This is the thing that I personally would ask JKR if given the opportunity:

If Hagrid had his wand snapped when he was expelled, why was Bellatrix's wand not snapped when she was sent to Azkaban? I can accept that other escapees might not have their own wands, Sirius might be using a family wand given that he can't just pop into Ollivander's and buy a new one. BUT in DH it is specifically mentioned that Hermione hates using Bellatrix's wand thinking about what the wand has done; killed Sirius and tortured Neville's parents. The torture was why she was sent to Azkaban, so we know it's her original wand.

So, any thoughts and theories on how she got it back? Has this question been asked of JKR?
