Andrew Beckett was a former lawyer at a Philly law firm who was suspiciously fired shortly after being promoted by the CEOs of the firm. It is suspected and clear that he was fired for not telling his bosses that he had a deadly disease AIDS. This is typically contracted through sex and is typically found in gay men, something Andrew Beckett also did not disclose to his bosses. The deal here, though, is the fact that HE DID NOT need to disclose this. The fact the law firm fired him because of solely this is a violation of the 14th Amendment. It clearly denies the equal protection of the law discussed in the amendment. Then, Beckett went to court, although he won, his inevitable death was shortly after.
