If it's substance abuse, then aren't they being a bit harsh? Helping with the problem would be a normal/kind thing to do or at least mentioning they offered or put him on LOA.

All very strange.
Don't know about in Texas, but in Canada terminating an employee in a way which needlessly humiliates them can lead to an award of damages. Public statements may also increase risk of a defamation claim (whether there is any merit to it or not). That said, I'm sure some anonymous source will eventually leak some details.
