I hope I'm wrong about this, but my guess is we may never know the full story. They probably learned their lesson, particularly with Ray Franz.

Tony will sign or likely has signed a non-disclosure agreement and been compensated for his silence. Even if he's somehow tied up in the PA mess he's likely going to go down for his part, on his own and be a good company man. I believe the Watchtower has become more and more like a corporation over time and Tony doesn't fit in. Whatever the reason he was let go, which to me has to be pretty embarrassing because they'd much rather just cover things up and be quiet about whatever he did or was involved in. For whatever reason that wasn't an option.

But as a corporation they're going to have leverage over him and make sure he's silent. I have no inside knowledge and I hope I'm wrong. It'd be awesome if he spouts off and tells all. He knows where the bodies are buried and could be a HUGE problem for the bOrg. Probably a bigger problem than Franz even.

But these guys have learned and they're going to avoid a scandal at all costs. Let let the rank and file believe that he had health problems or that it was some other issue while remaining silent...
