Regardless of the arrangement post hoc a crime has still been committed. If a thief steals my car and returns it two days later waxed and detailed doesn't change the scope of the original act.

If this was an unusual, one time reaction to a night out drinking I'd say let it slide. If this is a common behavior by your clans resident bad drunk (most cliques have one that eventually needs an intervention or wake-up call) a lengthy, costly legal battle might do the trick.
