Amy Bradley is missing (Netflix)

[VibeCurator]

Is anyone watching? I’ve read about this case before so was very interested to see they’ve made a Netflix docu-series, especially since they have her actual family/friends/real witnesses involved in it.

Ive watched one episode so far. It’s such a sad but strange and intriguing case. Her poor mum and dad.

What I wonder though, is the lingering on the website on key dates from one IP address in Barbados. That's a bit of a conundrum

Surely if Amy was still alive and on Barbados she’d have been found by now?

And what proof is there that what the family has said is true and not their emotions playing tricks on them.

But how about the distinct possibility that some evil person is deliberately playing a horrible joke on them?

I've followed this case through documentaries over the years, personally I don't think she is alive, nor do I think the photograph is her - the picture can't be definitively dated, and my hunch is it is much older than the Bradley case.

The sightings are probably all smoke and mirrors too - commonly you get many sightings of missing people, simply because so many people can look similar to a casual glance.

If I recall.it wasent the parents that noticed this didn't somebody set up.a website?I
I don't think.Amy,s still alive either
Imo she either went over board
Or she was trafficked for a few years but got rid of the it when it became to.problematic
Or something happened on board and she died in an accident and was disposed of somehow

@x2boys thank you for this - If I recall.it wasent the parents that noticed this didn't somebody set up.a website?I

Thats rung a bell with me and I’m inclined to believe it’s being made more of than what it is - a horrible person torturing the family, and people who run the website/family desperately wanting it to be Amy

Or something happened on board and she died in an accident and was disposed of somehow

I don’t believe a person could come in off the balcony and leave the cabin without even one of 3 sleeping people also in the cabin being aware of it.

That is a classic Netflix move - present one side and build a narrative around that.

Did the family even consider she could have fallen overboard?

I thought she’d possibly fallen overboard until I watched the part that detailed the website Amy’s family created, dedicated to her case and have been able to track the IP addresses of visitors. Over time, they noticed one particular IP address that visited the site more than any other. Although the frequency of visits from this IP has decreased over the years, it remains a consistent visitor. Interestingly, this IP address stands out because its accesses the site on significant dates, such as the birthdays and anniversaries of Amy’s parents and brother, as well as other meaningful occasions that would only be known to someone extremely close to the family.

Even more compelling is that this particular IP address traces back to Barbados. Considering the numerous independent sightings of Amy in Barbados over the years, from individuals with no connection to each other, it all feels too much to be mere coincidence.

This is true. There was a shooting at the top of our street once. The police called round to ask about it. I was 100% certain it had happened at just after 3am because I was up feeding my baby at the time and heard the shot. I thought it was a car backfiring. But it had happened just before 1am, when I had also been up feeding or settling the baby, and I had got the two feeds mixed up in my sleep- deprived state.

The FBI man said the rail was high, even on him, and he was tall. It would be hard for him to fall overboard, let alone a 5'6 girl. She had been drinking a lot but had slept and it was dawn so she was probably more hung over than drunk by then.

Her cigarettes and lighter were gone. The door to the room was open, as if she had gone back in. These things make me think she headed back out of the room.

@LucyintheskywithdiamonndsNo she reconciled with the girlfriend a few days before she went on the cruise. The girlfriend said this in the final episode

I thought she said it wasn't a suicide note. A message in a bottle. She also said they had made up since. And that she saw her just a couple of days before the cruise - visited the new flat, met the dog etc.

This is the height of the railing on the balcony.

Did she only have one pair of shoes?
She may have left the room barefoot - not planning to go anywhere except up on deck to have a cigarette and watch the dawn. Then something happened.

That doesn’t change that things are even more murky if you happen to fall victim to a crime on a cruise ship. I have family who worked on cruise ships. Clearly bad things don’t befall most people who go but certainly one should be more vigilant in a situation where lawlessness is easier to get away with.

Crikey, that is actually quite low. Some people have reported that the railings were high. Not by this photo! And id not personally be sleeping out there.

Time and time again people dismiss others knowing about special dates in their life when it’s actually quite easy to find the information - even without a high profile family providing the world with the information this heartbroken family have.

There are also the people around them who more than likely talk about the family and give out even more information to those around them who then probably go and talk to others - and before we know it a whole new pool of people are in possession of info the family aren’t aware is out there/don’t want to believe could possibly be out there, for obvious reasons.

The world is full of horrible people and if the visits to the IP address are something very real, and not the family making more out of something very innocent/co-incidental; I think they can only be explained away by it being the malicious behaviour of someone who’s done their homework on the family in order to deliberately torment them.

This is an interesting video on YT where a guy actually takes video recordings of the whole ship, including where the Bradley’s were staying. The railing is indeed low, with nothing to catch you if you were unfortunate enough to fall overboard.

The guy also mentions that when the FBI came to investigate, they found hand prints on the railing and foot prints, opposite on the sliding door as if someone had balanced themselves on the railing 😱

This is something that has definitely been misreported a number of times. When I first heard about this case, the person reporting on it said the railings were high. Not the case!

Ummm that was told to him by the cruise director. Firstly how would the cruise director know that, the fbi wouldn’t have told him. And secondly, I wouldn’t trust a thing that came out of his mouth. He came across as completely cold and unfeeling in the documentary and so arrogant. Some very worrying traits there.

I am surprised at so many people thinking the family would wake up with doors opening and closing. I certainly wouldn't! At that age I would have walked around with no shoes on too, although I wouldn't now. But the most likely answer is that she went overboard, either by herself, or an altercation with someone else.

@HarryVanderspeigle I base my thoughts on having done many a cruise and knowing what it’s like in a cabin when balcony doors open. And 4 adults in a cabin even with 3 in various stages of sleep - you’d sense someone walking around in it and opening doors.

@Weepixie I agree. And I'd also think it strange if she was leaving the cabin entirely that she'd leave the balcony door open. Surely you'd shut it behind you so as not to disturb everyone else?

If it's true that there were footprints on the balcony doors then I think it's even more clear that she fell overboard.

The FBI guy said the balcony fence was high. He said something like “im a tall guy and it was mid chest on me”. So seems unlikely she’d fall over accidentally?

I’ve watched episode 1 so far, what an odd case, but the most obvious explanation is usually the right one that she’s probably gone overboard…

Also, is the brother called Brad Bradley?!

I honestly think what she said about the ship being close to the port and wanting to beat the ship and swim to Port was what happened. After quite a bit to drink this would be something you would really think was a good idea.
Especially with the shoes still there and the table pushed up against the edge she probably launched herself over. Lots of cruise ships arrive into port about 6 am onwards and the timing would be right for her to think I'm gonna swim to shore

Yes, I wouldn’t class the railings as ‘high’. It would give me the willies going near it (I am very risk averse though!). I can see how if you stepped up on something for a better view to take a photo or to give you more clearance if the ship to throw up or something, you could go over.

The weird bloke next door said Amy would lean across to talk to him, didn’t he? It would be interesting to see a picture of balconies side by side from outside the ship to see how much you would have to lean over to do so. That might give an indication of how confident she was navigating the railings.

Everyone calls him Brad so I assume so ?
