Jason:
What about those of us who think V got the news from wormtail while 
Snape was in the room? Maybe Im the only one? Upon making his exit, 
Snape immediately gets word to DD that Voldemort has the potters 
info.  
   You might say that Snape would then know that Peter betrayed the 
Potters. Maybe. But would Snape bother to correct them when Sirius 
was caught "red handed?" I don't think so. 
   But maybe Snape didn't know Peter was the secret Keeper. Perhaps 
he arrived shortly thereafter and then learned Voldy somehow knew.

Your query as to why the Potters home was in rubble? Well, because 
James fought Voldemort. Spells seem to cause lots of damage when 
they hit something. They destroy headstones in graveyards, reduce 
tables to rubble, set desks ablaze, blow chunks off statues. Seems a 
fight to the death between two powerful wizards would cause plenty 
of damage to reduce the Godrics Hollow home to what could be 
referred to as "rubble."
