worngful termination

Unfortunately for you, unless you were under contract, California is an "at will" state. What that means is that you can quit,or your company can fire you, for no reason. In your case, you told them that you were a law breaker and they dicided that they didn't want "your type" around. For you to be able to sue your company for wrongful termination, you would have to prove that they fired you for "bad cause" such as discrimination or the like. But what you are describing does not appear to fit that category.

And in this economy, you won't be alone on the unemployment line.

On the other hand, if you have any friends at the company, a little grovelling may be in order. A little kissing up to the old boss may be just the trick to getting your job back. But if not, you better get busy updating your resume. Good luck to you.
