This response is provided based on the information you shared and should not be used as the sole source for making a decision. You should seek guidance from the chain of command, IG, JAG or other certified agencies before making any decisions. How you chose to use this information is totally up to you and is your sole responsibility.
Unfortunately there is nothing that prevents this. In some cases units receive critical information that must be past on immediately, in other cases it is inexperienced leaders sharing information as soon as they get it and not thinking about the Soldier.
