Questioning the maid is fine.  Finding out that she was uninvolved and then
canning her anyway wouldn't be.  Also, we're not talking about a maid here,
we're talking about a career guy who was swept out of the company by what was
(apparently) found to be a baseless rumor.
The affected (whether by Uncle Sam or Len Rose is for the reader to decide)
have been pretty mild so far...  Throw somebody's job and/or personal property
in the toilet, and no payback?  Wait'll some "downtown" kinda guy gets treated
this way.  He or she could be guilty as sin, and still they'd throw every piece
of cutlery and furniture in the house at their accusers, and then go for the
vital organs.  Speaking metaphorically, of course.
Who will be the first?
