We all know the police can be inept from time to time. Look at how they handled the Tia Sharpe murder; searched the house 4 times and didnt find her body.
But are they 'institutionally racist' and 'corrupt' if they dont get it right?
I'm sure they are alot of unsolved murder cases due to police malpractise that havent been afforded the luxury of a public enquiry or parlimentary report.

Look, first of all, if we lived in a perfect world the Police would never get it wrong - even if such and idyllic scenario did exist I'm sure we'd still have scumbags in our midst.
Let me tell you that, with a missing person's enquiry, which the Tia Sharp murder began as, the Police are actually very restricted in what they are allowed to do. And the vast majority of 'mispers', as they are commonly known within Police circles, turn up safe and well.
Initial action would require details of the 'misper' to be obtained and circulated to other Forces, relevant people to be spoken to, i.e. family, a cursory search - if a child is the 'misper' - of his/her bedroom. It certainly does not require full blown searches with sniffer dogs etc etc.
In a genuine 'misper' case, family feelings are paramount, along with the (hopeful) safe return of the individual.
So many people are prone to talking with hindsight in the Tia Sharp tragedy and unfortunately have no idea how these enquiries actually take shape. Little is so far known of the specific details, therefore I'd be rather cautious about just spouting off willy nilly.

One thing we were told about the property concerned is that it and the rest of the houses in the terrace have partially-linked loft-spaces. In other words, the body could have been moved next door or even further from the scene of the police searches without leaving 'the premises', as it were, before being brought back later. Accordingly, I think we certainly need to find out whether that did indeed happen before blaming police ineptness.
I haven't been following the case closely, but do we know why a neighbour was questioned? I have no idea whether he was subsequently arrested or charged.
