Police ethical-standards boss in Victoria forced to resign

The head of Victoria Police's ethical-standards body has resigned after being linked to a series of racist and obscene posts online. Assistant Commissioner Brett Guerin was removed from his position last week after it was revealed he made crude comments about his former colleagues, using an alias.
