Lisa here...
This gives me an idea. (Although- I have to check the timeline, but I still think there may 
be something to the effect of RAB being with Voldemort at Godric Hollow hence he knew 
of the horcruxes and that's how the locket was seen in 12GP in OOTP) However, if it was 
the killing of Lily that somehow made snape switch sides... what do we know of Snape's 
mother... we are casually introduced to her in HBP, do we know if she is dead? if she was 
murdered? maybe if Snape was at Godric Hollow, perhaps seeing a mother die for her child 
hit a little too close to home as memories of his mother's (maybe) death came flooding 
into his snively brain. (sorry- not a snape fan, although I do believe he is on the good 
side).

Just a thought.
