In Harry Potter 3, Vernon assaulted Harry and obstructed his way , Harry was defending himself using his wand. So he's not guilty of attempted murder, in fact, he never tried to harm anyone, the inflated lady wasn't intentional. In Harry Potter 5, Umbridge tried to torture Harry with Doloris (which is a crime she knows about), something she already did and tries to drug him with truth serum (also a crime), by not saving her from Kidnapping, he saved himself, so it doesn't count.
Harry obviously knew what he was doing as he did it in response to the lady insulting his mum, and never attempted to help her - Vernon is Harry's legal guardian and was allowed to restrain Harry in a citizen's arrest if he suspected he had committed a crime.
@@cinemacopit was accidental magic, his magic reacted to his emotions, whether he felt sorry for it is different and I personally wouldn’t feel any remorse when he’d been repeatedly goaded into losing his temper because of her insulting his parents, the insults were worse in the book and lasted a week straight before he lost his temper
@@cinemacop *I apologize for such a long comment, I looked up from my keyboard after typing it and realized how long it was. You don't have to read it if you don't want to.* In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, in response to Harry's disbelieve at the discovery he's a wizard, Hagrid asks him if there were any "strange things" that happened to him when he was "scared or angry". A witch/wizard's magic is highly undeveloped at a younger age, which is why students are officially admitted to Hogwarts after they turn 11. The Ministry of Magic may have sub laws in place that protect witches/wizards under a certain age so they don't catch the same charges as a full-time student on holiday. That would explain why the ministry never came for Harry when he performed underage magic before going to Hogwarts, because of these sub laws. It could potentially explain why no ministry officials were present at the Hut on the Rock while Hagrid was performing magic, for they could've suspected the magic to be Harry's doing. It's possible, however, that Dumbledore could've sent the Ministry a letter in advance explaining Harry's situation, in which case the Ministry would've ignored the happenings both at Privet Dr and the Hut.
How do you argue culp and false imprisonment in the snake scene? As an under age wizard he has no control over the magic used so his actions aren’t unlawful in just being pushed to the ground.
I feel like these should be separate jurisdictions for wizarding and non-wizarding crimes. Also im not sure tue stuff with the snake at the start or blowing up the aunt are crimes per se, as a young wizard isnt in control of their magic. But in the other hand, im pretty sure the civil aviation authority would have something to say about their uncleared flights
It's not theft when they take back the Locket, Harry actually owns that, it was taken by RAB (since he got it, and it was Sirius' who owned it after he died, those making it Harry's when Sirius died) then stolen by Mundungus Fletcher, then Umbridge took it from him, and then Harry got it back.
It's complicated. True Umbridge doesn't own it, but neither did RAB. I think Voldemort stole it too, but he would argue that it was rightfully his as the last Skytherin. Can stolen property become un-stolen by stealing it again?
@Blokewood3 but it's possible harry is also descended from salazar slytherin he and voldy are definitely related tho each descended from a Peverelle brother so the locket could technically be a family heirloom to harry too and the locket would have rightfully been voldys if his mother hadn't needed to sell it
@@elizabethdarroch3000 Good luck trying that defense in court. "I didn't steal it your honor, this property might possibly have once belonged to a distant ancestor of mine. Maybe. I'm not sure."
Just watched this video today. While true, I actually think his sentence would be even lighter than that if we’re being honest. I feel like some of the crimes that contributed to the 44 years he would not have charges pressed for. Some who were on his receiving end were people that either had already somewhat patched things up with him or they wouldn’t care enough to fight him in court over it. I wouldn’t even count out a pardon for him given he was the one who killed Voldemort.
I am hoping for the best with the reboot, calm Dumbledore, smart Ron and a Hermione that isn't perfect but has human flaws. Snape being just the worst and so on :)
@@keshav9261 That too, I just want it to be as close to an 1:1 as possible . Book accurate duelling not flying around like black smoke or Dumbledore and Tom having a beam battle. Less dramatic Quidditch as there were many rule breaking in the films. I don't want things "improved for the screen"
From the battle of the ministry in Movie 5 onwards, they are at war and you could probably classify Harry as a Soldier, so would everything from then on still count as crimes or as acts of war and therefore need to be looked at from that POV?
Maybe, but in the 7th book Voldemort wins and by that point onward Harry is no longer a soldier (though he wouldn't have been anyway, seeing as he is a minor), but rather an insurgent or a terrorist.
