That's defamation, pure and simple. Legally she deserved to be fired.
I'm sorry but thats the way it goes.

That would have to be proved in court, and also proven that it has hurt the reputation of the person involved.
This couldn't be proven if the name of the boss was never posted as Helms states.
So unless this is proven in a Court of Law, she has been fired on no legal basis. And she deserves to be compensated for her loss.
