Det Ch Insp Mark Swift, Det Insp George Bardell and PC Oliver Scoones are alleged to have failed to conduct a thorough investigation into the death of Riley Siswick.
The three-year-old was found dead at his Huddersfield home in February 2016.
Kyle Campbell, then Riley's mother's partner, is serving life for murder.
Kayleigh Siswick was jailed for causing or allowing the death of her son, who suffered a "slow and painful death".
Kyle Campbell and Kayleigh Siswick were convicted over the death of toddler Riley Siswick
Ian Skelt told a panel at the West Yorkshire Police headquarters in Wakefield that officers from the force's Homicide and Major Enquiries Team should have been assigned to the case from an early stage, but were not.
