Vic Police launch mental health review

Victoria Police will review the mental health of its employees after a constable killed herself at a police station.

The senior constable took her own life at a Melbourne police station on October 13, sparking concerns about the trauma police officers face every day and their ability to deal with it.

Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton said the review would look at how cops can be supported during and after their careers.
