Legal...

What starts like a bible study group somewhere in 1876 ends up like a multi biliion $ corporation.

 

Notice it says offence and not sin etc, and the area that this falls under is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vicarious_liability where as far as common law is concerned the Watchtower and BT Society would be considered by any reasonable court and certainly by any section 73 court liable for the actions of anyone of these "special" people.

It is because Bethel considers those in the Religious Order of Special Full Time Servants of Jehovah's Witnesses as being a family and that the discipline would be conducted within the family. Now construction volunteers fall within that order now.

You're right. But not just them; everyone else who is part of the association is considered a family. This letter was addressed to just the Australian Witnesses. It makes a lot of sense to notify the ones who manage the record of those people. I think they have reasons for such action besides just being a family.
