In all likelihood she fell into the river, however, it could have been some looney that attacked her on the walk and pushed her injured or dead into the river !
There was the case of Ashling Murphy in Ireland who was murdered at 4pm in broad daylight jogging along the canal somewhere in Ireland, people on the other side of the canal saw her being attacked but couldn't do anything, except shout at the murderer., There was that lady, Julia James, walking her dog who was also attached and murdered.
Anyone have another theory that she actually left willingly? (getting into a car at some stage between 9.10am approx and 9.35am)If someone else was involved, the position of the lead, phone, harness etc could be an attempt to make it look as though Nicola left them there in an organised manner. I'm thinking of Reggie Perrin who faked his suicide by leaving his clothes on the beach, by the water. Was this an attempt to make it looked like she had committed suicide? I'm just exploring every angle.

Police removed evidence in bags and the area has reopened.
Car park reopened now though it says...That's a worrying development![]()
This is where my head is going to. Maybe something happened earlier on the walk around the tow path/allotment lane where theres dense vegetation. The 2 witness sightings later on were of Willow and a person (big jacket, hoody, hat, so hard to tell exactly who it was), not nessecarily NB. Neither witness interacted with NB directly, just the dogs, and from my dog walks they typically run to eachother in the middle of a field.

Cos they took evidence away in bags...Car park reopened now though it says...
But is it related?Cos they took evidence away in bags...
It is a good point. My spaniels can be distracted by birds, squirrels and rabbits and can disappear for quite some time if on the trail of something. Only other day I had to search for mine in sand dunes as I was worried he’d got lost ( he was busy burying a seagull) so if Willow disappeared for a while this could have led Nicola to try and find him close to the bank. A possibilityYou make a very good point. We hadn't thought of squirrels. Thanks for sharing. JMO
I've been trying to find out if the harness fasteners were found closed or open. I was stumped as to why she would remove the harness but then I wondered if something had happened to panic the dog and make him struggle out of the harness but this would mean it would likely be found with the fasteners still closed.I've seen various comments about the lead/harness and it being moved upon discovery, so I'm not sure what state it was definitely in or whether it was unusual?
The phone placement isn't unusual for me. I often do this, especially if I was on call. What I'd like to know was whether it was on loud speaker, or she had headphones, either wireless or wired. Do we know that?
