The employee was and is a scum bag human, but what dumbass trades a phone with nudes on it‽ I wouldn't even get a phone serviced with nudes.

So what do you do if you literally cant wipe the phone I.e broken screen? Just never have anything there to begin with?

Remote wipes are possible. Log into your Apple/Google account, figure out how to find your device, then perform a remote wipe.
