Thoughts:

I don't care about canon, Dumbledore must've known that Wormtail was the one who told Voldemort about the Potters.

I mean, think about it: in PoA is mentioned that 1) when James told Dumbledore that he would choose Sirius as Secret Keeper, Dumbledore'd already suspected that someone was giving information to the other side. 2) Pettigrew'd been already working for Voldemort for about a year when James and Lily died.

Now please don't tell me that know-it-all freaking Dumbledore didnt have a clue about who was the traitor. I mean lets look on the options (of people who were close to the Potters): Dorcas and the McKinnons died, which means that they couldnt sell the Potters. Then there's Remus, who, please, was forever thankful that he could go to Hogwarts being a werewolf and that he had friends. He wouldnt betray James for shit. Sirius ran away when he was 16 and started living with who? With James. Moreover he was James and Lily best man and Harry's godfather. Who the hell would give away information that would get his godson killed? Plus, he spent all his life making it painfully obvious that he was different from his pure-blood-crazy family. Not a good candidate for a death eater, huh? So its reasonable to conclude that, even though Pettigrew was a marauder, he'd be the most likely one to betray the Potters.

But, yes, I guess you could say that maybe he would be as thankful as Remus for having friends. You could say that Dumbledore didnt want to pinpoint who was the traitor cause he wasnt sure or whatsoever. Okay. But at that time, Snape was already Dumbledore' spy. That's how they knew that Voldemort was after the Potters after all. Dumbledore could just have asked Snape about this shit. And I think we can all agree that Snape knew that Pettigrew was working for Voldemort as Sirius says in PoA that the Deathly Eaters in Azkaban wanted Wormtail dead because they knew he was the one who sent Voldemort to Godric's Hollow. Snape had the dark Mark, which means he was one of the top Death Eaters. If the others knew, he knew it too.

But Dumbledore didnt know James chose Wormtail as the Secret Keeper so okay. But please he must have at least suspected that Sirius wouldnt be the traitor. So why did Dumbledore allow Sirius go to Azkaban without a fucking trial? I think this is the biggest proof we've got that Dumbledore was a shitty person. Even if he thought Sirius was guilty, it was his duty as Chief of the Wizengamot to guarantee a fair trial.

All I can say is that maybe Albus Dumbledore didnt give a shit about Sirius Black - because he wasnt busy mourning the James and Lily's death, its McGonagall who cries in the first chapter of Philosopher's Stone, not him.

What I, not a Dumbledore's fan, suspect is that Sirius would be less trouble in Azkaban. Sirius agreed to hand Harry to Hagrid the night James and Lily died, so that Harry would live with the Dursleys. But he would've wanted to be close to his godson, even if they didnt live together. Can you imagine how Sirius, who himself had grown up in an abusive household, would fucking explode if he knew that Harry's family made him sleep in a cupboard? Dumbledore would tell him "oh Harry's got to live with Petunia because she's the only living relative of Lily, its the only way that the charm of her sacrifice works and shit", but Sirius-the-impulsive wouldnt listen. He would've gone after Harry, protected him with every spell he knew, Sirius would've died if he had to, but he wouldnt allow Harry to love with the Dursleys.

And no, I dont think that Sirius knew in GoF and OotP how bad the Dursleys were. Harry's never wanted to tell him in fear that Sirius would expose himself as a fugitive.

So I believe that Dumbledore probably knew that Sirius was innocent, even if he didnt, he didnt botjer for a trial because Sirius would've never allowed Harry to grow up in an abusive household.