The snake incident and blowing up aunt Marge: Harry had no proper control over his magic. That alone should clear him. (especially when you don't want him to become an obscurial). Attacking Snape: Of course, when it comes to "assisting an offender", Harry could only be charged for that as nobody believed Black was actually innocent. Freeing Buckbeak: By the letter of the law, yeah, that would be a crime. But by the letter of the law Buckbeak should never have been convicted in the first place. Dolores + Centaurs: The centaurs didn't act on Harry's orders nor did he ever take their presence (and anger) in mind. Umbridge made the fault herself to insult the centaurs. Now it can be said that Hermione tried to lure her to Grawp hoping he was get her, but even if that's true, it would be Hermione's crime not Harry as he had no idea what Hermione was up to. Harming Malfoy with Sectumsempra: Of course, Harry didn't know what his curse would do, but I do not know if THAT would be any valid excuse a lawyer could use in his favor. Hermione obliviating the Death-Eaters in the coffee shop: Well, my description says it all Now you forgot the most important crime that tops them all, and Harry did it multiple times. The usage of an unforgivable curse. And the usage of any of these curses will get you a one way ticket to Azkaban (Hermione and Barthy Crouch jr (disguised as Alastor Moody) even state that literally in the moves). So Harry would even without all other crimes having to serve a life long sentence in Azkaban anyway. A quick summary on the top of my memory: Cruciatus: - Bellatrix Lestrange, out of anger due to her murdering his godfather. He fails though, and Bellatrix even teaches him how to use an unforgivable curse properly (in order to mock him). - Amycus Carrow, out of anger due to him spitting in McGonagall's face Imperius: - We even see that in the video, but it was not noted as a crime. Killing Curse (aka Avada Kedavra): - The only unforgivable curse none of the trio members ever used at all, for quite obvious reasons.
You should do what if "The Goodnight Killer" was charged for his crimes, some of them include murdering 6 people in the "Black Well Hotel" and possibly even more
At the zoo, HP didn't know what he was doing, he didn't intentionally remove the glass so he would fall in. Magic just comes out in unpredictable ways when magic users are emotionally pressured. He would be off the hook because he was too young to control it. I'm not so sure about the second case when he blows up the lady though lol.
You forgot about the time harry used one of the unforgivable curse the crutiats curse in the order of the phoenix which would have gave him life time in prison
@@velikan420He would be responsible if he could have expected it, but no person would ever expect to randomly make a glass disappear and appear again.
Yeah, exactly what I was thinking. It would be difficult to prove in court (magical or otherwise) that he had any intent to do that. He didn’t know magic was real yet let alone that he was a wizard; even if he had noticed that “weird” things tend to happen to him that doesn’t mean he attempted to take advantage of this penchant for weird shenanigans to free the snake. Just because he was happy about the eventual result, that does not prove that he caused the events.
Compare this incident with Matilda Wormwood (from the Roald Dahl book)’s plot against Miss Trunchbull, in which she used her telekinetic powers. Her guilt is way more clear than Harry’s in the case of freeing the snake. Unlike Harry, Matilda a) was by that point in the story fully aware of her powers, b) had learnt to control them to a good degree, meaning any use of them was more than likely not accidental, and c) her plot against Trunchbull was planned, ie premeditated. By contrast, Harry a) had no idea at the time that he was a wizard/had powers, b) even if he was aware of the tendency for weird things to happen in his vicinity he couldn’t control his “weird luck” to kick in on command in exactly the way he wanted to (so even if he was internally wishing that the snake could be free, he couldn’t have assumed that that wish would be realised as a result), and c) did not go to the zoo with the intention of freeing the snake. Assuming that the reality of Matilda and Harry’s powers could be proved in court, it would be more reasonable for Matilda to be found guilty of her plot against Trunchbull than for Harry to be found guilty for freeing the snake. Either way, both are young kids, not even teenagers, when these incidents happened, so I doubt they’d get taken to court (unless Trunchbull actually died; her fate is left kind of unclear but I assume she was just scared out of town).
@@velikan420Still, according to the rules of the ministry, he isn't responsible for using magic until he goes to Hogwarts because he can't really control it
5:08 I don't remember if he did that after finding out the truth or not, but if after then was he really assisting an offender? Edit: 5:47 Ok, I guess it doesn't matter.
I'm not sure if he can actually be charged for the snake escaping or false imprisonment as he, despite being pretty happy with the result, didn't really do it on purpose. He doesn't even know that magic is real, yet alone that he can cast it. Same with his aunt, he didn't mean to inflate her, it just happened. his magic reacted to his emotions automatically, hence why he didn't need to use a wand for either event.
1:00 it was accidental magic, 2:01 dobby did way worse before, harry did almost nothing, 3:24 the teacher was supposed to defeat the basilisk so they just took him with them, 3:58 it was an accident (he used his magic in accident, without wand), 5:28 it wasnt a fair decision (from the justice) but alr, 5:49 sirius was inocent, 6:51 she spied all forms of comunications but not her own fireplace and harry would never be able to go against the centaurs: theyre very strong and both of them werent with wands, 7:11 they entered it as guests in a guest entrance and he was triyng to save a life, 7:40 he didnt knew that this spell would do that and he didnt thought the spells he found in the book vere as dark, 8:29 they were just stunned and she just obliviated the memories of seeing them, 8:52 they were falsily accused to be bad ppl and couldnt reach mundungus to have the horcrux that they wanted to destroy to save the world from Voldemort. Also, he was under 18 in almost every part (u didnt counted imperio as life-sentence, so its not magical world rules) and when not, it was in a war and he was doing it to stop the war.
1:00 - thanks that very much tru2 2:01 - yes but that doesn't mean he had the right to do this. 3:24 Lockhard had the right to change his mind, and withdraw at any time, they forced him down. Still kidnapping. 3:58 - yes thanks for pointing that out. 5: 49 - I am not sure if that changes anything or not. 6:51 - I would like to add that, 1 he never harmed her and Hermine came up with everything. Plus this was also done in self defence. Nor had harry any obligation to save her, since any action he could have take would have put him at risk. 8:52 - would add that he said "Find them" not "Kidnapp them" He never told anyone to commit a crime. But he went along with it, when they came with them. It's tricky. I don't think the fact that they were accused of anything would change much. But it was directly a part of the whole war, so maybe?
