Missing Woman Nicola Bulley 5

[ofwarren]

A new thread about the disappearance of Nicola Bulley in St Michael's on Wyre, Lancashire.

I have missed most of the previous thread but I see that Peter Faulding's team have concluded their search. Let's hope some dashcam footage might come to light and reveal something hopeful.

I really hope she's found. No idea what has happened but must be terrible for her little girls.

Oh yes I see it now. So does the river flow from the weir towards the bench or the opposite way?

From the bench to the weir

Surely if there is any chance of foul play it should be investigated fully. It’s not a grey area at all, it’s not a pure MP case.

Women do not feel safe - of course the police have to take a missing mother seriously.

Just looking at that photo, I didn’t realise she was so isolated

How is it not being investigated thoroughly or taken seriously?

Genuinely beginning to wonder if this could be a canoe-man situation.

i just really really don’t like to think she’d leave her kids. I’d be so surprised…

Why do you think they are not taking it seriously?

Yes, this has been discussed about 50 times on the last 4 threads.

None of us know what the police are investigating they have already said they are open to all options, they have 40 detectives on the job and they are sifting through lots. The police don't tell the public everything.

It's a 4-5 minute walk west to the main road, and a shorter walk to the lane near the Wyre caravan park. It's actually less isolated than a walk I do within a large town.

It is but its the main dog walking spot for the area.
When I used to live there and we took the dog, you'd see a constant stream of walkers
Fishermen fish along the river there too.
I probably wouldn't go alone but I'm quite risk avoidant.

Because so much could have been missed by not cordoning off the area, by assuming it was a drowning and a lack of a proper criminal investigation. It looks to me like they discounted and dismissed too many alternative possibilities too early on

Why would people that call for buildings to be investigated then trespass in them.

There was a strikingly similar disappearance on 28 December last year. A chap went for a walk (wearing headphones) along a stretch of water and hasn’t been seen since. How awful

See if you had read even a bit of one thread, you'd know that many people have got there before you on that one.

Don't give up the day job Columbo.

Hoping she is found and hoping that the investigation is actually better than it looks from the outside. No way she is in the water. Yes lots of people drown in canals and rivers but usually they have fallen in at night in the dark and after drinking too much. A fit healthy woman does not topple in like a nine pin leaving dog, harness and phone on the bank without a trace. I walk my dog everyday near a stream and whether it is wet or frosty, you can see what's happened in the last 24 hours from the tracks in the ground. If she slipped there would be marks.

What brought it home to me was the reporting of this story alongside the terrible and tragic cases of the murdered headmistress and her young daughter and a young mum and her little baby girl. Sadly violence against women is not unusual. I find it really concerning that this case was not treated as suspicious from the very start. Alarm bells were clearly ringing with all the women on these threads or we would not be following this case so closely. Why were they not ringing for the police.

Unfortunately this case has got so big that every Tom, dick and Harry wants to get involved.

Its gone from being a regional news story (which you being local would have heard about it first), to UK-wide (being in Northern Ireland I first got wind of it on the Monday after Nicola went missing) and the longer it has dragged on the mystery only deepens which has resulted in threads like this now filled with armchair detectives.

Many will have looked at the google map of the area (me included) to get a general idea of the layout involved, but beyond having an interest in the case and desperately hoping for a good outcome it’s out of order to start speculating who was involved. It’s disrespectful to Nicola’s family.

"Why would people that call for buildings to be investigated then trespass in them."

They're thick as fuck, that's why.

I hope this thread isn't just going to be a repeat of people asking why the dog didn't follow, how someone could get a car up there, why the woman tied up the dog (who I don't think we should be naming btw).

Of course that's been considered

stupidity?

They were back again tonight. I came across a live.

Because they are thick and do it for clicks

Who are the “huge number” of police supporters? Can’t people agree with the police without being supporters? Why do people need to leave the thread until all the posters agree with them?
