Legal Question
i was told that someone videotaped me coming out of female soldiers residence. We are both supposedly on the tape as well, but not sure if we were caught in a sexual act. they have used this vidoe tape to conduct a 15-6 and now are trying to hold a reduction board. is the video tape legal in military court?

Legal Answer
It may or may not be admissible in "military court" where the Rules of Evidence apply. Understand, however, that in administrative actions (like a reduction board) the admissibility of evidence is virtually open-ended. So the answer is, yes, they are likely within their discretion to consider the videotape(s) against you at a recution board.
