Found Deceased UK - Nicola Bulley Last Seen Walking Dog Near River - St Michaels on Wyre (Lancashire) #13

[MollyHarps]

What do you mean? I'm watching a nervous woman stumbling over her words (deepdale?) & repeating herself in a rather amateur way.

I completely disagree.

 

[sriraaacha]

So imo from this I'm getting that... the police think it's suicide since it was by a river. Paul thinks she ran away alone/or went off with someone else since he's been saying "come home" a lot.

 

[GeorgeFormby]

Suicide IMO. It makes sense. Previous indicators will be known to family.

I did get the impression that the police were aware of some issues, perhaps related to stress, financial issues or mental health, without them actually saying that. Is that how it sounded to others, from the early part of the detectives speech?

 

[Noscrubs]

Could she have been pregnant? Would that make her a vulnerable misper?

 

[wackyw]

Does anyone know where this is on a map? And what is the function of a pumping station? Thanks

Due south of the old "abandoned house" is a building noted as "Pump". Migbt be that ....

Someone else posted it a while back, so credit to them, but here's the map

View map: Ordnance Survey, Lancashire XLIV (includes: Kirkland; Nateby; Pilling; Upper Rawcliffe with Tarnacre.) - Ordnance Survey Six-inch England and Wales, 1842-1952

IMO if it was medication making someone unstable physically I think the doctor would have advised against going out alone in isolated areas.

 

[keef]

Oh dear. Specific vulnerabilities doesn't sound good, though I suppose it may mean some physical conditions that would make her vulnerable, a need for medication etc. I hope we get some clarification. I didn't expect this case to have a good outcome but it just got a bit sadder.

Yep. It's only just struck me that when people do things voluntarily like jump off a building or jump into water the vernacular the police always seem to use is that they "fell" rather than they "jumped" or "leapt" as we might more normally say - those words only tend to be used at inquests :|

Yes and that would tie in with the very first presser where Sally Riley paused when asked if this was out of character. JMO.

Another mention of the 'vulnerabilities.' OMG. This is taking a new turn, isn't it? IMO.

 

[in2thegate]

Just been thinking... Would you come out of the entrance to the path and over the road into the field ? There is an entrance there ? Therefor avoiding the CCTV from the Grapes pub ?

Also watching the press conference there is some vulnerability that made the police as concerned as they are.

This gets even more strange and concerning.. There are stuff the police obviously are not telling the media (rightly so)

 

[Coach]

High risk and vulnerabilities speaks volumes

 

[MollyHarps]

She did really well there

Straight to the point and clear.

 

[Fishwick]

Key 'updates' so far IMO.

Identified as having specific vulnerabilities.
Key witnesses know Nicola – and supported by phone – no doubt about who was in the field.
A lot of CCTV to support movements on Nicola and key witnesses.
9.33. Local dog walker finds Willow between bench and gate, harness between bench and river. Phone on bench still on teams call. Enquires with vet around dog identity.
No further information from Fitbit because it wasn’t synched.
Doing further work on her social media accounts.
Myths: Derelict house searched 3 times with permission of owner. Red van – still trying to track, but don’t believe it to be suspicious. Don’t find fishermen suspicious. Glove – don't believe to be relevant, not Nicola’s. Have been helped by caravan site owners.

Perhaps most importantly – please respect families privacy on the vulnerabilities and on damaging speculation.

I just don't understand it - PA said they are a very happy family

 

[in2thegate]

Rawcliffe Lane ?

 

[Sarahlou]

Might sound crazy but you know when PA said everything was unusually calm and organised that morning? That did make me think of when people suddenly seem calmer/happier when they know everything is about to be over.

 

[ginnyw]

This is very concerning and sad. When those grainy doorbell-photo images of NB were released, I thought that she looked very gaunt and unsmiling. JMO.

Yes. A friend of mine was like that. Two days later she had taken her own life.

Could be related to a financial situation especially with the mortgage market the way it is. JMO.
