Did I do the right thing?

One thing I forgot to mention?

You will have to deal with that person to give them job assignments, etc.?

Try to have a third party present when you do.

You never know when people will 'mis-hear' a conversation?

-----------------------

I once had an idiot supervisor say that I 'ran down the hallway, cursing' outside her office while she was with another employee.

I told her that I wanted to meet with that person and hear their side of the story, because I didn't remember doing it. And, if that person was correct, she was more than welcome to write me up.

She NEVER brought it up again.

I'm with Richard on this one.
Also - You might want to take notes on all of this in case someone from your company returns to you with questions later. If you are alone with this person for any reason, keep yourself between him and the exit. Keep your conversations factual, so that nothing you say is open to misinterpretation in any way. Don't walk to your car alone after work, if you can avoid it. You definitely did the right thing and your company should back you up big-time. This person should have been let go.
