What do you guys think of this subplot? As usual in GoF, the mob is easily swayed... Does that mean Bagman is actually guilty of something? I always felt something was fishy with him and he would show up again... but given that we've had no news since then and that it was dropped from the movie, I guess the matter is moot. Maybe it serves as an exemple of an actual person who was tricked in serving Voldemort by opposition with all the actual DEs (see Impero'ed Arthur theories)
Why would they think Frank would have such information? Any reason besides him being an Auror? Frank and Alice were hidden as part of the same program as James and Lily Potter, were they not ? I mean, they had as many chances to be targetted... maybe that was known among the DE. Bellatrix & co might not have known about Peter at this point, at least not by name. But if they knew that Voldemort had a secret informer among the Order, and that it was this spy's informant that led him to his mysterious disapearance it makes sense to look among those people for knowledge of what happened to him (and what secret weapon fell him ^^)
It also might be recupped back to the Horcruxes as well. I wouldn't be surprised if Bellatrix had some shred of knowledge about them, or one horcrux in her possession.
Interesting that he doesn't name Snape right away, but waits until the last moment, until it's his only remaining option. I always saw it as an indication that they were friends, yes. That and the way Karkaroff kept hanging around Snape ^^ Not to mention the way he hovers around Viktor who's described as looking like Snape ;)
