After the Ministry of Magic was taken over by Lord Voldemort in September 1997, Donaghan, as a Muggle-born, presumably faced charges before the Muggle-Born Registration Commission. He may have been sent to Azkaban, or else gone into hiding, like many others of his heritage.

Donaghan was described as "hairy"[7] and, like all members of the Weird Sisters, wore "artfully torn" black robes when onstage.[4]
