Here's Peter Todd's writeup of his part in the setup ceremony: https://petertodd.org/2016/cypherpunk-desert-bus-zcash-trust... . For what it's worth, he was completely physically separate from anyone else in the ceremony, and no such shenanigans are described in his part of it. As long as any one of the 9 did their part correctly, then it's good. His writeup is not without criticism of the Zcash system though.