Taking someone into the forbiddon forrest and getting them attacked by centaurs may be illegle for someone else, but if it's umbridge then pls take her away, she shouldn't even be considored human.....
I would argue Harry used accidental magic in the Sorcerer's Stone, he had no idea he was even a wizard at the time and the Ministry of Magic won't go after a child for doing it
1:01 harry did that accidentally and Dudley got himself in there by pressing his face against the glass 1:22 he was excused from a lot of this stuff 2:01 if somebody caused you to loose a bone and ingure you would you also threaten the thing responisble, what harry said was very just and wouldn’t of done it 2:32 it was a little sleepy juice and they were fine, they weren’t kidnapped but hidden till they awaken 2:59 this time it’s a joke Jim, a lot of people suffer from this every year, but harry and Ron just asked Draco some questions then left 3:29 kidnapping once again isn’t valid here as 3 of them jumped in there and Ron just made sure he stayed away from sharp objects till they left 3:58 the movie said these 2 actions wouldn’t send him to Azkaban 4:25 anyone could’ve used that entrance and people could’ve used the entrance before him
1:22 But it assumes he wasn't. 2:01 His life wasn't being threatened and he could tell an authority, so that's why it's illegal I think 2:32 Doesn't make it legal 2:59 Same as earlier 3:29 Not sure what you're trying to say, but this could be justified I think because they were saving Ginny 4:25 I don't think it justifies it.
Slavery is only illegal if your slave is human. People still enslave animals all over the world. Such as horses as transportation, or bulls to plow fields. (Although cars and tractors are much more popular in more developed nations.) Since house elves are not humans, their enslavement is not only legal by wizarding law, but by British law, too.
Very true. It wasn’t THAT long ago when humans were enslaved, and that was allowed until it was outlawed. The wizarding world has its own laws, so if slavery ever gets outlawed, only then would Harry or other owners of house elves be in trouble
Many of these would not be considered crimes and no reasonable court of law would punish him for them. Those include: Accidental magic School fights that result in no permanent damage Breaking school rules (these would result in school detention, rarely being expelled. And Madam Hooch doesn't have the authority to expel people.) Fighting someone who is currently in the process of commiting crimes against him, such as the Dursleys, Dobby, or Lockhart. No jail time for illegally piloting a car? 5:05 Technically, he is assisting an escaped convict. But since that guy was imprisoned without trial, one could also argue that anybody trying to capture him is trying to commit false imprisonment, and Harry is protecting his rights.
Well, so did the Marauders and not to mention Voldemort himself (the latter even committing murder during his school years). And they too always got away with that.
It would never matter what Harry had done anyways, because he’s the chosen one, not that it makes him exempt but Dumbledore would never allow Harry to be expelled, he’s too important to not receive proper education. His life was hard enough already
this is a cool perspective because when ur watching the movies, u just kind of dismiss all the bad stuff he does because its mostly for the greater good
I dont get it. Its if harry potter was charged for his crimes in real life or in his world? because he used Imperium and this is one of the unforgivble curses(and sime more things).
1:56 Technically saying that if he didn’t leave before his bones healed back he might strangle him doesn’t count as threats. While this may sound dumb there are two things that make it not hold up. One he said if he doesn’t leave by x time which means there is an if there and two he said might. These two things make it not count and the reason I know this is because my brother is schizophrenic and made similar threats and when we called the cops to get help they said they couldn’t do anything because of those two reason. We had another issue where he said similar stuff in a fast food place full of people so plenty of witnesses and the cops gave us the same reason. (Different county than the first one)
You missed one, in Goblet Of Fire Mad-Eye Moody (barty crouch Jr) said the unforgivable spells is a one-way ticket to Azkaban. - Crucio - Imperio - Avada Kedavra In order of the pheonix after Sirius dies and Harry chases Bellatrix he says the Crucio spell.
With some stuff I agree, but most of this is stuff you would just get expelled for or get baned from ever using a wand again, like Hagrid. And you have to keep in mind that most of this happend, while he was a minor, so there you would also have to adjust the verdicts.
In movie 5 Harry uses the Cruciatus Curse on Bellatrix, as an unforgivable that is a life time in Azkaban and you showed him use the Imperious Cruse on the goblin that would have the same results, there could be a argument that goblins don't have the same rights as wizards and that it would not be lifetime using it on a "magical creature"
I think it worked, she did fall on the ground (at least in the movie, can't remember the book scene right now.) it didn't work well but it still did something.
@@TFAric it's been a while since I read the books, but I seem to recall her not being that affected, laughing it off and telling harry he had to mean it
Magic performed by wandless wizard children is not criminalized, as Snape explains to Lily in a flashback. It is basically presumed to be accidental. This deference extends to some pretty serious conduct, as we see there are no consequences for the young Tom Riddle committing theft, animal cruelty, and perhaps even kidnap and torture.
