Coordinated False Accounts

A subject coordinates with other individuals to supply a shared, knowingly false account of relevant events. The subject may agree a cover story, distribute scripted explanations, coach another individual’s responses, or revise accounts so that materially false statements appear consistent across separate interviews or submissions.

The coordinated account is intended to conceal relevant conduct or create the appearance of independent corroboration. Similar wording or consistent recollections alone are insufficient: classification requires evidence that the participants knowingly coordinated a false version of events.
