Policeman facing anti-corrupti
A SENIOR detective at the centre of a high-level Victoria Police anti-corruption taskforce investigation resigned as a police delegate a few months ago, the Police Association says.
The detective sergeant, who had been a fierce critic of the state's police watchdog, the Office of Police Integrity (OPI), resigned as a delegate due to medical problems, association secretary Paul Mullett said.
The officer is being investigated for alleged ties to a contract killer involved in Melbourne's bloody underworld war, according to media reports.

Glenville police officer charg
GLENVILLE, N.Y. -- There are just 22 officers on the Glenville police force. While the department may be small, its officers pride themselves on serving a community they say deserves their best.
"They want to know that their department is professional and that the person that is responding is competent, and will do a good job, and can be relied upon," said Glenville Police Chief, Michael Ranalli.
That's why he said the actions leading to the arrest of six year veteran; Chris Charnews have given the department a black eye.
"It's not acceptable behavior for a police officer," Ranalli said.
While investigating other circumstances, the department learned that in February, Charnews lit two boxes of road flares.
And last August, he used a potato gun to shoot out a street light in the department's parking lot.
"We cannot accept that type of behavior from police officers, because I don't want more problems here," Ranalli said.
That's why Charnews has been suspended without pay and the department is trying to fire him.
He also faces three counts of criminal mischief. Meanwhile, another officer under investigation, Ed Casey, resigned on Wednesday.
And the Chief hopes the public doesn't view the department badly because of a few bad apples.
"If we're made aware of certain behaviors that are not acceptable to us, and don't meet our standards, then we will investigate it, and we'll take action, and we'll deal with it," said Ranalli.
While that process is underway, leaders of the Glenville Police Benevolent Association aren't commenting.
