'A top Scots criminologist has detailed five possible theories behind the disappearance of
Nicola Bulley as the search for the missing mum enters its seventh day.''
''David Wilson, emeritus professor of criminology at Birmingham City University, said police will consider five options when investigating the disappearance. The theories include an accident, a suicide, a person going missing voluntarily, an abduction or murder.''
''Lancashire Police have said they do not believe any crime has been committed and are treating the incident as a missing person inquiry. Professor Wilson said in the first days of the investigation, detectives will have looked at Nicola's social media profiles, searching Facebook and looking at texts to find out any clues.''
''He said: "They will build up a picture of her, not just in terms of what is known about her in public, but things which might not be known, things she was keeping to herself." The expert said police will also look at the missing mum's bank account usage, to see if any money was used just before she disappeared.''
"It has made local women fearful. If they have husbands or partners, they have been taking the dogs out instead."
Former Daily Record columnist Professor David Wilson said police will consider five options when investigating the disappearance including abduction or an accident.
