Legal Question in Employment Law in Ohio

altering a timecard

I work as a nurse's aid. My boss heard rumors that my co-worker and I were watching tv in a residents room. Not only does my supervisor have proof, but during that time I answered a call light of another resident (there is document showing when a resident calls and when the call is answered) On the back of my co-worker and I timecard she wrote dedute 45 minutes. My supervisor made no attempt to contact me on the whole situation but she did talk to my co-worker and did not mention anything about deducting time from our timecards. Is that legal for her to alter our timecards?
