In Chapter 2 'Spinner's End', Snape makes the following comment 'The 
Dark Lord is satisfied with the information that I have passed him on 
the order. It led, as perhaps you have guessed, to the recent capture 
and murder of Emmeline Vance, and it certainly helped dispose of 
Sirius Black, although I give you full credit for finishing him off.'

My question is this: Is this just a lie that Snape told Bellatrix to 
try and convince her of what side he was on? Or did he really pass 
Voldemort information that led to these murders? <snip>
