I think that there are enough clues from JKR's interviews that someone
else was at Godric's Hollow on the night the Potter parents were
murdered. If someone else was there then they know that Voldemort was
turned into Vapormort.
If a DE was there I'm wondering why the Longbottoms were later
attacked? Why would the DEs think that Neville's parents would know
where Voldemort was if someone in their camp already saw him turn into
Vapormort? It makes no sense.
Maybe the Longbottoms were tortured for a different reason. We know a
lot about James friends, but we haven't heard of Lily's friends yet.
It would make sense that Neville's mother and Lily were friends, since
they both belonged to the Order and were pregnant at the same time--
they had things in common.
If a DE was at GH that night they might have seen, or figured out,
what happened to Harry. This person saw Harry turn into a horcrux, but
they don't understand why or how it was possible. This person knows
that it probably had something to do with Lily's sacrifice.
Harry was already 1.5 years old. Did he babble some baby snake talk?
He later sends the DEs to the Longbottoms to get information. Maybe
Mrs. Longbottom knows what Lily did? Notice how the Longbottoms were
never killed? I always wondered why? Was this DE afraid that Mrs.
Longbottom might have protected Neville in the same way Lily did? If
so, this could be why they were never killed.
I also want to know why Lily was not an original target for death that
night. Voldemort was going to kill Harry and James but not Lily. Why?
Did they want her for someone, something?
Or worse, is it possible that someone hated Lily more than even James?
Did they want her to live knowing that they were responsible for her
son and husband's death? I wonder, did she ever call this person a
coward? Did they then set her up to be a coward herself?
It could very well be that Harry's weakness is his eyes because this
person sees only Lily in Harry, not James.
