Here's another one: if LV still trusts Snape, then why use Barty Jr. 
in GoF? Snape was, after all, already there.

I think it's clear that Snape is no longer a trusted DE, and it's 
likely he's the one who has left never to return, according to LV.

So who or what is he spying on? Lucius and other known DEs? The MoM? 
Gringott's?

With Weasleys infiltrating both the MoM and Gringott's, and LV 
perhaps making it known to his loyal DEs that Snape is a turncoat, I'd 
submit it must be some currently unknowable option.

Given that in OoP he has apparently been absent for some time and is a 
source of considerable interest upon his return to Grimmauld, he must 
be going somewhere far away. Perhaps talking to other possible allies 
like Hagrid did?

Oh, no, did I just bump into another vampire discussion?