0:59 Culpable and reckless conduct -> max punishment = life in prison, but the actual punishment depends on the circumstances. I've found an example of a 500 pound fine with no jail for throwing a cone of a bridge, causing an injury on a woman. Since no harm was actually done here, I'm gonna go with that. The false imprisonment was accidental and thus included in the reckless conduct. 1:20 I agree: breaking school rules -> expelled 2:00 Elves have no rights in the wizard world. -> no charge 2:31 You're using the Wizard prison of Azkaban for their sentences under the UK jurisdiction. That ain't right: 2× administering noxious substance + 2× kidnapping -> 2+y in British prison 2:58 Identity theft -> 6+m in British prison 3:28 kidnapping + reckless endangerment/conduct [taking Lockhart to the COS] -> 1+y in British prison + since the Chamber is very deadly, I'm gonna go with the max punishment of life in British prison. 3:57 Aunt Marge was an accident, so reckless conduct. "Keep away from me" is not assault, more of a threat. -> The severity of the reckless conduct is hard to determine, but since it was accidental, I'm gonna go easy on him and just give him the 500 pound fine. + 6+m in British prison 4:25 Breach of privacy + criminal trespass -> 6+m in British prison 4:43 3× assault -> 6+m in British prison 5:08 Battery + assisting an offender -> I'll grant that this is not British, but magic jurisdiction, so yeah, 1y+ in Azkaban 5:28 Preventing course of justice -> Also magic jurisdiction, so 6+m in Azkaban 5:46 Assist in escape of lawful custody -> Magic jurisdiction, so 1+y in Azkaban 6:50 Burglary + Assessory to kidnapping + not assisting escape from danger -> >4.5+y in British prison 7:10 Theft + burglary + flying unregistered vehicles + flying with no license -> I'm gonna go with 5y in prison for the flying, 'cause that's the punishment for flying a drone 5.5+y in British prison + 1+y in Azkaban [The burglary is in a wizard government facility, so their jurisdiction 7:39 Grievous bodily harm -> 1.5+y in British prison 8:07 Self defense + having others pretend they're him (identity fraud) + flying unregistered vehicle -> I'm gonna go light on him with the identity fraud, so minimum of 5y -> 10y in British prison Also, at this point, Voldemort is in control of the wizarding government and Harry is a fugitive. However, at the time of the story, there was no extra punishment for being a fugitive. 8:28 Actual bodily harm -> 2+y in British prison. Also, technically, those people, as well as Voldemort at 8:07 are officers of the law, as explained above. Therefore, he is not acting in self defense, but actually 2× resisting arrest + 3× attacking an officer of the law -> 2×2y + 3×2y in Azkaban -> 10y in Azkaban 8:51 Elves have no rights, so no coercion and -1 kidnapping. 1× kidnapping -> 1+y in British prison 9:18 3× battery + 3× kidnapping -> 4.5+y in Azkaban [they're members of the wizarding government] 9:34 Identity theft + burglary -> 1.5+y in Azkaban [wizard government] 10:00 Causing public nuisance + contempt of court -> 1y in Azkaban 10:08 Actual bodily harm + theft -> 1.5+y in Azkaban 10:44 Kidnapping + bank robbery + using unforgivable curse -> life + 3+y in Azkaban 11:03 Manslaughter + theft -> 2.5+y in Azkaban 11:30 4× manslaughter + aggrevated criminal damage -> 9+y in Azkaban Also: he tried to cast Crucio on Bellatrix -> life in Azkaban Also also: he stole and flew the flying car -> 5.25y in British prison Also also also: He was flying on Buckbeak, another unregistered vehicle -> 5y in British prison Total crimes: > British jurisdiction: - 3× Culpable and reckless conduct - 2× Administering noxious substance - 4× Kidnapping - Identity theft - Threatening - Breach of privacy - Criminal trespass - 3× Assault - Burglary - Assessory to kidnapping - Not assisting escape from danger - 2× Theft - 4× Flying unregistered vehicles + with no license - Grievous bodily harm - Identity fraud - Actual bodily harm > Wizard jurisdiction: - Breaking school rules (countless accounts) - Battery - Assisting an offender - Preventing course of justice - Assist in escape of lawful custody - 2× Burglary - 2× resisting arrest - 3× attacking an officer of the law - 3× battery - 4× Kidnapping - Identity theft - Causing public nuisance - Contempt of court - Actual bodily harm - 2× Theft - Bank robbery - 2× Unforgivable curse - 5× Manslaughter - Aggrevated criminal damage Total sentence: Expelled from Hogwarts, 39.75y + life in British prison, 56.5y + 2× life in Azkaban, 1000 pound fine.
I don't know how much it contributes to the sentence, but the first crime is clearly unintentional. Edit: I think a threat of strangulation is more a threat of assault than a threat to kill. Edit 2: I think the snowballs + pants pulling would even if technically illegal would get laughed out of any court room, and would at worst result in community service.
At 7:40: I see the argument that Draco could claim he acted in self-defense, but if you are armed and agressively accuse someone of a crime and that person draws a weapon and starts shooting, is it grievous bodily harm if you shoot back and injure that person? Maybe Harry should be charged for the way he confronted Malfoy, but the curse itself was self-defense in my opinion.
If someone is using self-defense against you and you caused them to use self-defense purposefully or by recklessness, you are not allowed to use self-defense.
Does this mean if you were reckless and caused someone to panic and try to kill you all you can legally do is allow him to kill you? Seems pretty absurd to me but since I am not an expert I don't know whether this is true.@@JKBDTS
@@patrickdematosribeiro1845 If that guy is just paranoic, then he's not using self-defense, he's trying to murder you and you are allowed to defend yourself.
I mean idk if it would count as torture since it didnt work but it would still have been illegal(depending on if the spell would have to be preformed correctly for it to be counted as the use of said spell) but during the heist those spells were legal under voldemorts rule so iguess those wouldnt count Potentially + 1 life sentence?

