in the criminal sense a snitch will provide information to the police or feds in order to obtain lenient treatment for themselves and provide information over an extended period of time in return for money or for police to overlook their own criminal activities. Quite often someone will become an informant following their arrest.
a snitch is not the innocent person who has a serial killer living next door so he tells the police to get the trash out the community. a snitch is one who is slanging dope or doing some other wrong doing and gets caught but instead of taking their punishment like a man they tell the authorities info on other criminals so they can get off scott free or reduce their own punishment. that is a snitch!

Snitching is when you tell on someone to get yourself out of trouble.

Informing law enforcement of a crime for any other reason is just someone performing their civic duty.

Snitches are bitches sent by witches who fall in ditches and later get stitches and then never get bitches.

A "Snitch" is a guy/girl who gets arrested by the cops, and then decides to give up info that can land another person/friend in lock-up. And as a result, the snitch is let go- - home free.

Usually, that motherfucker gets his/her ass beat up and put into the hospital, or stabbed up or shot.
A drug dealer gets caught by the cops, and the cops offer him a deal to be let off home free, so the motherfucker takes the deal and tells the cops about another dealer thats throwin dope around town, and then gets that other dealer arrested. A week later, Snitch gets jumped and put in the hospital.
Snitch rats on somebody again & ends up dead.
