(Sefer Chafetz Chaim, Klal 4. Seif 7)

“If someone is not careful (to refrain from) one Aveira that EVERYONE in his Nation knows is an aveira and he committed this aveira deliberately many times, then it is clear that he is not committing this aveira due to being overcome by temptation but rather because he has no fear of Hashem. Therefore it is permitted to embarrass him and speak loshon hora about him whether in his presence or not. However, one MUST BE CAREFUL not to forget the other details that must be fulfilled which I have written about in “B’eer Mayim Chayim”.
