1- You're assuming the white female employee doesn't have a criminal history. She could very well have been an axe murderer. We don't know.
2- His history is irrelevant. One part of incarceration is rehabilitation. If we're going to incarcerate people under the concept that people can be reformed (because otherwise, we're just wasting time jailing people), then we have to give them an opportunity to prove themselves once they are released. What he did constitutes going through the garbage, which isn't the same as theft. Something discarded (either by the company or the customer) is in the public domain. If you set out a garbage can, I can legally go through it. Some municipalities have dumpster diving laws, but that's not Wal-Mart's claim as to why they fired him.
1. Yes I am. I only have the info provided to go on. Which is why I questioned.
2. Same as above we need more info .... But wouldn't it all be irrelevant since they can fire him for any reason during that probation period? Once again I'm not sure on walmarts employee policy. On his criminal history, I wasn't sure if that could play into it which is why I asked.
