A new development in the investigation into the disappearance

:00:00.:00:25.

of Corrie McKeague, and then -- the waste was heavier than originally

:00:26.:00:29.

thought. Squalor among care leavers. And a

:00:30.:00:34.

mixed bag of weather. Suffolk Police have tonight issued

:00:35.:00:46.

more details about the search for missing airman

:00:47.:00:49.

Corrie McKeague. They've revealed that the weight

:00:50.:00:50.

of the waste disposal lorry which travelled from Bury St Edmunds

:00:51.:00:52.

to a rubbish tip near Cambridge was far heavier than

:00:53.:00:55.

initially thought. Police began a search

:00:56.:00:56.

of the landfill site This is the landfill site at Milton

:00:57.:00:59.

near Cambridge where the police are now searching for the body

:01:00.:01:06.

of Corrie McKeague. He went missing from this area

:01:07.:01:09.

of the recent Edmunds. It is called the horseshoe,

:01:10.:01:23.

and it is full of waste bins. A rubbish lorry which made

:01:24.:01:27.

a collection from the horseshoe on the night Corrie went missing

:01:28.:01:29.

was involved in the early stages At the time, it was thought

:01:30.:01:32.

the lorry weighed just 11 kilos. This evening, police have revealed

:01:33.:01:36.

that the weight of the waste collection on that night

:01:37.:01:40.

was actually over 100 kilos. I don't understand how the process

:01:41.:01:43.

has allowed him to get to landfill. That was one thing I think

:01:44.:01:46.

was trying to keep me believing that Was that I was so sure,

:01:47.:01:49.

because of what the police have said to us, that he couldn't go

:01:50.:01:57.

through that process and it doesn't The police say the error was made

:01:58.:02:00.

by the company who provide the data. In a statement, Suffolk

:02:01.:02:13.

Police go on to say... Once I have found Corrie,

:02:14.:02:26.

then the questions will come as to how this happened,

:02:27.:02:29.

how he has ended up there. Finding Corrie is the only thing

:02:30.:02:32.

that we need to be thinking about. The mix-up relates to the arrest

:02:33.:02:45.

last week of a 26-year-old man on suspicion of attempting

:02:46.:02:48.

to pervert the course of justice. A second man was also

:02:49.:02:50.

interviewed under caution. Both men have been told

:02:51.:02:54.

they will face no further action. Next, Norfolk County Council has

:02:55.:02:57.

promised urgent action after a Look East investigation

:02:58.:03:04.

found evidence that some vulnerable teenagers were living

:03:05.:03:08.

in chaos and squalor. The 16 to 18-year-olds

:03:09.:03:14.

have recently left care. Norfolk County Council pays

:03:15.:03:18.

a company called SixteenPlus to provide accommodation

:03:19.:03:20.

for the teenagers. The deal includes advice

:03:21.:03:26.

and supervision with the aim of helping the teenagers

:03:27.:03:29.

lead independent lives. But we've uncovered allegations

:03:30.:03:31.

crockery on the floor. And there is quite a lot of cat

trodden into the carpet. What's worrying upstairs is not just

:04:06.:04:07.

the level of mess, but also Some of them are
