me (bibphile) again:

Yes, but we've never seen those people distrust Snape.  The only 
people I can think of that we've seen distrust Snape are Hermione 
(PS only), Ron, Sirius, and Harry.  Harry is the only one of those 
eho knows Snape used to be a Death Eater (I think) and he distrusted 
Snape long before he knew that.  In fact, he almost seems to trust 
Snape more since he found out.
