Being exposed after a failed recruiting is not necessarily Town. You weren't playing in Zelda on TWC but many of us were, and this game is one of the two inspirations for this one by Autolycus (with Lylat Wars). In Zelda, any failed attempt (Mafia, Cult or Town) would result in the recruiter being exposed to his target. However the anti-Town teams had scanning abilities to look for possible recruits.

It's a risk/reward thing: Do you recruit in the dark, or do you scan before attempting it? Makes more sense to scan first unless you're desperate.

However Yaro is very likely legit here because of the role he claimed, confirmed by dcmort: He's Doyle, from Angel Investigations, who would likely be part of the LA team. Could this be a cover role? If the rules are the same than Zelda: No. Real roles were always revealed upon a failed recruitment.
