Missing woman Nicola Bulley - inquest (P 158)

Glad they've found Nicola and that the family can now find some assemblance of closure. A little perplexed as to how the search teams failed to identify items of entanglement downstream in the Wyre were a body could become snagged.
Looking at the various aerial shots there only appears to be about 3 very small patches of trees along the bank where a body could potentially get caught up along the entire stretch of river from the bench to the patch of trees where she's been found.
Given these are such an obvious point for a body to get caught it does seem very poor that these few small patches of trees weren't apparently thoroughly searched.
 
Very sad situation and I hope those little girls are ok through this.

The media need to be held to account on this, from sky to BBC news to almost every paper in between, they've been disgraceful in the way they've acted, the words they've printed and the hurt they've no doubt caused.

That's the media for you they've always been the same. I saw an interview with an ex head of the CPS who said the police weren't forthcoming and clear enough in their early statements. This left to a vacuum which the press filled and helped stoke the social media frenzy.
 
I watched this afternoons live police press conference on sky news and the family statement name checked sky news as the main culprit for the disgusting coverage. Cameras returned to the studio and there was zero reaction to what had just been said, never mind an ounce of remorse, guilt or any kind of apology
 
Often think the most boring explanation is the one that's probably right. The dog has probably got free from the harness or gone too near the river, she's gone to retrieve it from the water's edge and put the lead back on. At some point she's slipped and fallen in, and if the river's moving quickly then that's it.

When I was 8/9 years old and learning to ride a bike, I was cycling along the Mersey down by Burnage Rugby Club, just before you hit Parrs Wood. Took one hand off the handlebars and went down the bank straight into the river. My parents were there so they fished me out, but if I was on my own I'd have been fucked.

I never made a noise. It took 3/4 seconds to even realise what was happening, then once I hit the water I lost sense of myself. Thankfully it was a dry summer day so the water was slow and fairly shallow, because when it rains heavily the water comes right up to the banks and moves quickly. Could have easily been a goner.

Like I said, my dad fished me out and the worst that happened was I got a really nasty stomach bug from swallowing half the river (made the mistake of going to a City-Arsenal game the next day, the one where Lauren scored that really bizarre own goal, and missed half the game), but any colder/wetter and who knows.

Her poor family. Especially her daughters. There's nobody like mum in the whole universe.

No need to post anything new. Just gonna quote what I said over two weeks ago.
 
Throughout the vermin media, social media and on here still folk speculate, blame, theorise, whinge and complain. Just pathetic. Poor, poor children....
Of course we do, it’s part of what makes us human. We communicate and gossip. Our brains are wired to speculate, blame, theorise, whinge and complain. Whether we’ve not written it on social media or on here, we’ve all done it in conversation in the pub, in the coffee shop or at work. And most of us have received a joke about it within days or hours of the news breaking on our WhatsApp groups, as we do with all big news stories.

 
I only hope and pray we're not to become TV privy to that newly renowned medium Jason Rothwell, who claims he assisted in finding Nicola by using his psychic gifts. Any remote sense of empathy toward the family, cognitive emotional or otherwise, would be lost unto a world of crassness and insesitivity.
He'll be waiting for his phone to ring with offers of future employment or setting up shop as an "influencer."

In fact they went straight back to bashing the police.