Lol fr it didnt suit him
YES
It's not theft when they take back the Locket, Harry actually owns that, it was taken by RAB (since he got it, and it was Sirius' who owned it after he died, those making it Harry's when Sirius died) then stolen by Mundungus Fletcher, then Umbridge took it from him, and then Harry got it back.
It's complicated. True Umbridge doesn't own it, but neither did RAB. I think Voldemort stole it too, but he would argue that it was rightfully his as the last Skytherin. Can stolen property become un-stolen by stealing it again?
@@Blokewood3 I wouldn't say you can steal a Horcrux, they are kinda their own really, not really things anymore
@Blokewood3 but it's possible harry is also descended from salazar slytherin he and voldy are definitely related tho each descended from a Peverelle brother so the locket could technically be a family heirloom to harry too and the locket would have rightfully been voldys if his mother hadn't needed to sell it

"Is that all?" As if it's not over half his life
@@flextape467 It's not.
Wizards live to 137 on average in Harry Potter :p
1:01 As Harry didn’t have a wand at that time he shouldn’t face consequences as he didn’t know what he was doing.
The incident with the python at the zoo: Harry wouldn't go to jail for something he did as a kid that was entirely an accident.
3:28 They kidnapped him, because they thought he may be needed to save Ginny, so maybe self-defense for that as well.
That's not how that works. Although I think he should get the lightest sentence because of circumstances.
@CJClark-dh2jr It can't be an under duress crime or sth like that?
Only 44 years thats light for the amount of crimes
Just watched this video today. While true, I actually think his sentence would be even lighter than that if we’re being honest. I feel like some of the crimes that contributed to the 44 years he would not have charges pressed for. Some who were on his receiving end were people that either had already somewhat patched things up with him or they wouldn’t care enough to fight him in court over it. I wouldn’t even count out a pardon for him given he was the one who killed Voldemort.
But in azkaban with dementors staring you down every minute. I don't think so. Sirius Black went insane from just 12 years

