For security reasons I think that it might have been justified, considering the events that had just taken place. Still a crappy way to go out though.

What security reasons? Firing the author didn't change what had already happened.

People were bat shit crazy in the middle of that Cold War. If someone randomly decided to turn off machines without notice, even if they said "whoops accident, my bad", their actions would have instantly thought of as sabotage.
I'm not agreeing with the outcome.
