The restitution seems too high. He probably was fired for going on mat leave as other companies have shown to do and wanted payback. The "unspecified misconduct" firing reason seems weird and they won't expand on it.

"Probably".

Internet Experts(tm) are also telepaths.

We have no idea, and since his retaliation involved vandalism that could potentially harm bystanders, I'm going to go out on a limb and say... I have no idea why he was fired.
