Former police officer used three aliases for 'offensive' trolling, IBAC finds

The former head of Victoria Police's ethical standards department used three aliases to publish dozens of homophobic, racist and offensive posts on social media, Victoria's anti-corruption watchdog has revealed.Brett Guerin used the names Vernon Demerest, Clive Howlett-Jones and Grange Callendar to post the offensive comments, IBAC said

At the time, Mr Guerin was assistant commissioner of the Professional Standards Command , a unit of Victoria Police responsible for handling complaints about police conduct and overseeing ethical standards. Mr Guerin told IBAC at the time of its investigation his comments were often made out of frustration or to "correct the record"."They were alleging that [Professional Standards Command] and Victoria Police generally cover up corrupt cops. I know that's not true."

"His conduct demonstrated poor judgment and an inability to reconcile that his social media use, whether attributed to his real name or a pseudonym, risked bringing Victoria Police into disrepute," Mr Redlich said.

VictoriaPolice is rotten to the core.
