 well enough to doubt the solid evidence he possessed (though 
 McGonagall should have known Sirius far better as his head of 
 house and didn't seem to doubt the evidence either), or Dumbledore
 just didn't care and was more than content to let a likely innocent
 man rot in Azkaban if it served his ultimate purposes.>> 
 
 Right, but why couldn't Dumbldore just be bias against the Blacks. Sirius was a Black and all the Blacks were either on Voldemorts side or neutral. The only reason DD had to trust Sirius was that James and Lily trusted him and the fact that he was a Gryffindor.

We know that Sirius was a trouble maker  and pulled pranks that could almost be considered evil. What he did to Snape could have resulted in Snape being killed. 
Dumbldore for whatever reason seems to trust Snape even more then he ever trusted Sirius. 

Why should he have not assumed that Sirius had killed Pettigrew and betrayed Sirius and Lily it fit with what Dumbledore knew of Sirus char at the time.
