Nicola Bulley search expert says video is 'proof' missing mum didn't fall in river
- last year
The diving expert who led the hunt for missing mum Nicola Bulley today (Thurs) said this video is 'proof' she didn't fall into the river where police believe she did.
Peter Faulding, 60, says the clip of the River Wyre showing it to be slow-moving, meaning her body would have sunk “very quickly” and remained nearby if she’d gone in.
He also said the rocks by the bank, which would have been under just 2ft of water when she went missing, mean she could have simply “stood up” if she’d fallen down.
He said the clip makes him believe Nicola didn't fall into the river, in St Michael's in Wyre, Lancs., when she vanished 13 days ago while walking her dog.
And he felt a “wider land search” of outbuildings and sheds was now needed after his team’s sonar scans of the river failed to find any proof of her body in the river.
