An inquest into the death of Nicola Bulley will be opened today (February 22).
The mum-of-two had been missing for more than three weeks when her body was found banks of the River Wyre close to Rawcliffe Road in St Michael's On Wyre on Sunday (February 19). Police were called to reports that two walkers had spotted a body, reported Lancs Live.
The discovery came more than three weeks after the 45-year-old mum-of-two was reported missing, on the morning of Friday January 27. She went missing after she had dropped off her daughters at the village primary school and took her springer spaniel Willow for a walk by the river.
