Unnecessary Inferences: Altar of Witness

In Joshua 22:20, the people tied the Altar of Witness to the incident with Achan, saying, "...Did not Achan...break faith in the matter of the devoted things, and wrath fell upon all the congregation of Israel?"

Is it really true that God holds everyone in the congregation responsible if even one member succeeds in hiding a sin from them?

Or is the issue rather that Israel's leaders failed to consult God first?
