They do this because they want the membership locked in the Age of Pisces. Therein, one can remain obedient to those in charge without thinking. One can bury one's head in the sand, not question anything, and learn what the organization wishes one to do. Those at the top seem to understand that mankind has been steadily advancing toward the Age of Aquarius. Slowly at first--starting about the mid 1960s when people began questioning things. Then 1980 when Raymond Franz opened his big mouth about what really goes on in the organization's upper levels.
But, as the Age of Aquarius started getting in close range in the mid 1990s, web sites show up that expose the lies spread by the witlesses. Typical of angelic activity, they commit the offense and blame those who blow the whistle for those same offenses. And, with the spread of the Internet, it is easier to research things these days. Forums and blogs show up, allowing independent videos to be linked together. You get YouTube, which helps people to see what goes on. Just take pictures and video on your smart phone while at the boasting session (works great when running into attendants at a$$emblies) and upload such videos to YouTube. Or, take video of a judicial committee hearing and upload it to YouTube.
Now that we are actually on the Aquarian side (yes, this is up to debate because of Jehovah's obscuring the truth), people are starting to learn the truth. That we are barely in Aquarius means that authority figures are still holding onto Pisces for dear life. It also means they can order their members to stay in Pisces, creating fear, shame, and guilt about cross-referencing. The death threat and threat of ruining lives is used--the death threat is losing its power, but they can still ruin lives. Also, they are not getting anything in field circus because anyone who is interested is going to take the littera-trash, turn on their browser window, and do some Aquarian type research on the topic and realize it's a scam.
