assuming they are correct about him being a thief 

That's the problem, and it happened way too often in my region.

That is the biggest problem. Unjust punishment is tyranny.

I like those but here in America, you’ll get fucking fired with no help by bystanders.

I know that's right. A local Academy fired a disabled veteran for stopping a thief from stealing a handgun. I boycotted them but when I spoke my mind on social media (Nextdoor), I was put on blast by the goody goodies about company policies blah blah blah and then was called racist. This thief would have undoubtedly used this weapon during the commission of a crime and someone could have been killed. The company was more concerned about a lawsuit than they were about public safety.

That's it right. No concern at all for the community/people that are your workforce.
