==Overview==
 
'''''Bartemius "Barty" Crouch, Sr.''''' led the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Ministry of Magic|Department of Magical Law Enforcement]] during [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort/]]'s first rise to power (apparently in the 1960s). During this period he became a ruthless leader, doing things such as giving [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Auror|Auror]]s the power to kill. He later became the head of the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Ministry of Magic|Department of International Magical Co-operation]] after losing status in the Wizarding world, due to the common belief that he drove his son to joining the [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Death Eaters/]].
 
==Role in the books==
 
===[[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Goblet of Fire|Goblet of Fire]]===
 
Mr. Crouch is first mentioned as being [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Percy Weasley/]]'s boss at the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Ministry of Magic|Ministry]]. Mr. Crouch is apparently the head of the Department of International Magical Cooperation, and Percy is writing a report on substandard cauldrons being imported from Europe for him.
 
We first see Mr. Crouch at the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Quidditch World Cup|Quidditch World Cup]], where he is apparently in charge of organizing the international aspects of the competition. He stops at the Weasley campsite when [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Arthur Weasley/]] calls him over; Percy scrambles to make him a cup of tea, which Mr. Crouch accepts, calling Percy "Weatherby". He then corrals [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ludovic Bagman|Ludo Bagman]], and they [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Apparation|apparate]] off to attend to some detail.
 
After the appearance of the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Morsmordre|Dark Mark]], Mr. Crouch is in the team of wizards that attempt to [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Stupefy|Stun]] the wizard who produced the Mark. Mr. Crouch is suspicious of everyone there present, and is shocked when [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Amos Diggory/]] discovers his [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/House Elf|House-elf]], [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Winky/]], at the apparent source of the incantation. Arthur Weasley, another of the wizards in that group, points out that Mr. Crouch has accused the two people there present least likely to be involved with the Death Eaters: [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter/]], and his own house-elf. Mr. Crouch goes off into the woods to search for other evidence, and on his return, fires Winky.
 
We next see Mr. Crouch when he arrives at the school on 30 October to be introduced as one of the five judges in the upcoming [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Triwizard Tournament|Triwizard Tournament]], and again on the following night when the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Goblet of Fire|Goblet of Fire]] selects the Champions of each school who will take part in the Tournament. Surprisingly, the Goblet selects a fourth wizard, Harry Potter. Called upon to interpret the rule book, Crouch says that if the wizard's name comes out of the Goblet, then he is required to compete. With this settled, though to nobody's satisfaction, Crouch goes on to explain that he will not be telling them what they will face in the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/First Task|First Task]] of the Tournament, because ability to think quickly and bravely is necessary to a wizard, but he does give them the date when it will occur.
 
As he steps into the firelight, Harry notices that Mr. Crouch seems ill; apparently [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Professor Dumbledore]] sees this as well, because he asks Crouch to stay the night. Crouch refuses, saying he has to get back.
 
Crouch is then present to the Weighing of the Wands ceremony, in which [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ollivander|Mr. Ollivander]] checks the wands of the four Champions to see that they are in full working order. Harry thinks he still looks a bit ill.
 
Crouch is present again during the First Task, and he awards Harry 9 out of 10 points for retrieving the golden egg from his dragon.
 
At the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Yule Ball|Yule Ball]], Crouch is absent; Percy Weasley has taken his place, saying that Mr. Crouch is tired and is staying at home. He is sending instructions by Owl Post, and Percy is just glad that Crouch has an assistant that he can trust enough that he can get the rest he needs. [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Hermione Granger|Hermione]] suggests that he wouldn't be so tired if he hadn't summarily and unjustly fired his Elf; Percy tries to defend Crouch's actions.
 
Percy is again substituting for Mr. Crouch at the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Second Task|Second Task]]. Shortly afterwards, Harry, [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron Weasley|Ron]], and Hermione visit [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sirius Black/]], who is living in a cave near [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Hogsmeade|Hogsmeade]] with [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Buckbeak/]]. Sirius says that it is very unusual for Mr. Crouch to be taking a vacation; he was always very dedicated to his work at the Ministry.
 
In late May, Harry is taken aside by [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Viktor Krum/]] for a private conversation under the eaves of the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Forbidden Forest|Forbidden Forest]]. As they finish their conversation, a disheveled Mr. Crouch appears, talking to the trees, and in apparent sane moments demanding to see Dumbledore. Leaving Krum to guard him, Harry runs off to collect Dumbledore, an action which is delayed by [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Professor Snape]]. By the time Dumbledore and Harry return to the Forbidden Forest, Krum has been Stunned and Mr. Crouch is gone.
 
Shortly after this, Harry is left alone in Dumbledore's office as Professor Dumbledore, [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Alastor Moody|Professor Moody]], and [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Cornelius Fudge/]] go to investigate the place where Crouch was found. Harry discovers Dumbledore's [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Pensieve|Pensieve]], and ends up viewing three trials at the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Wizengamot|Wizengamot]] in which Crouch presided. We see Crouch considering whether to release [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Igor Karkaroff/]] from [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Azkaban|Azkaban]] based on the names of supposedly uncaught Death Eaters he has given them; presiding over the session where Ludo Bagman was released; and the session where [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Bellatrix Lestrange/]], [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rabastan Lestrange/]], [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rodolphus Lestrange/]], and [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Barty Crouch Jr./]], his own son, were sentenced for the torture of [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Frank Longbottom|Frank]] and [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Alice Longbottom/]].
 
Fudge apparently shortly opens an inquiry into how Crouch could have been apparently so very ill without anyone in the Ministry knowing. Percy is evidently called in as part of this inquiry; as a result, Fudge himself ends up judging the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Third Task|Third Task]].
 
Following the Third Task, when Barty Crouch Jr. is revealed, we are given some additional information. When Crouch went off into the forest after the discovery of Winky under the Dark Mark, he had found Barty Stunned under his [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Invisibility Cloak|Invisibility Cloak]] and sent him home. He had fired Winky, not for being associated with the Dark Mark, but for allowing Barty to escape and get himself a wand. Shortly afterwards [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort/]] and [[..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Peter Pettigrew|Wormtail]] had managed to put Crouch under the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Imperio|Imperius curse]], and he had been under the Imperius Curse during the selection of the Champions and during the First Task. As Wormtail's control started getting tenuous, Crouch was confined to his home, where Voldemort and Wormtail were also staying. He had managed to escape, had made his way to the Forbidden Forest where Harry had seen him, and had then been killed by Barty, and his body hidden.
