Nicola Bulley Missing #4

[PhallusSizeMedium]

The fact remains that no one (that we know of yet) knows what happened to this lady. Local or not. I've never tripped up my front step before, but did recently (sober may I add) and twisted my ankle quite badly. As others have said, accidents happen. Speculation and conspiracy theories help no one, least not her family who will undoubtedly come across it.

I just can't help thinking about her poor young girls. What pain and confusion and heartbreak they must be going through right now. Whatever has happened, I hope a conclusion is drawn soon for their poor sakes.

also been quite cold last couple of weeks first thing in morning frosty so people saying she wouldnt have fell she could well have just slipped on black ice that she couldnt see or tell was slippy. again hope to God she hasnt gone in the water and is alive still i hope the family get some answers soon those poor kids

smart dog eh?

Springers are the best.
Still don’t think she’d follow me into a river though.

Because you need a search warrant to search people’s homes? And to get that you need to prove you have a motive to do that?
If someone goes missing in your street, would you expect the police to come and search your house without a warrant?

I think I would do what ever I could to assist the police and if that meant them searching my property without a warrant I would not see it as a problem!

I’ve found myself tired of pondering these theories which go nowhere, but Now wondering what we can learn from this incident.
so many women r going missing with & without malicious motives.
what can we do to protect ourselves in a situation where we could suddenly disappear? I’ve found myself asking, what if it was me?
if I ever find myself in a position where I’m unable to avoid fate, like drowning, kidnap etc… what can I do to leave a trace, or a mark behind, to give my family answers & to help a potential search party?

I think we as women on this thread can learn a valuable lesson and share ideas on how we can leave a trace if we ever found ourselves in the same position at Nicola. Coz let’s be real, it can happen to anyone.

I’ve been thinking about getting AirTags & sewing them into outer clothing of myself & family members.
Anyone else wanna share tips?

I’ve read of women leaving a strand or two of their hair in cabs/taxis (in case anything happened to them), also sending the registration to loved ones and describing the driver in a text.
Add the app ‘Find My‘ on your your phone, you can choose who you would like to be able to see your whereabouts, loved ones, family etc.
If you’re walking anywhere especially in the dark cross over the road when safe every now again on your journey, so you make it more difficult for someone to follow you, at least without you knowing.
Talk to someone on the phone if you’re walking in the dark, perhaps even detailing where you walking, street names, etc.
Carry a grape alarm and have it in your hand ready to use, especially if walking.
If someone is trying to abduct you, do whatever you can to get someone’s attention, even if it’s breaking something a window etc. Or if they’ve got hold of you knee, or kick them in the groin big time.
If you fall in the water try to remove heavy clothing/shoes while treading water with your feet. Try to stay calm as mad as that sounds, even lie on your back to keep you floating. If you can fill item of clothing with air by tying up the ends, then use it as a float. Added link to explain better what I mean.

I have been pondering...

Let's say she is found in the river. Will thay be it then? Case closed and it goes down as an accident?

I don't want to drag things out but say someone did harm her and put her in the river to make it look like than accident then theve got away with it.

You can tell by post mortem, if she was forcibly drowned there's usually defensive markers.

A mother did this with her five year old son. Filled his rucksack and pockets with rocks. Devastating.

That is awful

The device he's got can see the river bed in great detail (every twig and stone according to him). I assume that's relatively true as it does seem a good bit of kit.

Fingers crossed! Honestly this case has baffled me so much, obviously like many others as we are almost on thread 5

Why does this expert keep saying that Nicolas body would have come to the surface by now? I can think of many examples of drowning stories where the body has been found weeks and weeks later. It's not unusual!

[Toffeebythesea]

Wow I've just googled what an air tag is makes me want to sew them into all my family's clothing!

 

[juststatingthetruthx555]

I’d be surprised if there was time for someone to:
Murder
Put body in bin bag
Weigh bin bag down
Secure ends
Dump in river

In under 20 minutes…

Although I’ve never tried to do even one of those things so I can’t be sure

I’d like to think so too!

 

[Black.bird]

Sorry I’ve tried to read back as much as I can, the whole being connected on a teams call, the people she was on the call with, did she not say to them oh hang on a moment I need to deal with the dog or whatever?
Unless it was the type of meeting where you keep your camera off and mic off and just listen in on a presentation type thing?

She was on mute and had her camera off. It was the type of meeting where she wasn't required to speak or be visibly present.

Because he’s talking absolute balls. I assume you mean Foulding from SGI?
Honestly he shouldn’t be allowed to speak.

 

[JellyWobbles]

I’ve been thinking, what if she seen someone that wanted to stop for a chat, she took the harness off the dog to run on whilst they spoke, and set the phone down. Not sure what happens after ofc accident or foul play. But just a likely unprobable thought

 

[Ck13]

If the dog was running between bench and gate surely that means she left through the gate and dog wanted out too . Phone placed on bench . Camera not working in area . Police have failed on this one

 

[libby_lou]

My thoughts are ( don’t shoot me down ) maybe she was sat on the bench listening into the work call whilst willow did her run freely, possibly for a few seconds lost sight of willow put her phone on the bench and maybe went towards the river to see if she was in there? Tripped/fell or what not which is how she ended up in the river seconds later willow turns back up panics and gets agitated as she cannot see her owner,
who’s to say willow even seen her fall or in the water maybe her agitated state was because she has lost her owner.
I have an ankle length gilet when it’s been in the washing machine it’s so heavy so imagine all the winter gear she was wearing being weighed down with water.
There is obviously other examples of why she didn’t just “climb out”
Maybe she fell face first? it’s possible to drown in the smallest amounts of water possible Cardiac arrest or Heart attack
I do hope she’s found so the family can get some closure otherwise they will be in denial forever more

I think it takes a few weeks for a body to surface andmaybe longer in a tidal area

 

[DwightSchrute123]

Was the dog dry?

Stop because I’m bursting out laughing and my partner doesn’t know I’m a tattle troll

 

[MacPishFlaps]

That is correct. It can take months. It is all dependant on the river, weather, all sorts of factors. I do not know why this 'expert' is being given the time of day

I’ve not read about the gate, only that Willow was near the bench/phone agitated. But even if she were, could it not be because she was on her own and knew that’s the way she came in and wanted to get home, especially as she‘s done that same walk so often.

Girls I am consumed by this. I have a 6 month old baby and at 3am this morning I was under the covers reading this, it’s actually mental! Part of me thinks she went in but due to growing up with Netflix and real crime documentaries I think we’re all now more reluctant to accept she went in. Part of me really thinks something sinister was going on. Her poor wee girls it’s just unimaginable the pain they are going through without their mummy
