Corpse isn't laid out for police officers (10)
I believe the answer is:
inspectors
'police officers' is the definition.
(inspector is a kind of police officer)
'corpse isn't laid out' is the wordplay.
'laid out' is an anagram indicator.
'corpse'+'isnt'='corpseisnt'
'corpseisnt' with letters rearranged gives 'INSPECTORS'.
'for' is the link.
(Another definition for inspectors that I've seen is " examiners".)
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
