After watching the programme last night, I’m leaning toward foul play. I believe the phone was put at a place as a decoy and Nicola may have gone in the river but much, much further away. I don’t believe she went in the river by the bench for one minute now.
Also, the time scales were much different than I thought and a great more amount of time was available to whoever did this.
I absolutely don’t think she has taken her own life and if she did I think she would have made her decision known and not planted the phone and harness. I appreciate that people don’t think rationally but no mother would want her children to never know what happened. Much more likely she’d have left a note. So, I believe third party and she may/may not be still alive. I’m disappointed that the police didn’t widen this much earlier. They’ve messed up in my opinion. With everything that has happened surrounding the police over recent times, they need to be well ahead of their game. Trust has disappeared for many people, myself included.
I’ve actually got a man that stalks me. The police are aware but he is ALWAYS a tad too close to not get in trouble. He’s been given warnings, cbo’s etc but never goes too far. I’ve emailed the head of my police force and I’ve clearly said one day he will go too far. He frightens me to the point that 2 years ago last month, I nearly ended my own life. The pain of knowing that someone wants you gone is frightening. I do things that I shouldn’t just so I feel I have some control. We never know what goes on behind closed doors. Just this morning I’ve shared my location permanently with my son and daughter in law on our phones.
Sorry to offload but I feel this gas helped just typing this out xx