I don't want things "improved for the screen"
From the battle of the ministry in Movie 5 onwards, they are at war and you could probably classify Harry as a Soldier, so would everything from then on still count as crimes or as acts of war and therefore need to be looked at from that POV?
Maybe, but in the 7th book Voldemort wins and by that point onward Harry is no longer a soldier (though he wouldn't have been anyway, seeing as he is a minor), but rather an insurgent or a terrorist.
The snake incident and blowing up aunt Marge: Harry had no proper control over his magic. That alone should clear him. (especially when you don't want him to become an obscurial).
Attacking Snape: Of course, when it comes to "assisting an offender", Harry could only be charged for that as nobody believed Black was actually innocent.
Freeing Buckbeak: By the letter of the law, yeah, that would be a crime. But by the letter of the law Buckbeak should never have been convicted in the first place.
Dolores + Centaurs: The centaurs didn't act on Harry's orders nor did he ever take their presence (and anger) in mind. Umbridge made the fault herself to insult the centaurs. Now it can be said that Hermione tried to lure her to Grawp hoping he was get her, but even if that's true, it would be Hermione's crime not Harry as he had no idea what Hermione was up to.
Harming Malfoy with Sectumsempra: Of course, Harry didn't know what his curse would do, but I do not know if THAT would be any valid excuse a lawyer could use in his favor.
Hermione obliviating the Death-Eaters in the coffee shop: Well, my description says it all
Now you forgot the most important crime that tops them all, and Harry did it multiple times. The usage of an unforgivable curse. And the usage of any of these curses will get you a one way ticket to Azkaban (Hermione and Barthy Crouch jr (disguised as Alastor Moody) even state that literally in the moves). So Harry would even without all other crimes having to serve a life long sentence in Azkaban anyway.
A quick summary on the top of my memory:
Cruciatus:
- Bellatrix Lestrange, out of anger due to her murdering his godfather. He fails though, and Bellatrix even teaches him how to use an unforgivable curse properly (in order to mock him).
- Amycus Carrow, out of anger due to him spitting in McGonagall's face
Imperius:
- We even see that in the video, but it was not noted as a crime.
Killing Curse (aka Avada Kedavra):
- The only unforgivable curse none of the trio members ever used at all, for quite obvious reasons.
Ron tried to on nagini
POV: me when the headteacher finds out what I do outside of school.
Harry Potter and the 44 years of hard time
That part at the end with Vernon saying "Justice!" was brilliant.
You should do what if "The Goodnight Killer" was charged for his crimes, some of them include murdering 6 people in the "Black Well Hotel" and possibly even more
At the zoo, HP didn't know what he was doing, he didn't intentionally remove the glass so he would fall in. Magic just comes out in unpredictable ways when magic users are emotionally pressured. He would be off the hook because he was too young to control it.
I'm not so sure about the second case when he blows up the lady though lol.
You forgot about the time harry used one of the unforgivable curse the crutiats curse in the order of the phoenix which would have gave him life time in prison
"You're a criminal Harry....
You're a hairy criminal."
And a criminal who did something right and deserves pardon
You forgot the iM A wOT
I love how the thumbnail says the 12 year old harry is 7 feet tall. Makes sense
Lmao I noticed it too
So we're just gonna ignore the fact that he used the cruciatus curse on Bellatrix in OOTP for which he would get life in Azkaban?
1:00 Should he really be charged with that if he didn't even know he's a wizard and he did it on accident? Unless I'm missing context.
Just because he didn't intent to do it doesn't mean it didn't happen and he wasn't responsible for it.
@@velikan420He would be responsible if he could have expected it, but no person would ever expect to randomly make a glass disappear and appear again.
Yeah, exactly what I was thinking. It would be difficult to prove in court (magical or otherwise) that he had any intent to do that. He didn’t know magic was real yet let alone that he was a wizard; even if he had noticed that “weird” things tend to happen to him that doesn’t mean he attempted to take advantage of this penchant for weird shenanigans to free the snake. Just because he was happy about the eventual result, that does not prove that he caused the events.
Compare this incident with Matilda Wormwood (from the Roald Dahl book)’s plot against Miss Trunchbull, in which she used her telekinetic powers. Her guilt is way more clear than Harry’s in the case of freeing the snake. Unlike Harry, Matilda a) was by that point in the story fully aware of her powers, b) had learnt to control them to a good degree, meaning any use of them was more than likely not accidental, and c) her plot against Trunchbull was planned, ie premeditated. By contrast, Harry a) had no idea at the time that he was a wizard/had powers, b) even if he was aware of the tendency for weird things to happen in his vicinity he couldn’t control his “weird luck” to kick in on command in exactly the way he wanted to (so even if he was internally wishing that the snake could be free, he couldn’t have assumed that that wish would be realised as a result), and c) did not go to the zoo with the intention of freeing the snake. Assuming that the reality of Matilda and Harry’s powers could be proved in court, it would be more reasonable for Matilda to be found guilty of her plot against Trunchbull than for Harry to be found guilty for freeing the snake.
Either way, both are young kids, not even teenagers, when these incidents happened, so I doubt they’d get taken to court (unless Trunchbull actually died; her fate is left kind of unclear but I assume she was just scared out of town).
@@velikan420Still, according to the rules of the ministry, he isn't responsible for using magic until he goes to Hogwarts because he can't really control it
5:08 I don't remember if he did that after finding out the truth or not, but if after then was he really assisting an offender?
Edit: 5:47 Ok, I guess it doesn't matter.
- Mr. Judge! Harry's personality at these moments was being controlled by you-know-who in the form of a horcrux!
- All charges are dismissed.
I'm not sure if he can actually be charged for the snake escaping or false imprisonment as he, despite being pretty happy with the result, didn't really do it on purpose. He doesn't even know that magic is real, yet alone that he can cast it.
Same with his aunt, he didn't mean to inflate her, it just happened.
his magic reacted to his emotions automatically, hence why he didn't need to use a wand for either event.
More like "if Harry wasn't the chosen one" and didn't have the headmaster in his pocket (or vice versa)
1:00 it was accidental magic, 2:01 dobby did way worse before, harry did almost nothing, 3:24 the teacher was supposed to defeat the basilisk so they just took him with them, 3:58 it was an accident (he used his magic in accident, without wand), 5:28 it wasnt a fair decision (from the justice) but alr, 5:49 sirius was inocent, 6:51 she spied all forms of comunications but not her own fireplace and harry would never be able to go against the centaurs: theyre very strong and both of them werent with wands, 7:11 they entered it as guests in a guest entrance and he was triyng to save a life, 7:40 he didnt knew that this spell would do that and he didnt thought the spells he found in the book vere as dark, 8:29 they were just stunned and she just obliviated the memories of seeing them, 8:52 they were falsily accused to be bad ppl and couldnt reach mundungus to have the horcrux that they wanted to destroy to save the world from Voldemort. Also, he was under 18 in almost every part (u didnt counted imperio as life-sentence, so its not magical world rules) and when not, it was in a war and he was doing it to stop the war.
Just because someone did worse, doesn't mean it's legal to do these stuff. Also he was reckless for using the spell on Draco.
1:00 - thanks that very much tru2
2:01 - yes but that doesn't mean he had the right to do this.
3:24 Lockhard had the right to change his mind, and withdraw at any time, they forced him down. Still kidnapping.
3:58 - yes thanks for pointing that out.
5: 49 - I am not sure if that changes anything or not.
6:51 - I would like to add that, 1 he never harmed her and Hermine came up with everything. Plus this was also done in self defence. Nor had harry any obligation to save her, since any action he could have take would have put him at risk.
8:52 - would add that he said "Find them" not "Kidnapp them" He never told anyone to commit a crime. But he went along with it, when they came with them. It's tricky. I don't think the fact that they were accused of anything would change much. But it was directly a part of the whole war, so maybe?
He knew Sectumsempra was for enemies. He did not know what exactly it did, but he knew enough.
Taking someone into the forbiddon forrest and getting them attacked by centaurs may be illegle for someone else, but if it's umbridge then pls take her away, she shouldn't even be considored human.....
Ah, yes.
Expelled for destroying the dark lord and restoring peace in both the muggle world & wizarding world...
I would argue Harry used accidental magic in the Sorcerer's Stone, he had no idea he was even a wizard at the time and the Ministry of Magic won't go after a child for doing it

