The police officer heading up the search for missing mum Nicola Bulley has been criticised for her appearance by a female journalist. But officers have leaped to the defence of Detective Superintendent Rebecca Smith.
Daily Mail columnist Amanda Platell took to Twitter saying that Det Supt Smith looked like she was “auditioning for Love Island” at a critical press conference this week. In a tweet, Platell said: “Detective Superintendent Rebecca Smith at press conference yesterday - skin tight navy dress, stilettos, poker straightened hair - whatever happened to a cop uniform!
"Or is she auditioning for Love Island for midlifers. Show some respect for a missing mother!”
