    This has nothing to do with the “justice system”. Private companies can make their own decisions.

      That’s how it is in the USA, an employer can fire an employee for any number of reasons that don’t involve a crime.

      An employee does not get any guarantee of employment. Getting convicted of a sex crime will definitely get someone fired, but an employer can fire someone simply for being counterproductive. Though most government jobs do require a number of official complaints first.

      For contract work common in entertainment there are legal obligations. An employer can break a contract at will, but it may end up in court if not settled privately.
