Line 165:
[[Ralph Ineson]] plays Amycus, and [[Suzie Toase]] appears as Alecto in the films, wherein they are reduced to non-speaking roles. In the second part of the final film, Snape deflects a spell from McGonagall which hits the Carrows, possibly to protect the students from their abuses and to show his allegiance to Dumbledore.
===Barty Crouch Jr===
It was never mentioned in which hogwarts house '''Bartemius "Barty" Crouch, Junior''' actually was. Later, he is captured by the Ministry of Magic along with [[Bellatrix Lestrange|Bellatrix]], [[Rodolphus Lestrange|Rodolphus]], and [[Rabastan Lestrange]], who tortured the Aurors Frank and Alice Longbottom into insanity. His father, [[Barty Crouch Sr.]], who heads the Department of Magical Law Enforcement at this time, sentences him to life imprisonment in [[Azkaban]]. However, he later rescues his son as a favour to his dying wife. When they visit him in Azkaban, Mrs. Crouch uses Polyjuice Potion to switch appearances with her son, enabling him to escape while she remains in his place. When she dies, she is buried under his identity. Crouch Jr. is nursed back to health by [[Magical creatures (Harry Potter)#Winky|Winky]], the family's [[Magical creatures (Harry Potter)#House-elves|house-elf]].▼

To prevent him from returning to Voldemort's service, Crouch Sr. controls his son with the Imperius Curse and keeps him hidden under an [[Invisibility cloak (Harry Potter)|invisibility cloak]]. When [[Bertha Jorkins]] discovers the truth, the news reaches Voldemort, who rescues Crouch Jr. and puts Crouch Sr. under the Imperius Curse. Crouch Jr. then imprisons [[Alastor Moody|Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody]], a famous Auror, and uses Polyjuice Potion to assume Moody's appearance and infiltrate Hogwarts as the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher. Despite not being a real teacher, Crouch Jr. does a fair job and the class learns many things from him, including valuable knowledge related to the three "Unforgivable Curses". Crouch Sr. escapes and, exhausted and delirious from the Imperius Curse, reaches Hogwarts to tell Dumbledore about Voldemort's return. However, his son murders him on the castle grounds, transfigures the body into a bone, and buries the bone in freshly turned earth in front of Hagrid's cabin.<ref>Rowling, J.K.
