Nicola Bulley’s family condemn ‘wildly inaccurate’ speculation about her death

Nicola Bulley’s family have attacked what they said was “wildly inaccurate speculation” about her death on social media as a coroner found she drowned after accidentally falling into cold water.

She vanished in January after dropping her daughters at school and taking her usual dog walk next to a Lancashire river.

This afternoon, an inquest found that she died after suffering ‘cold water shock’ in the near freezing river and there was ‘no evidence’ to suggest suicide.
