Right on, Ellen!  

I have always worked under the theory that my first responsibility/loyalty is to myself (obviously), and my second responsibility/loyalty is to the one who signs the paycheck (not the person, necessarily, just the organization).  You are being paid to do a job and do it well.  The tech person does not pay you - so your very last loyalty is to her.  And if she IS fired, you DID NOT CAUSE IT - her behavior is what caused her firing.  That is very important for you to remember.  We all have to take responsibility and accept the consequences for our own actions.  Your consequence may be the loss of a good working relationship with a co-worker.  Weigh that against the potential consequences of not having spoken up at all, and I think you will find that you did the right thing.
