Harry Potter: What Happened To Everyone Who Escaped Azkaban
6. Walden Macnair
Walden Macnair managed to avoid imprisonment after the First Wizarding War by claiming he’d been acting under the influence of the Imperius Curse.
He became an executioner for the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures, and as such, he made a brief appearance in The Prisoner of Azkaban when he was required to execute Buckbeak. Following Voldemort’s return, Macnair reunited with his master but was arrested a year later for his actions during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries.
He escaped, however, during the mass breakout in the summer of 1997 and participated in the Battle of Hogwarts the following year. During the conflict, he was thrown by Hagrid and knocked unconscious shortly before Voldemort’s downfall. Like many other Death Eaters, he then returned to Azkaban for his crimes.
