RIP Nicola Bulley.

Heartbreaking, so so sorry for her girls, partner, parents, family and friends. Nicola, sweetheart, I don't see a mentally ill alcoholic when I look at your photos, I see a beautiful, happy, lady who obviously adored her children. I hope news will eventually come that this was an accident because it would be such a terrible waste of a life, things are never as difficult as they seem in retrospect. Hope you are at peace now x

Sad news.
I can’t help but feel a bit saddened by the family statement, possibly not the best time for that. It felt more about Paul than poor Nicola.
IMO.

God help the children, heartbroken for them.

I didn't feel that way. I felt it was absolutely the right time to do that. Had to be said now while the waiting media and public was watching.

They’ve also just replayed the press conference, conveniently without the statement from the family.

That's pure brass neck.

I agree, somethingwilldo. Their ire is understandable but perhaps waiting until NB is laid to rest might have been more prudent. Like the police press conference the other day, it was a lashing out.

Those poor kids. I can't imagine breaking it to them.

RIP Nicola, my thoughts go to her friends and family...especially the little ones.

Just an observation and no opinion cast, but the police have always made a case of specifically saying they don't suspect 3rd party involvement in all other conferences, but did not mention it today. Is that A) because they don't want to overstep the corners investigation given the criticism or B) because they've sene soemthing that could indicate that and don't want to say no involvement and it later comes out there is/may be

NO

I really, really hope that the family can be afforded privacy in their grief & be able to hold a funeral away from the mawkish glare of press & public

Whilst there's not been a formal identification, it's thought to be a females body, 1 mile downstream of where Nicola Bulley went missing. No other people have been reported missing in that area. So it's not confirmed it's her, but it's all but a formality at this point.


Very good observation. With the voice her friends have managed to have in the hunt for her, you'd think they would have spoken out if that wasn't true.

I imagine police will have confirmed this with her doctor too. They won't just take her partners word for it.

Its been confirmed that it is Nicola. MHSRIP.

they did play the press release that police mention sky news though

That's pure brass neck.

I couldn’t believe it (but I also can if that makes sense!)

They’ve also limited who can comment on their Facebook posts

They just showed the uniformed officer on sky news live, I’m assuming on their website it’s the full clip!

Very sad. The family’s statement was heartbreaking. Well done to them for standing up against the press. RIP Nicola x

yes exactly and I do really feel sorry for NB's family and LE

PF is still being given airtime. I’m sorry but I believe he gave the family false hope. JMO
RIP Nicola. I hope the family are finally left alone to grieve.

IMO, by the time poor NB is laid to rest the gutter press will have another victim in their sights, another family to destroy.

Just obscenely awful for NBs family and friends to have their grief compounded in such a manner.

I’m watching Sky News and conveniently they’re completely ignoring the scathing attack on the media, themselves in particular.

IMO one good thing that could come out of this horrendous situation is that someone takes a long hard look at what behaviours by the media are permissible. LP will be scrutinised for their failings, I hope the media receive the same scrutiny.

RIP Nicola, my heart is broken for your family.

I'm watching Sky and they are replaying the reading of the statement in full, right now.

It's so very sad to see 'found deceased' added to the title. Thinking of Nicola's loved ones at this horrific time.

 

[BrittMontero]

I think it's more social media that has been reprehensible regarding this case, not the legitimate, professional media.

I think media contacting the family direct once it was announced a body was found is absolutely unforgiveable.
