I really don't know whether or not I like Christie. I am not a fanboy. In my humble opinion he cannot yet be held responsible for the traffic jam unless someone comes up with proof that he was involved. A good leader cannot possibly know everything that goes on with a subordinate. You can carefully screen them and follow up on them but when one does something totally unpredictable, all you can do is react - which Christie did by firing the individual and starting an investigation. Fat Joe Massino thought he had total control of everyone and everything in the Bonnano family. Apparently he didn't as Vinnie Basciano committed several unapproved murders. Subordinates will sometimes do things unpredictable to try to impress the boss thinking they will get brownie points
