If he was the one, then yes fair justice.
But I don't see anything in the OP proving it was him..
Agreed, they were using mindless mob mentality.

Fair.
I know a few sailors and the generally accepted way of dealing with theft is to slam one of the vertical closing hatches on their hands. These hatches take two people to open and close, being so heavy. Their hands literally pop/explode.

Fair, as said, he had no explanation and tried to hide the fact. If he wasn't touching lockers because he was trying to break in, he'd simply have leant on a locker or something and asked someone what the **** was going on with the paint on it.
The guilty hide things, the innocent get help, as said though proof someone touched the outside of a locker isn't proof they stole everything. Proof he stole from ONE locker wouldn't be proof he stole all the stuff.
LIkewise, an innocent person would have explained himself to anyone that asked, wouldn't have gotten so upset and would have likely filed LOTS of complaints, this is the EXACT type of thing people sue and get millions for, for essentially wrongful termination and bullying in a government service job. THe fact he didn't again to me means he was hiding something. LIke if there was a proper long term investigation into the treatment, and a lawsuit, it probably opens him up to being investigated, for things like odd payments into his account, tracking down his bank accounts, finding payments from paypal, on an account that was selling stolen stuff on ebay, that kind of thing.
If I was in that situation, wrongfully having my career ruined, WITH NOTHING TO HIDE, I'd have sued them all, if I was in the wrong, and didn't want any legal charges, I would have dissappeared quietly.

Why is it ?It's not ideal but better than him getting a beating.
Anyone else think the storey smells fishy?
Mysterious non-removeable black paint (all paint dries)? Why the guy didn't scrub his hands hard instead of walking around in gloves?
Depends if he was guilty or not...
Could very well have accidently touched one of the lockers, realised/knew why people had put black paint on the lockers and realised he was in the **** (hence the nervousness). Thus the guys have hounded out an innocent person.
Problem is unless the thief is an idiot (if the original person is innocent) you will never know as he wouldn't steal again...
Thats naive at best - a mob aren't interested in whether you have anything to hide or not... they are convinced your guilty by their measure... no amount of holding your hand up and saying "honestly it happened by accident" is going to convince them... a more timid, completely innoncent, person isn't even going to want to confront that kinda situation once they realise whats going on and will try to hide it.
"The guilty hide things, the innocent get help" has absolutely no merit in reality as a benchmark of anything - its a pipedream of an idealistic world.
I haven't read all of the replaies - I'm sure there is the usual mix of good and bad.
However the way I see it is there wasn't proof that this guy was a thief.
All it would have taken was for him to simply touch a locker and he would have paint on him.
No way indicative of potential theft.
Secondly, if I'd been the guy I would have sued for constructive dismissal (I believe it would come under that).
Those in charge did not prevent or even attempt to prevent the bullying that was taking place.
That alone is a nice payout via the courts.
