No, getting involved isn't wise. Sid got himself into this, and he'll have to serve the sentence for his crime. No sense in getting yourself jailed with him.
Back in your one-room apartment, you turn on the broadcast projector. The late news is reporting how an "enemy of state" who refused to pay his taxes has been sentenced to thirty years in prison. A light sentence, but Sid won't live that long. Poor guy.
You finish eating some leftover rations, and go to bed early. The fields will be waiting for you tomorrow.
