Raeangelavhs:
My reply is short because a lot of points have all been mentioned 
and there is no reason to repeat them.

I believe Snape is still good and I would like to add a piece of 
evidence not yet mentioned.

In GoF p. 679 (US) when DD, McGon, and Snape burst into the room and 
stun Moody/Crouch Jr DD walks over to C's stunned body and "Snape 
followed him, looking into the Foe-Glass, where his own face was 
still visible, glaring into the room."

Later on p. 683 DD is about to question Crouch Jr and in the Foe-
Glass "...th reflections of Dumbledore, Snape, and McGonagall were 
still glaring down upon them all."

While in the first excert Snape may not have known who this "Moody" 
actually was, DD had removed them from the scene of the maze 
because "'The moment he took you, I knew'".  And by the second 
passage Crouch had been revealed (p. 682) so Snape knew that it was 
a Death Eater that the three of them had captured.  The fact that 
Snape knew that before him was one of Voldemort's most faithful 
servants (the one who succeded in resurrecting him and Snape knew 
that in the past Crouch Jr had sought out LV and served a sentence 
for it) and yet in the Foe-Glass it is shown that he is still C's 
enemy, standing with DD and McGon.  I'm pretty sure a Foe-Glass 
can't be fooled.  It's a sure way to tell where Snape's loyalties 
lie.
