Redemption

Hypothetical question (not actually happening at Rustle):
If there is someone in your Church congregation who was arrested and will be punished according to the law of the land. If the police say that it is ok for the person to return to Church only IF the Church says it is ok, should your Church say it is ok?
If you look at redemption of the individual, you would say yes. But you also have to think about the community as a whole, how it would affect them?
