There are many things Ferrari could "do" to an employee to punish him without having to revert to the lengths implied here by several posters. I am sure the employment contracts have extensive sections enumerating rights and remedies. Implying that Ferrari (or any team) would launch some sort of "witch-hunt" to smear an employee could potentially be considered libel.
From what I know of the situation (which ain't much), it would appear that if the police in two different countries have not only been contacted but also persuaded to search the home of an individual, then there may be some "meat" to the allegations. Say what you want of the Italian police, but the standard for searches is fairly high in the UK and there must be some substance to the probable cause required to justify a search.
Bottom line here is that it is a shame we are even discussing this.
