I know the town he was convicted in, it’s not quite a bedroom community for Houston. A bit too far out. They have a problem with the police allowing firearms used in the city limits.
I wouldn’t. But there are so many employers, some actually doing evil things, and in some countries sabotaging things while your department is mass fired is all the rage.

Not a programmer but he was absolutely terrible at hiding his tracks.
Not using any time delay in its triggering so as soon as he was laid off his gifts went off.
Using a system only he has access too.
Using the work computer to search for it and obviously develop it on a dual boot.
I mean seriously… He made no attempt to avoid being caught.

He was convicted by jury there
Or, you know, don’t do it in the first place.
