My wife worked as the manager of a martial arts studio. She was also the senior instructor at this location. She was let go by the owner and since this is a state that allows termination for no cause, no big deal. The problems stems from the fact that after the termination, the owner of the studio called a number of students into the office and told them that my wife had been let go because she was in a lot of legal trouble, that this was my wife's "third strike", that she had be stealing from the studio and also had been calling all of the students to get them to join a martial arts studio she was starting. A personal friend was one of the students who were called into the office and advised of this. Is this not slander and if so what can or should my wife do about this?

I don't mean this to be offensive but, is what the employer said true or not?

Fortunately, it is not. Now the owner did give my wife some items, martial arts equipement wise and she may say that was taken, if so we are willing to return it.