2:59 this time it’s a joke Jim, a lot of people suffer from this every year, but harry and Ron just asked Draco some questions then left
3:29 kidnapping once again isn’t valid here as 3 of them jumped in there and Ron just made sure he stayed away from sharp objects till they left

1:22 But it assumes he wasn't.
2:01 His life wasn't being threatened and he could tell an authority, so that's why it's illegal I think

Slavery is only illegal if your slave is human. People still enslave animals all over the world. Such as horses as transportation, or bulls to plow fields. (Although cars and tractors are much more popular in more developed nations.)
Since house elves are not humans, their enslavement is not only legal by wizarding law, but by British law, too.
Very true. It wasn’t THAT long ago when humans were enslaved, and that was allowed until it was outlawed. The wizarding world has its own laws, so if slavery ever gets outlawed, only then would Harry or other owners of house elves be in trouble
Harry kills Voldemort, all considering him as a hero and from all that charges in conclusion being pardoned.
Next one is if Cloud Strife was charged for his crimes.
Many of these would not be considered crimes and no reasonable court of law would punish him for them. Those include:
Accidental magic
School fights that result in no permanent damage
Breaking school rules (these would result in school detention, rarely being expelled. And Madam Hooch doesn't have the authority to expel people.)
Fighting someone who is currently in the process of commiting crimes against him, such as the Dursleys, Dobby, or Lockhart.
No jail time for illegally piloting a car?
5:05 Technically, he is assisting an escaped convict. But since that guy was imprisoned without trial, one could also argue that anybody trying to capture him is trying to commit false imprisonment, and Harry is protecting his rights.
3:40 perfect cut during Marge’s balloon scene, lmao

@@DUAPLAYZ and he save the school and lives everytime, so
Well, so did the Marauders and not to mention Voldemort himself (the latter even committing murder during his school years). And they too always got away with that.
It would never matter what Harry had done anyways, because he’s the chosen one, not that it makes him exempt but Dumbledore would never allow Harry to be expelled, he’s too important to not receive proper education. His life was hard enough already
Or Ron
That's actually very little considering how many crimes there were on this list
I think you forgot the 2 times Harry used the cruciatus cures, which would’ve landed him 5 years each
Crucio is actually punishable by life imprisonment. He only actually used it one time that counted, though.
Hagrid: You’re a criminal Harry.
Harry: I’m a what?
this is a cool perspective because when ur watching the movies, u just kind of dismiss all the bad stuff he does because its mostly for the greater good
I dont get it. Its if harry potter was charged for his crimes in real life or in his world? because he used Imperium and this is one of the unforgivble curses(and sime more things).

how about crimes that umbridge had done, her changes of them would be 10 times worse then harry's.
"harry potter was charged for his crimes, fifty points to griffindor"

1:56 Technically saying that if he didn’t leave before his bones healed back he might strangle him doesn’t count as threats.
While this may sound dumb there are two things that make it not hold up. One he said if he doesn’t leave by x time which means there is an if there and two he said might.
These two things make it not count and the reason I know this is because my brother is schizophrenic and made similar threats and when we called the cops to get help they said they couldn’t do anything because of those two reason.
We had another issue where he said similar stuff in a fast food place full of people so plenty of witnesses and the cops gave us the same reason. (Different county than the first one)

Dumbledore after seeing this video: "900000000 points to gryffindor!"

