Couldn't see a thread on this....

still ultimately abducted and murdered.

There is an extensive investigation. There is no evidence of this & it is utterly inappropriate to speculate in this way.

I suspect they have had no option but to release this stuff given all the Trouble in the village with counsellers being threatened, houses broken into, selfies being taken at the bench and having to have security!! Perhaps had people let the police get on with their job instead of talking about murder and the police not doing their job ect. It was quite evident police were withholding information and rightly so!

Everyone including the police need to keep an open mind about what may have happened and not zone in on one thing

I agree. It's more than odd for the Police to say this at this point - they're seeking to blame a woman who has come to a potentially violent end ?

Give it a bloody break!!! It's shit like this that forced the polices hands!!! They had to do a concern for welfare visit 2 weeks beforehand!!!! Think about that statement!! Concern for welfare...............

I've been reminded of the tragedy of Alice Gross - a young girl who was abducted, raped and murdered along a canal path. She had anorexia so assumptions were made that she had ran away or harmed herself. It took police a month to find her body tied up and weighted down in the canal. That all happened without anyone seeing or hearing anything.

I live about 15 miles away. I do not believe that she fell into that river and drowned. If she did, it would be easy to find her. It is not a big or deep or fast flowing river.

The police started the distrust by declaring that as fact - when it is about the most unlikely outcome.

The police don't get to declare themselves to be experts while also spouting nonsense.

Something else has happened. personally, I believe she must have left the scene willingly, and I hope that means she is ok somewhere.

Iv had multiple concern for welfare visits and I'm still alive and not immune from being murdered or kidnapped. People need to keep an open mind until the truth is discovered

You may well have done however that does not mean she's been murdered or abducted it possibly means she was suscidal, given what a shit show the mental health services are then...

Honestly theres some amount of shite being said on this thread. Do some of you even listen to yourselves?? This information , personal information, has had to be given out to shut up the conspiricy theorists who all know better than the police. But going by the looneys on this thread its just given them more ammunition.
I dont know why the police don't step down and turn rhe investigation over to the experts on this thread who evidently know much better than them 😬

I'm not saying she was murdered or abducted I'm saying the focus shouldn't just be on suicide just because of her history

They never really had anything to go on. They must have been certain she was a suicide risk. But if she has left of her own accord she would have been seen. They might have been hoping that was the case so didn't want to breach her privacy so soon. But with all the online detectives saying it's her partner it looks like he's just held his hands up and said you know what let's just tell them.

I left my ex because he wouldn't listen to me. He admitted he needs alcohol in his system every day. But insisted he wasn't an alcoholic. I still loved him when I left. But I didn't want our kids to watch him slowly killing himself. A few years later credit crunch hit so wasn't getting as much work. He drank even more started having siezures fell downstairs at his mate's house. He was slowly getting more health problems could hardly walk and having what he said were falls. They were from alcohol withdrawal he was admitted to hospital multiple times to dry out. He would take a flask of coffee everywhere to try and avoid drinking. He used to sneak out of hospital sometimes to the off licence accross the road or go on the bus to weatherspoons. The smell of alcohol coming out his pores was horrendous. His skin was like an orangy red colour and he lost so much weight it was obvious he was at the end of the road.

He wasn't the man I fell in love with. He had alcohol issues before I met him and kept it hidden from me. He used to go for a pint every other night after work. Then it started to be every night. He controlled our finances wouldn't even have the child tax credits paid to me. I had to ask for every penny. We had two children with special needs. So it's not as easy as just going out getting a job. He was found in 2018 by his carer passed away. Nicola wouldn't want her children to watch her go through all that.

Surely suicide is much more common than abduction and murder.

I do not believe that she fell into that river and drowned. If she did, it would be easy to find her. It is not a big or deep or fast flowing river.

You. Have. No. Clue.

I have direct knowledge of a case (as I've mentioned) where someone drowned in any easily accessible area of water. It was searched over and over. It took weeks for the body to be found.

Is it so hard to imagine that none of us have expertise in this area? And the police, divers, investigation team just might know more?

We have no idea why the call to the police was made, none

Very true, but not to worry - give it a bit more speculation and they may choose to tell us that too

As for whoever said they wrote her off from the start, what the hell do folk think all these investigators have been doing?

Exactly this ^

The police started the distrust by declaring that as fact - when it is about the most unlikely outcome.

It's the most likely outcome. Sadly. You haven't a clue.

I hope that means she is ok somewhere.

Everyone would love to hope that. However it is vanishingly unlikely at this point. And the police have the knowledge and prior stats that informs that view

This information , personal information, has had to be given out to shut up the conspiricy theorists who all know better than the police. But going by the looneys on this thread its just given them more ammunition

And your spot on second sentence is precisely why they didn't "have" to give out the personal information at all
A child of six could have seen what would happen and so it's proved ...

Well, I know the actual river and area. I don't live far away. I know that specific stretch of river and I am telling you that if a body is in it, and 2 searches haven't found it, it isn't there or they are severely incompetent. It's not deep, fast flowing or tidal or even wide.

Btw - The police searching Morecambe Bay was a nice touch. Do you know where the Wyre meets the sea? Hint - not there.

She left the scene willingly IMO as the river theory is BS and if she raised hell, someone would have heard as it's not a remote area.

Or she's waited until the dog is out of site and gone over the other side of the bridge. Left her phone dog and harness behind making them think they need to focus on that particular area. She goes further down the river knowing she will get carried out to sea if she goes in the river further downstream.

I know that stretch of river. No way did a healthy woman fall in there and drown and no way could the body have been carried off downstream not to be found.

Have you been to that stretch of river? Do you even know where Garstang is? Lancashire?

@MagicCat83

I don't care if you live in the water

You don't understand how drowning works, or water. I gave you an actual example which of course, you ignored.

You're not an expert. You have no clue what has happened. Not do I, however, the police do, being experts in such matters.

Does that mean they can't make mistakes? Of course not. But you absolutely cannot spout nonsense about the probability or otherwise of drowning. You have no expertise to allow you do so - living nearby makes zero difference.

They are also searching Knottend and Shard bridge, it all leads out to the Irish sea what's your point?

Have you been to that stretch of river? Do you even know where Garstang is? Lancashire?

Nope not a clue (well I do know where Lancashire is!)

It's irrelevant. I have some understanding re drowning in apparently benign waters, and a body still not being found for many weeks.

You knowing the area is just irrelevant.
