Why didn't Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Lupin collectively put their memories of the unveiling of Wormtail into a pensieve?
My question is pretty much summed up in the title, but I'd like to add a little more to it. If all four of them had the exact same recollection of the truth (Wormtail being revealed as the true killer) - why didn't they extract their memories and put them into a pensieve?
I mean sure, memories can be tampered with, but we have learned that even skilled wizards (such as Slughorn) are not able to modify their memories without it being apparent.
It would be very hard to believe that four people, three of whom were underage wizards, were able to modify and perfect their memories to all be the exact same recollection of the events that happened in the Shrieking Shack.
So then why did they not all add their memories to Dumbledore's pensieve for the ministry to view so that Sirius' name could be cleared?
