FROM ResourceAssociation ra
JOIN vRM_SiteService_Item ss on ss.Guid = ra.ParentResourceGuid
JOIN ResourceType rt on rt.Guid = ss.ResourceTypeGuid
JOIN vRM_Computer_Item c on c.Guid = ra.ChildResourceGuid
JOIN
      (
            SELECT ra.ChildResourceGuid
            FROM ResourceAssociation ra
            WHERE ra.ResourceAssociationTypeGuid = '5F00E96B-93F3-41F0-94A7-7DBBB8AEF841'
            GROUP BY ra.ChildResourceGuid
            HAVING COUNT (ra.ChildResourceGuid) > 1
      )a ON a.ChildResourceGuid = ra.ChildResourceGuid
WHERE ra.ResourceAssociationTypeGuid = '5F00E96B-93F3-41F0-94A7-7DBBB8AEF841'
GROUP BY c.Name, rt.Name
HAVING COUNT (ra.ChildResourceGuid) > 1
ORDER BY 1,2

If the issue is present the script below can be run to resolve it. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: As a best practice please ensure that there is a backup of the database before running any script that will modify data in the database.

DELETE ra
FROM ResourceAssociation ra
JOIN
 (
     SELECT ra.ChildResourceGuid, MIN (ra.CreatedDate) 'Oldest Created Date'
     FROM ResourceAssociation ra
     join vRM_SiteService_Item ss on ss.Guid = ra.ParentResourceGuid
     WHERE ra.ResourceAssociationTypeGuid = '5F00E96B-93F3-41F0-94A7-7DBBB8AEF841'
     GROUP BY ra.ChildResourceGuid, ss.ResourceTypeGuid
     HAVING COUNT (ra.ChildResourceGuid) > 1
 ) a ON a.ChildResourceGuid = ra.ChildResourceGuid
  AND a.[Oldest Created Date] = ra.CreatedDate
WHERE ra.ResourceAssociationTypeGuid = '5F00E96B-93F3-41F0-94A7-7DBBB8AEF841'
