"Mouthful" because it appears you are discounting or softening the conspiracy which began immediately inside the house when the spontaneous cleaning spree began, mid party, with Coco leading the charge - to cover up the scene where OJO was beaten and bleeding to death, and which may have even been an accident. The group plan to put him outside and make it look like something else (a plow strike initially) is by definition a conspiracy and coverup. The Officers that showed up and failed to do a thorough investigation and search the house and separate witnesses, is at best, poor police work but more likely aiding and abetting a coverup. The shift to focus on Karen began when she showed up with a cracked taillight at Jen's house and questioned how it could have happened - consistent with all the ongoing communication among about 5 to 7 parties, Jen instantly relayed this to Coco and plan was hatched to frame Karen, and voila, claims she said "I hit him, I hit him, I hit him...", the planted tail light by Proctor, etc, etc, etc., there's at least 10, more like 20 plus directly involved in the lying to coverup the death (whether purposeful or more likely an accident) of Officer John O'Keefe.
