Deputy state coroner Jane Bentley criticised Queensland Police’s response to a missing person in a report published last week.
Ms Bentley determined the police were not thorough enough in their search for Monique Clubb 9 years ago and that the investigation was marred by poor intra-police co-operation.
Ms Clubb is remembered as a “second mum” to her five siblings and as a “promising young student and with hopes of a bright future”.
