I would agree that Snape went to LV to tell him that DD was dead.  
There is no compelling reason to believe that Draco went to LV and 
may well not have since he didnt kill DD.

DD trusted Snape and the big question is why. Love is the magic that 
Voldemort does not understand.  I believe that Snape loved Lilly 
Potter and thats why DD trusts Snape, because Snape hates LV for 
killing her.  Snape may well have been at Godric's Hollow and helped 
persuade LV to give Lilly a chance to live, which by her refusal, 
set the magic in place to protect Harry and nearly destroy a 
supposedly immortal being who had 6 horcruxes protecting him.

Harry's existence also reminds Snape that Lilly loved James and not 
Snape which explains the animosity towards Harry.

Snape didn't want to kill Harry.  He could have easily during his 
escape from Hogwarts. Thats also why Snape didn't take Harry with 
him, because he is protecting Harry.  But his real goal is to kill 
Voldemort, at least in my opinion.

Snape is not Voldemort but he is not totally good either.
