Nicola Bulley: how the search unfolded

A behind-the-scenes team has been working with police. Here we break down day by day what has happened since she went missing and what has gone wrong

www.thetimes.co.uk

I can't read the article but seems that finally the other scenarios are being taken more seriously.

PF described NB as 'a creature of habit' regarding her dropping the kids off and dog walk route, as per her strava trackings, she took the same route and same timings pretty much every time. Also PA has stated this. It strikes me that as such, anyone who was stalking NB, or who had any form of malicious intent toward NB, or even who just so much as 'wanted a word' with her on any subject would know exactly where she was at that time of day firstly going by the time of day and it being a school day and secondly as a result of her car being parked up.

If this missing person case can be considered in the same manner as a abduction / murder case, I believe it will take on a whole new tone and what possible reasons anyone could have for harming or interfering with NB could be fully explored. JMO MOO

I assume that the abandoned house that PA went to is up that small road off of the main road

 

[bringmeacupoft]

I’m not sure but I used to be able to see her data, walks etc and now I can’t. Maybe has been set to private?! IMO.

It’s gone for me too

 

[veqzer]

That’s weird I can’t see any of it! Are you following her?

Yes, good point, I am. So perhaps it did get set to private because I refreshed and it's still up as I wrote this.

I think you may have misunderstood me. I said I don't believe she's gone off grid. I am saying I don't think she wanted to disappear.

I am saying perhaps she acted on impulse and called it a day.

called it a day - as in she ended her life, not went into hiding...

Now that the handling of the case is under scrutiny and maybe with some fresh eyes on it, I suspect there could well be a shake up in approach.

Oh I see, understood, apologies

I have also wondered if NB had a sudden reactive state but if so, where is she? She would have been found by now and if she didn't go in the water the dog would have followed her.

 

[Observe_dont_Absorb]

I am suspicious about the person who said they tied the dog to the bench with string. When the dog was found there was no string on it, so the assumption would be it must have broken free of the string, but there was no string on the dog when it was found, nor was there string on the bench. Therefore the string can't have been broken, so was there actually any string used in the first place? That person has been used to make timelines, but if they are wrong about the string, their timings may be equally unreliable.

I'm shocked that more people aren't more suspicious about this whole storyline -but- here on WS we aren't allowed to 'sleuth' or even speculate about any persons or any narratives that aren't stated as of interest by LE / via mainstream media.

 

[Observe_dont_Absorb]

Yes, talking of character traits, does websleuths allow us to say if somebody has deleted social media stuff in the last few days?

No, unless they have been declared a 'person of interest'

I think so. If you do the sky view on google maps, you can see there is a building down that road (to the right, with some sort of a yard) - maybe that's the one?

 

[lvbut]

Oh yes. I concede that he said that. Didn’t it come from a partner?

A journalist told his parents before he did. Awful stuff. The lengths some of them will go to is quite something.

AFAIK the witness never mentioned string, only that she tied the dog up. The latest LP info, which I posted link earlier, mentions the dog lead at the scene, so have to presume the witness will have used the dog lead to tie the dog up.

Yep, or the one at the very end of the road

How sad he’s been targeted in this way

 

[Simplistic67]

Yep, or the one at the very end of the road

Im not sure if we are in the same area...Its by that Alpaca place. Ive just looked at the area on google maps and there is a dog walkers beware sign on a lamppost next to a path that leads to fields beyond...Gave me a slight chill TBH

 

[SpideySense]

I read a different, non-suspicious meaning in Ron's "That would have been my first [thought?]". Not expressing condition (would have been, IF...), but high probability. As in:
A: "Do you remember the guy we saw at The White Horse?"
B: "Yes, that would have been Peter's brother."
Ron is just saying something like "probably" or ''if I remember correctly", IMO. A Google search taught me that grammarians call it 'epistemic would'.

Thank you for that! I completely forgot about that particular usage of “would have been,” and you’re right - not odd at all in retrospect.

Missing mum of two seen 'laughing and joking' moments before she disappeared

Nicola Bulley, 45, disappeared while out on a dog walk last Friday morning after dropping her children at school in St Michael's-on-Wyre, Lancashire, before police launched a major search operation

Thanks for this, I hadn't seen this report but then I don't usually check the Mirror

PA has stated he was already worried when NB was merely 10-15 minutes late, BEFORE he had been given ANY news of anything to cause that worry. Most partners wouldn't be worried to the point they are getting a jacket on and going to look after 10-15 minutes. He was watching the clock, as soon as she's 10-15 minutes late he's already panicking. To me this is quite telling, and likely lends itself to the situation circa Jan 10 IMO.

I’m not sure I agree, respectfully.

I actually asked my husband what he would do if I was for some reason out walking the dog, when he was home from work, alone.

He said he knows roughly how long I usually am walking to dog due to conversations we have when he’s at work and I’m and home and I take the dog out. He said if I was 10-15 mins late AND unreachable by phone after several attempts at trying to get hold of me (my phone is usually safety in my pocket but on “loud/ ringer” when I’m out, weirdly I have different ring tones for different people so I know who is calling without having to look) then he would then come looking for me.

Nicola Bulley excitedly made spa break plans the night before she vanished

Nicola, who "lived for her children", had also bought tickets to watch them perform at choir and gymnastics shows in recent weeks

This is a different picture from the one that's now being portrayed from the family. Specifically how Nicola was in great health etc
