No way, why would she kill off Hagrid? Its kinda pointless. Nothing would really be gained by his death. It wouldn't really fit in to the novels that well I think, unless he became a more important character all of the sudden or something. While I think so, there was a press release where someone asked: "Who, of all of the charecters would you like to have over for dinner?" She immediately answered "Harry, Ron, and Hermoine" "Anyone else?" "Well, i'm the only one who knows who lives through the series" Then she realized what she had said and immediately added "Dumbledore and Hagrid" mystery discovered. but who's charaacter number 2? :-k
