I think this comment is a brilliant exposition on how anonymity can be good and bad.
I guess you want leave these things behind and don't make them public, you post an anonymous comment. The worst thing that could have happened is that you are astroturfing for Glassdoor but it's harmless and the sincere tone makes me think that you are not astroturfing.
On the the other hand we also have people who will lie, pretend to be multiple people, cause trouble with no repercussion to their characters.
I have this idea of censorship free web where you have your identity stored but not disclosed. So the content moderators can choose to delete your comments but you can un-delete those if you accept revealing your identity.
So in your situation, you should be able to tell Glassdoor, here is our investigation and we couldn't find anything to indicate that the claims are true therefore please remove this comment. Glassdoor removes the comment and if the poster of the comment is still behind the claims, clicks a button and the comment is restored but this time with the identity exposed.
This way, you can have anonymous comments that can be challenged and the commentators have a mechanism to counter censorship as they have the power to override censorship if they are willing to stake their persona.
