For all the repulsive trolls that seem to think they know better than everyone else what has happened despite not knowing Nicola, her partner, her family, her friends, or the area where she lives, from someone who does:
Her friend wrote:
Paul and Nikki both mostly work from home which is why he was at home that day. They have CCTV and there is a reason why Paul has never been a suspect. Family and friends need these accusations to stop immediately. The fact that I've had to write this is disgusting to be honest
They both do this walk regularly and Paul is very well known in the community and very well recognised
The dog never has her harness on for a chunk of that walk, it's removed at the gate of the top field and then put back on at the gate when they leave
They very rarely take the ball out for walks with willow now because she is very very protective over the ball and haven't done for a while
Nikki quite often would put her phone on loud speaker when talking
The dog was found very close to the bench and the harness. The harness was found on the floor not on the bench
Nikki is an incredibly strong swimmer
Nikki drove to the school and then left her car there and walked to the river
The dog was dry when found
The dog has since been back
There's CCTV at the back of the caravan park. The only camera that isn't working is the one that would have seen everything
