Legal Question in Military Law in Maryland

Accused in MEO complaint

I am a civilian DoD employee. Recently a military member alleged that I made derogatory comments about her political party. The member filed an MEO complaint against me. The MEO investigator asked me one question: what happened the day after the election. I was interviewed and provided a written statement denying the allegation. I learned the investigator informed my boss of the status of the investigation saying there was inclusion evidence regarding some of the allegations. I informed my boss that I was made aware of only one allegation.

Last week I was issued A Letter of Reprimand. I was found guilty of two of fours charges. I request copies of the information that was used as a basis to take action against me. To date, I have't seen the information. Two people who have seen the report tell me they saw no evidence of wrong doing. They saw inconsistencies in the report.
