England: Police ask to end personal investigations after mother’s disappearance

Believing they were doing the right thing, English citizens began searching uninhabited houses, risking being guilty of trespassing, in order to find this 45-year-old woman who had been missing since January 27.

What happened to Nicola Bulley? Since January 27, England has been shocked by the disappearance of this 45-year-old woman who made headlines across the Channel. Lancashire Police say Nicola Bulley disappeared within “a ten minute window” in countryside near the village of St Michael’s on Wyre, in north-west England. She had just dropped her daughters off at school and was walking her dog.

Stop parallel investigations

During a press conference on Tuesday, the local police, through their superintendent Sally Riley, launched a call to the population. The latter urged the surrounding population to stop trying to find the forty. In recent days, many English people are conducting a parallel investigation on their own initiative to find the missing person and are trying to search unoccupied houses.

“Even though people think it might be a hint, even though it might be well-intentioned, I ask you to refrain from doing it. In some cases, it can be criminal if they come in and cause damage or commit theft,” he said. , in comments repeated by the independent.

The authorities have also asked the population to stop the “distressing” speculation about this file. At the beginning of the month, relatives of the disappeared had already spoken out on this issue, asking to stop the dissemination of “painful to read” hypotheses.

Accident?

On the merits of the case, Sally Riley indicates that 40 detectives are mobilized full time to follow 500 different leads. They are also trying to contact the 700 motorists who were passing through the area at the time of the disappearance. She also added that searches of neighboring houses were not on the agenda.

“There is still no criminal element identified, and we do not expect there to be any in this investigation,” he said, and again insisted that the police favored the thesis of the accident.

But Nicola Bulley’s family and friends refuse to believe this police theory. They highlighted the absence of footprints in the wet earth. Police searched the river but found no trace of Nicola Bulley.

With the Times, Peter Faulding, leader of the specialized rescue team launched in search of Nicola Bulley, says that if the mother of the family fell into the water, it is possible that her body was moved by the current. “Clearly, over time, the open sea is becoming more and more of a possibility,” he says.
