Jailkeeping a claimed Cop

Theory question: I played a game off site in which I was the jailkeeper. Should a cop had claimed and I was the only protective role alive, what would be pros/cons of jailkeeping that doctor, even if it were only for one NP? On one hand, the doctor would be roleblocked and would be unable to investigate a suspected player. On the other hand, it would prevent the scum team from killing the obvious kill choice and keep one more town player alive.

This is after the cop has claimed.

It was similar to sharing is caring.

There was only a jailkeeper and no actual doctor; thus the only role to protect the claimed cop was the jailkeeper.
