Really? Could be another John Darwin. Or worse yet, Nicola Payne. Or Shanann Watts. This could go loads of ways.
Just sounds like a badly planned, cheap drama atm.
People are moaning about the police saying she had issues with alcohol, but I actually think if they had declared she was a bit vulnerable from the beginning, the search might have been a bit quicker, and the public might have reacted stronger in trying to find her. Might not have made a difference of course, but it seems odd to give that information now. Feels like they've been very slow and one dimensional with the investigation.
The fella who lead the underwater search team said they would have used a different strategy if they'd had this information.
No idea what that would have entailed but he has got a lot of experience of these situations.

Checked the pubs first?
The family came out and said it didn't they?People are moaning about the police saying she had issues with alcohol, but I actually think if they had declared she was a bit vulnerable from the beginning, the search might have been a bit quicker, and the public might have reacted stronger in trying to find her.

The police have known this from the start, haven’t they? Why would the search teams not have been privy to the same information?The fella who lead the underwater search team said they would have used a different strategy if they'd had this information.

Well the fella running the search is saying they weren't.The police have known this from the start, haven’t they? Why would the search teams not have been privy to the same information?
Yeah unless they took her.I find the blame culture in Britain just baffling to be honest. How can the police be blamed for somebody going missing? I don't even like the police but come on ffs.
I don't think they're blaming them for her going missing, they're blaming them for the way they've conducted the investigation. Whether that's justified or not I don't know, but something very odd is going on.I find the blame culture in Britain just baffling to be honest.

I am now pondering over the first thought there. Would make more sense if she just decided to vanish wouldn't it. And leaving the dog and phone would make people believe she fell into the river.Maybe the police just have no clue where she is.
If she's decided to vanish or if somebody has made her vanish then they might never find her.
None if this has added up, let's be honest. They are dying on this hill regarding her being in the river, but have had their pants pulled down by an expert that has searched it extensively.
The press conference by the police yesterday was bizarre and defensive, and it feels like they've released this information to justify why they've seemingly been looking properly in one place only.
I'll also defend the police when necessary, but this is just odd I'm afraid. The amount of ex high profile detetectives jumping in to criticise is pretty telling as well. If it turns out she isn’t in the river, it really would be a complete shit storm wouldn't it?
Hope so. Wherever she is, I hope she is safe and well.One of my oldest friends has serious issues with alcohol. He stays sober for months sometimes a year or two then every now and again he secretly squirrels away money until he has enough to go on a massive bender. Just disappears. No one knows where he is, usually in a cheap B&B until he gets kicked out, then sleeps rough until the alcohol/money runs out, then gets massive alcohol withdrawal symptoms and goes completely mental (usually in a public place) then ends up in hospital which is when family and friends finally know where he is and he’s safe. 3 weeks last but one time.
I’m kind of hoping that’s what’s happening in this case, at least her family will get her back and she could start receiving treatment.
Idiot.What an absolute bellend this guy is.
Nicola Bulley: YouTuber Dan Duffy arrested and fined after searching for missing woman

it's not an unreasonable assumption is it? Where is she then? Has anybody reported a sighting?
Tbh I wasn’t going to look at this thread. But…The amount of attention it is getting is ridiculous. I really hope she is safe and alive and is found soon, but it doesn't warrant this level of media attention. Around 170,000 go missing every year.

It wasn't an unreasonable assumption at the very beginning, however it has been three weeks and she still hasn't been found. The river has being combed by experts who are adamant she isn't in it. It was clear early on in those searches that this could be the outcome, which was ages ago.
Releasing this information now is beneficial in helping to find her, how? They should have either done it at the very beginning or not at all. At this moment in time they are just using it to cover their own backs and hit out at criticism they are rightly getting for their one dimensional approach, and poor communication.
tbf, you do wonder what his different stratgey would have been. Look harder?Checked the pubs first?
Is it even possible for somebody to drown themselves?
I think most drownings are somebody drowning themselves aren’t they?Is it even possible for somebody to drown themselves?
Deliberately ? I think that's the point being madeI think most drownings are somebody drowning themselves aren’t they?
