That&#x27;s because the person fired has not been charged with a crime. Nor does it seem anyone even suspects him of a crime. Strutt, who this article is about, was the executive director of the lottery. Tipton, the security director, has been <i>convicted</i> of fraud. Tipton stole millions. There seems to be no evidence that Strutt stole anything. (If there was, I assume they would have also charged him.)<p>This is a typical &quot;heads will roll&quot; situation. Strutt was the leader, a serious crime happened during his watch, and he&#x27;s being replaced because of it.