With some stuff I agree, but most of this is stuff you would just get expelled for or get baned from ever using a wand again, like Hagrid. And you have to keep in mind that most of this happend, while he was a minor, so there you would also have to adjust the verdicts.
How would he got just 2 years for manslaughter???
Minimum
In movie 5 Harry uses the Cruciatus Curse on Bellatrix, as an unforgivable that is a life time in Azkaban and you showed him use the Imperious Cruse on the goblin that would have the same results, there could be a argument that goblins don't have the same rights as wizards and that it would not be lifetime using it on a "magical creature"
Iirc doesn't the cruciatus curse fail, so it would only be "attempted cursing" or something lol

Magic performed by wandless wizard children is not criminalized, as Snape explains to Lily in a flashback. It is basically presumed to be accidental. This deference extends to some pretty serious conduct, as we see there are no consequences for the young Tom Riddle committing theft, animal cruelty, and perhaps even kidnap and torture.

0:59 Culpable and reckless conduct -> max punishment = life in prison, but the actual punishment depends on the circumstances. I've found an example of a 500 pound fine with no jail for throwing a cone of a bridge, causing an injury on a woman. Since no harm was actually done here, I'm gonna go with that. The false imprisonment was accidental and thus included in the reckless conduct.
1:20 I agree: breaking school rules -> expelled
2:00 Elves have no rights in the wizard world. -> no charge
2:31 You're using the Wizard prison of Azkaban for their sentences under the UK jurisdiction. That ain't right: 2× administering noxious substance + 2× kidnapping -> 2+y in British prison
2:58 Identity theft -> 6+m in British prison
3:28 kidnapping + reckless endangerment/conduct [taking Lockhart to the COS] -> 1+y in British prison + since the Chamber is very deadly, I'm gonna go with the max punishment of life in British prison.
3:57 Aunt Marge was an accident, so reckless conduct. "Keep away from me" is not assault, more of a threat. -> The severity of the reckless conduct is hard to determine, but since it was accidental, I'm gonna go easy on him and just give him the 500 pound fine. + 6+m in British prison
4:25 Breach of privacy + criminal trespass -> 6+m in British prison
4:43 3× assault -> 6+m in British prison
5:08 Battery + assisting an offender -> I'll grant that this is not British, but magic jurisdiction, so yeah, 1y+ in Azkaban
5:28 Preventing course of justice -> Also magic jurisdiction, so 6+m in Azkaban
5:46 Assist in escape of lawful custody -> Magic jurisdiction, so 1+y in Azkaban
6:50 Burglary + Assessory to kidnapping + not assisting escape from danger -> >4.5+y in British prison
7:10 Theft + burglary + flying unregistered vehicles + flying with no license -> I'm gonna go with 5y in prison for the flying, 'cause that's the punishment for flying a drone 5.5+y in British prison + 1+y in Azkaban [The burglary is in a wizard government facility, so their jurisdiction
7:39 Grievous bodily harm -> 1.5+y in British prison
8:07 Self defense + having others pretend they're him (identity fraud) + flying unregistered vehicle -> I'm gonna go light on him with the identity fraud, so minimum of 5y -> 10y in British prison
Also, at this point, Voldemort is in control of the wizarding government and Harry is a fugitive. However, at the time of the story, there was no extra punishment for being a fugitive.
8:28 Actual bodily harm -> 2+y in British prison.
Also, technically, those people, as well as Voldemort at 8:07 are officers of the law, as explained above. Therefore, he is not acting in self defense, but actually 2× resisting arrest + 3× attacking an officer of the law -> 2×2y + 3×2y in Azkaban -> 10y in Azkaban
8:51 Elves have no rights, so no coercion and -1 kidnapping. 1× kidnapping -> 1+y in British prison
9:18 3× battery + 3× kidnapping -> 4.5+y in Azkaban [they're members of the wizarding government]
9:34 Identity theft + burglary -> 1.5+y in Azkaban [wizard government]
10:00 Causing public nuisance + contempt of court -> 1y in Azkaban
10:08 Actual bodily harm + theft -> 1.5+y in Azkaban
10:44 Kidnapping + bank robbery + using unforgivable curse -> life + 3+y in Azkaban
11:03 Manslaughter + theft -> 2.5+y in Azkaban
11:30 4× manslaughter + aggrevated criminal damage -> 9+y in Azkaban

It does make you wonder what the wizarding laws surrounding the use of potions such as the Polyjuice Potion are.

fun fact but Harry only used the Sectumsempra curse because Malfoy started saying Crucio and Harry didn't want to be hit by an unforgivable curse
At 7:40: I see the argument that Draco could claim he acted in self-defense, but if you are armed and agressively accuse someone of a crime and that person draws a weapon and starts shooting, is it grievous bodily harm if you shoot back and injure that person? Maybe Harry should be charged for the way he confronted Malfoy, but the curse itself was self-defense in my opinion.
If someone is using self-defense against you and you caused them to use self-defense purposefully or by recklessness, you are not allowed to use self-defense.
