He was let go because he totally trashed and badmouthed that player, including the use of racial slurs. The guy didn't AFK (he sat out of one team fight, apparently). Also, the way that bans are supposed to work is warning --> small ban --> medium ban --> large ban. This guy banned outright, without consulting other riot employees, letting his emotions take control.
