Pippin:

Understand, I'm not a Harry-basher. But I don't think he's using his
best judgement. He's acting like every sixteen year old who thought he
knew more than his old man. 

Harry knows from first year that you can get a completely wrong idea
of a conversation by listening to just part of it, that Snape and
Dumbledore could not communicate openly in front of four Death 
Eaters, that Snape and Dumbledore are both experts at legilimency, 
that Dumbledore's actions have never made sense to him until they 
were explained, and that Dumbledore was withholding the 
explanations. 

He wiped blood away from the body, after being told that an avada
kedavra curse should leave no sign.

He hasn't stopped to wonder about any of these things. He's just
taken it for granted that Snape murdered Dumbledore, based 
mostly on the way Snape has treated him, which is no more 
sensible than judging Sirius by the way he treated Kreacher.
