The mysterious death of Nicola Bulley, a British mother of two, who disappeared on January 27, 2023, has been shrouded in public speculation for months. The recent release of the autopsy and post-mortem reports has provided some clarity on the circumstances surrounding Bulley’s demise and dispelled various online theories.
Bulley’s body was discovered in the River Wyre on February 19, 2023, prompting a substantial search effort involving police, divers, helicopters, canines, and drones. Criticism arose concerning the police’s handling of the case, particularly their disclosure of Bulley’s personal health issues with alcohol and perimenopause, fueling various theories on social media.
The autopsy report revealed that Bulley’s cause of death was drowning, and she was alive when she entered the water. No signs of injury or struggle were found, and there were no traces of alcohol or drugs impairing her faculties. The report concluded her death was accidental, with no intention of self-harm.
Entering cold water, such as the river, triggered a cold shock response, causing Bulley to gasp, inhale water, and drown within seconds. The report suggested she could have unintentionally or intentionally entered the water, but the effects of the cold shock response rendered her unable to swim or call for help.
The report conclusively addressed the question of suicide or murder, stating there was no supporting evidence for either conjecture, dismissing theories from social media. Contradicting claims by Bulley’s partner, Paul Ansell, the report revealed her struggles with depression and anxiety, previous suicide attempts, and ongoing mental health care.
Despite her struggles, Bulley was making efforts to overcome her issues, working as a mortgage adviser and making plans for the future. Emails and texts sent on the day of her disappearance indicated a normal mood with no intention of self-harm. Participating in a work conference call that day, Bulley’s phone was later found near the river.
The coroner concluded that Bulley’s death was accidental, emphasizing she did not have any desire to take her own life. He extended condolences to Bulley’s family and urged the public to respect their privacy and grief.
