Unhappy Radio won't turn on

Hello. I just bought my first Lexus (2007 GS350) about a month ago. The battery went dead a week ago, maybe due to a door being opened while at the shop where I work. One of the workers tried jumping the car, but did it backwards. This caused a fuse near the battery to blow and another fuse on the left side of the engine compartment. I replaced those, but the radio still wouldn't turn on. A higher skilled mechanic checked all the other fuses but couldn't find another blown fuse. Does anyone know what the issue is?
Thanks, Ramin

Congrats on the new GS and welcome to CL!

I've never understood how this mistake gets made – it's not like the positive and negative terminals aren't clearly marked

There are fuse boxes under the dash on both the driver and passenger side, as well as one in the trunk – did you or the other mechanic check those as well?
