Corpsetaker's shade said something along the lines that it was unfortunate he rushed into a confrontation, as someone with his innate gifts could have become formidable if he'd been patient.

 Considering that Harry mind training at the time of Dead Bead was merely the rudimentary defenses that the White Council sanctioned, showing how afraid they were of mind magic at the time..

wardenferry419:
But, it has been mentioned that Harry has natural defenses to mind magic possibly due to his stubbornly thick skull.

SacredHollow:
Hi I don't post often but I always thought that mote that evil bob gave to harry was knowledge of necromancy. Kind of like when he got that knowledge gen from his mom in blood rights. Harry just didn't realize it

However he totally failed as far as Harry was concerned.  So the plot thickens, was Justin under orders from higher up to try and control them?  Hints from Harry's flashback in Ghost Story suggests this, but to what purpose and to who's purpose?  Because it is unclear if Justin's attempt was for his boss or for himself..

That's what Harry was told.  However, it's still entirely possible that he new that both of them were potential Startborn and THAT was his real goal.

Having a couple of Starborn under your control could come in handy down the road.
