I recently saw on the website for my local newspaper, an article about a guy who has recently been convicted of burglary and theft - is there a way to find out if he's been disfellowshipped?
Is it possible to find out if someone has been disfellowshipped?

So he's an active homosexual and got convicted for burglary - I can't see how he would avoid disfellowshipping, unless he had moved away and his former hall didn't hear about it and the local hall doesn't know he was a dub.

The best way to find out if someone is disfellowshipped is to ask them yourself. The congregation he was last associated with might have his publisher's card or if he moved a lot it might have gotten lost in the cracks.
