He only needs one reason were she to be arrested: She's working with Qrow and by proxy, Ozpin.... They say Blake is in on the Ozluminati, Ironwood gives her a get out of jail free card. So you think a world leader whose main thing is being a straight n' narrow boy scout to the point of ineptitude would skirt the law on behalf of a group run by a dead man and which only has his least favorite operatives word even still works.... riiiiiight.

Seriously, for all intents and purposes, Ironwood has initiated Martial Law. If the Council decides who does what... What Ironwood says is effectively the law there. What Jimmy can and can't do is not the issue... it is what he should do that is. Blake's past has nothing to do with the Ozluminati, thus she'll burn for it on her own merits, he might be there for expediting punishment or incarceration so she can get things done, but he's not about to let her keep her secrets, he didn't let Oz play the long game, he took action without thinking, but in this case action IS incarceration.
