wait in the Ravenclaw lounge instead of going to class.

Their faces were a little pale, but they still spoke in an orderly manner. Kelly's behavior has been a little different recently. She has become very fond of looking in the mirror.

"What are you looking at in the mirror?" Minerva asked confused.

"Maybe it's because she recently got a new hairpin." Kelly's roommate said. "She put it on her head and looked left and right in the mirror."

"What kind of hairpin?" Minerva asked.

"It looks like a feather, but it's made of silver," Kelly's roommate replied.

"I don't think it looks good, but she likes it," said another of Kelly's roommates.

"It doesn't suit her at all," a third roommate continued.

"Get to the point!" Snape shouted fiercely.

"After putting on that hairpin, she went back to the dormitory very late, and we don't know where she went." Kelly's roommate said.

Pomona remembered the "quill" that Severus had seen on the big-headed monster. Russ looked for the big-headed monster everywhere in the school, and also checked the school's quills, but no one paid attention to it. Hairpins on little girl's head.

"Let's go." Livi said with a headache.

The three students left, and Pomona looked at Felivi with sympathy.

The last time Myrtle happened, not only the headmaster resigned, but also the headmaster of Ravenclaw... maybe all four of them would lose their jobs.

Next, the Ministry of Magic took over Hogwarts, and she could almost foresee what would happen next.

Muggle school children look forward to the holidays and hate the start of school, not necessarily because they are as playful as Pinocchio's friends.

In such a school, a "learning atmosphere" is created, which is not a win-win cooperation, but a life and death situation.

Helena was always ostracized by the older children in Muggle schools. Not only did she have no friends, but the others also wished that something would happen to her, so that there would be one less competitor. Of course, she would not be able to ask them when she encountered something she didn't understand. .

Some people are constantly learning to increase their competitiveness. There are also people who play easily and boldly, and end up learning nothing in school and not caring about how to gain a foothold in society in the future. Gideon learned all he knew about law in prison.

Fernon Desley was the winner under this rule, and Penny felt content because he provided a stable life for her and her children.

People's needs are different. Pomona stole a glance at Snape. Although his hair was greasy, it was still within the range of her tolerance.

Sirius Black was so handsome, there were few women who didn't have fantasies about him, and some were even willing to prove that they had a candlelight dinner with her on the day Sirius blew up the Muggle streets.

But when he thought about the women who also liked him, Pomona felt that it was too tiring to defeat them. Just look at Narcissa Malfoy's current state.

Some difficulties are too difficult, like getting up in the morning and knowing that you can't make it in time no matter what, so why rush?

If you don’t want to get extra points for overcoming difficulties, then don’t. There are so many novel things here, as well as magical animals. However, understanding and taking care of them is not part of the exam, nor can it be counted as a bonus point.

There is no other purpose, just because I like it. Even if it does not contribute to all mankind, it makes myself happy.

Why do everyone have to live the same way? Feeling happy to get the same thing, feeling painful to lose the same thing, just like the "Happiness Manual" says, not having these things is unfortunate.

Wizards don’t have cars, but they have Floo fans. Do they still need a car if they have Floo?

Arthur thought it was necessary. After being illegally modified, he could send his children to school. He usually wouldn't need this.

She saw that Thicknesse owned a flying Rolls-Royce and thought it was not as handsome as the Thestral carriage in Hogwarts.

It would be very annoying if he became the Minister of Magic. I really hope that day never comes.

She prayed like this, so bored that she yawned.
