On top of what others have said, in most states companies can legally fire people for any reason or no reason at all, outside of a limited number of protected classes (race, gender, age, religion, stuff like that). They can fire you because they don't like the color of your pants.
Aside from that, the other protected category would be to protect people from retaliation for reporting illegal behavior (whistle blowing), reporting harassment, union organizing, reporting safety concerns, discussing workplace conditions. But that's when the *company* does illegal behavior, not when you/your husband committed a crime.
