And this statment. "This is a Midnight answer session. Rosa, Maria, Genji, George, Jessica, and Krauss are dead."

Actually, not quite. What this red does is necessarily imply that at the moment of discovery when the commotion started and people were declared dead, nobody was actually dead including Rosa -- otherwise it would be logically impossible for their corpses to vanish. At the moment the midnight answer session starts, it's already 24:00 of the 5th and
everyone is dead in the endgame explosion anyway.
However, this scenario is possible and makes sense:
There was no letter with the ring and no knock. Kanon and Shannon (or Shkanon if you prefer) entered the dining hall when Krauss and Natsuhi excused themselves and brought with them the head ring as proof of the Kinzo Phantom Conspiracy they ratted out there and then. To protect them from possible repercussions by their direct employers, those present agreed to say that a mysterious envelope appeared exactly at midnight, while Shannon and Kanon were already with them.
But they did not stop with just that. In the spirit of "turnabout is fair play", they quickly concocted a plan with the goal of coaxing Natsuhi into revealing the truth herself, and sent Rosa off early to proceed with the preparations. Her job was to convince the cousins to play dead and possibly arrange an appropriate medical verdict with Nanjo. Once the coast was clear, to prevent further examination of the 'corpses', Rosa roused them and ushered them somewhere else.
That 'somewhere else' is where they eventually died, though I doubt we can say for certain Rosa is the one who killed them.
