Despite currently being tried in the court of public opinion and the media, they are still innocent until proven guilty.  Being accused of a crime is not grounds for dismissal unless you are emploeyd in a highly visible and political position.  Being convicted of a felony is often grounds for termination so it really matters how this plays out. But losing their jobs now would be premature .  [/quote]

I think one of them is a fed employee; but in general, most people are at-will employees, so being arrested could certainly be grounds for dismissal.  If you are at-will, your boss can fire you because they don't like the tie you wore to work. [/quote]

If you get convicted of a Felony-grounds for firing in Feds.
Arrest/conviction of certain misdemeanors could certainly affect security clearance.  If it's a serious charge an employee will be put in suspension leading up to trial.

My spouse is a Software consultant/engineer that has worked on contracts with the Feds that required one of the highest levels of security.  Obtaining this was a big deal and lucrative have.  Something like this could certainly negatively affect such a clearance.[/quote]

I'm surprised at the idiots that think this was okay and the sheer number that don't realize this can affect employment.

Good God, people.[/quote]
