How does some trans person you know with a drug problem have any connection to this situation? Are you trying to generalise from one trans person to ask others?
Your comment really seems to be an attempt to turn that presumption and balance on its head.
In this case the proposed victim is silent on the matter and there is not only no proof there aren't even any details. My default assumption of skepticism leads me to conclude in the total absence of any other information that the individual was fired for some other reason and the accusations of bias was erroneous.
