Until today, my daughter worked for a nuerologist in Mobile, AL. Last Monday, my daughter missed worked to have a medical procedire performed. She obtained a doctor's excuse and returned to work on Tuesday morning. She was the first person in the office and discovered that someone had thrown a brick through the window. She called the police.
Two days ago, the office manager was fired because the doctor said the she was the "primary suspect". The doctor asked my daughter (who is 20 years old) to have me come meet with him. I called him and he said that he needed me to write him a letter that stated that she was a "good girl" and didn't steal or do drugs. Although I thought this was insane, I faxed a letter to him today stating that she was responsible, trustworthy and mature. After he received my letter, he fired my daughter for being a "secondary suspect" because she was friendly with the office manager and because I didn't write that she doesn't do drugs or steal.
Isn't it illegal to fire someone for these reasons? She DID NOT steal from this man. Please give advice as to what we should do. She is so upset!
Thanks!
