Even then, I'm not sure I'd terminate him. I also would not have terminated him for being a threat to PB customers. I'd have tried some sort of negligent non-discolsure if there's such a thing. My second reaction was that PB does not do criminal screens on their employees? Would a criminal screen not disclose an innocent verdict? (I'm pretty sure it does). All in all, $500K seems to be a pretty small award, the problem is that now he's back to work. They probably would have paid much more than that to get rid of him once and for all.
