It’s definitely possible, barry has history with giving scum teams a safe cop fake claim lol. I also have a reason to doubt personally too, though that’s definitely not an exact science either.
lethals whole play to me just feels like he was excited about being able to claim cop, rather than being excited to actually be the cop
His flip flopping over whether Jeff should have shot him was something that irked me as well. On one hand, he could have got himself cleared and probably would have been able to force through the lynch on me that he was so adamant about getting. Obviously it’d have been wrong, but he was baying for my blood with a couple of the things he was saying to me.
We’d have then had a confirmed cop, and had he stuck to his guns like I did, he’d have been able to freely investigate people without mafia knowing what he was up to and we’d be able to take whatever information he had as fact.
But instead, he heavily dissuaded Jeff from shooting at him. Jeff and everyone else seemingly understood the risk that Jeff was taking on. He knew if he hit town he was going to die. Everyone else knew that as well. That’s why I was fine with him shooting at me. He’d made his bed and he understood that he might have had to lie in it. Lethal told Jeff not to shoot him. He wanted me gone, and if he thought I was mafia he could have even forced through my lynch or if it did fail like Tweet’s, he’d be able to check me tonight.
His claim and then reluctance to be cleared makes it seem to me that he’s hiding something and he was fearful of being shot at. He was happy for Jeff to take the risk shooting at me, but not at himself when he knew he’d be clear afterwards. Unless
I’m missing something, it doesn’t make sense to me if he’s town and being genuine.
