The check was made out to a guy named Jody Shcumh. It was drawn on the account that Bradley recently closed out, for the amount of $300.
Bradley says that the forged signature looks a lot like his wife's handwriting. The bank says that Bradley will not be held liable for any charges associated with the forged check, and they notify local law enforcement.
You and Bradley separately get email responses back from Jody. Both are inflamatory and offensive. Jody once again implies he's SF, that he's senior to Bradley (making him at least a staff sergeant or higher), and that he's going to "take Bradley's rank" . He disparages Bradley's MOS, and brags about his own combat experience.
In the email to you, he goes off about how he's not going to take orders from some support guy, and that if you know what's good for you you'll stop bothering him. He says that since he's not in your chain of command, you have no UCMJ authority over him in the first place, and he doesn't have to do what you say. He further makes accusations that Bradley previously engaged in spousal and child abuse, and that's why Mrs. Bradley is with Jody now. The emails are full of grammar, spelling and word usage errors that make them hard to read, and the "logic" of the emails makes them a little hard to follow. But the "fuck you" tone of the emails is pretty hard to misinterpret. It's clear he believes he is untouchable.
1) What course of action do you take now?
2) What do you do about the allegations of spousal/child abuse?
3) Is Bradley correct about the UCMJ authority?
