Police will hold a press conference today to update the public about the ongoing search for missing mother-of-two Nicola Bulley as they seek to combat disinformation about her disappearance.
The briefing will take place at 11.30am, as speculation about what might have happened to her has continued to grow in the 19 days since she vanished while walking her springer spaniel Willow in St Michael's on Wyre after dropping her two daughters off at school.
At a press conference on February 3 the force first told the public of its “main working hypothesis” that the mortgage adviser fell in the river during a “10-minute window” between 9.10am and 9.20am that day. The force said her disappearance was not being treated as suspicious. Her body has still not been found and detectives extended the search for her to the sea on February 3, saying finding her there “becomes more of a possibility”. A 49-year-old man from Manchester and a 20-year-old woman from Oldham have been arrested on suspicion of malicious communications offences in relation to emails allegedly sent to Wyre Council members.The man has been bailed pending further inquiries until May 12 while the woman remains in custody.
It said it had temporarily removed contact details for “parish and town council members” after Lancashire Police confirmed its investigation. Meanwhile Ms Bulley’s friends and neighbours, including her next-door neighbour and friend Charlotte Drake, have continued to flock to a bridge over the Wyre to lay yellow ribbons with messages which say they still hope she will be found safe and well.
Assistant Chief Constable Peter Lawson and Senior Investigating Officer Detective Superintendent Rebecca Smith will lead the conference.
