If I got arrested tomorrow with trafficking amounts of drugs on me and I got fired (which I would), no one would be asking if my employer had done enough to help me with my addiction before firing me.
While I agree with your point about failure to hold Richards accountable for his own behaviour, your argument here is irrelevant. Your employment is (presumably) not controlled by a collectively bargained drug rehabilitation process that explicitly defines what your employer's responsibilities are when you are caught with drugs. Based on the article I posted a couple days ago, if the Kings were to try and argue that being arrested/detained created the material breach, they are going to get killed by an arbitrator.
