I can’t give details as it isn’t my story to tell.

He was not fired for it, as it was an honest mistake, and he stayed with the company for several more years.

Thank you, appreciate your response. I'm glad he wasn't penalized for an honest mistake. I've heard of folks citing policy and firing great employees, good to hear a happy end to the whole situation.
