Det här fallet utspelade sig i den lilla byn St. Michael's on Wyre i Lancashire, Storbritannien. Den 27 januari 2023, efter att ha lämnat sina döttrar på förskolan, gick en 45-årig mamma ut på en morgonpromenad med sin hund längs floden Wyre, något som hon gjorde ofta. Under promenaden deltog hon i ett jobbmöte via Teams. Vid ungefär kl. 09:33 hittades kvinnans telefon övergiven på en bänk vid flodkanten, fortfarande uppkopplad till Teamsmötet. Hennes hund, var också där, men kvinnan var borta, vilket väckte en stor oro bland hennes anhöriga. Men den 19 februari, nästan tre veckor efter hennes försvinnande, hittade man kvinnans kropp och omständigheterna kring hennes död fortsatte att diskuteras. Vad var det som hände? Var det en olyckshändelse eller låg där något brott bakom kvinnans död? Detta är fallet Nicola Bulley.----------Ljudklipp kommer från:Youtubekanalerna: Crime Scene 2 Courtroom, Profiling with Pat Brown, Psychic Medium Roberto, The Telegraph & Daily Mail.----------Vill ni skicka dricks/en slant och bjussa på några koppar kaffe så kan göra det här: https://buymeacoffee.com/crimepodden
Yanni started building in crypto back in 2013, when you could buy one Bitcoin for $20. At one point, he was playing poker games and betting 1 bitcoin each round!He built an extension that let people use bitcoin to buy anything, anywhere on the internet. Then he pivoted to building the first on ramp for bitcoin. And finally, pivoted into Wyre, which was like Stripe for Crypto, a platform to let developers build Web3 apps.In a couple of years he scaled it from nothing to a $90M run rate. In late 2021, he started working on an exit with Bolt. By mid 2022 the deal was signed. The company was to be sold for $1.5B.Yanni would make hundreds of millions of dollars himself.And then, at the absolute last minute, the world changed. Stocks fell, crypto plummeted— and the deal fell apart.Startups are often one call, one customer or, in this case, one day away from complete success—or total failure. That's the game you're playing.

What happens, inside slow forest, is not much. Just the odd snap and crack, of a dry twig dropping, every now and then. I know sometimes there is a rook. And I know a raven too, if you've managed not to fall asleep. And echoes. Of passing people on the trail. And of seagulls and roosting wood pigeons too. Every now and then. No, not much happens, in slow forest. Apart from the wind in the trees. And the buzzing insects. And the distant farm. And the plaintive cries of what we might imagine is a lonely juvenile bird. But slow forest, is the place to go, if you want to hear a forest just being a forest. It's so huge. And so empty (not counting the trees) that most of what you hear is just, forest. Trees being trees. Leaves being leaves, in the changing wind. And the changing wind, just being a changing wind. * We captured this hour of forest time by leaving the Lento mics alone on an old tree last month deep in the Wyre Forest in Worcestershire. Two planes doing a loop-the-loop can be heard steeply descending around the middle section of the recording, and the echoing whistles of a passing steam train as it travels along the Severn Valley Railway can be heard towards the end.

On January 27, 2023, Nicola Bulley would drop her children off at school and then take her dog for a walk at Saint Michael's on Wyre.

Body found in a river has been identified as missing mother-of-two Nicola Bulley, police have said. The body was found on Sunday morning in the River Wyre in Lancashire, around a mile from where the 45-year-old mortgage adviser was last seen. She had been walking her dog in St Michael's on Wyre after dropping her daughters, aged six and nine, at school on January 27.
We discuss the statement released by Nicola Bulley's family following the sad news that that the body found in river Wyre had been formally identified as Nicola Bulley who had been missing for over 3 weeks. They expressed their pain on how their loved ones were treated throughout this ordeal. They called for accountability, and for another family not to go through what they had gone through. Joining Nuala is Zoe Billingham, former head of the inspectorate of Constabulary, Ellen Milazzo from Victim Support and Baroness Helen Newlove, former victim's commissioner for England and Wales. Up to 9 in 10 first-time mothers who have a vaginal birth will have some sort of tear. So, it's no wonder that tearing is a big worry for expectant mums. Marie Louise, also known as The Modern Midwife, explains to Nuala why tears happen, and what to really expect. Plus, midwife turned inventor, Malene Hegenberger, explains how she created a retractor to help her see tears better when suturing. Why are women from diverse background much less likely to be able to swim than white women? And what can be done about it? Team GB's first black female swimmer Alice Dearing helped to found the Black Swimming Association along with journalist Seren Jones – they join Nuala to discuss. As London Fashion Week draws to a close today, the Times fashion director, 51-year-old Anna Murphy, reflects on feeling like the only woman of her age in the front row who has not had work done on her face. What she calls the normalisation of ‘tweakments' is one of the topics explored in her new book Destination Fabulous. She tells Nuala about the changing trends in tweakments, why she finds the term problematic and how to embrace ageing naturally Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Lucinda Montefiore
A body found in a Lancashire river on Sunday was that of missing mother-of-two Nicola Bulley, police have said, before reading a family statement which criticised media intrusion. Adam speaks to the BBC's Judith Moritz, who is in St Michael's on Wyre, as well as a former detective superintendent - Julie Mackay. And we discuss the heavily criticised changes to Roald Dahl's books with culture editor Katy Razzall and children's author Philip Ardagh. Today's episode was presented by Adam Fleming and was made by Tim Walklate with Cordelia Hemming, Pearse Lynch and Chris Flynn. The technical producer was Emma Crowe. The senior news editor was Damon Rose.
British woman, Nicola Bulley has not been seen since the 27th of January, when she disappeared while walking her dog in St Michael's on Wyre, Lancashire. What happened to her? The Bel Tel's Ciarán Dunbar is joined but the editor of the Lancashire Post & Blackpool Gazette, Nicola Adam, to find out more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Friday, January 27th, Nicola Bulley dropped her two children to primary school in a Lancashire village. She walked around the corner to a popular local riverbank where she was in the habit of walking her dog, Willow, after school drop off. And then she disappeared. While the official police search continues, there is a parallel – unofficial - investigation. The puzzling disappearance has prompted a troubling surge in amateur detectives getting involved – online and on the ground. Irish Times London correspondent Mark Paul visited St Michael's on Wyre, the village where Ms Bulley disappeared – and tells Bernice Harrison that the impact of the amateur sleuths is clear to see. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Police investigating the disappearance of Nicola Bulley have issued a dispersal order around St Michael's on Wyre after reports of amateur investigators travelling to the Lancashire village. Her family has said the influx of people trying to help the investigation is hindering police efforts. On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson is joined by Sky correspondent Katerina Vittozzi who has spoken to armchair sleuths who've descended on the village. Niall also talks to Martyn Underhill, one of the detectives involved in the search for schoolgirl Sarah Payne in 2000 about how police manage the public desire to help in high-profile cases. Plus, criminal psychologist Amanda Vicary on why some people want to become amateur detectives.

Better known in his disc jockey days in Baltimore and beyond as "Paul Rodgers" or "The Emperor Rodgers," Paul Rothfuss's career in broadcasting spans seven decades. Like his long-time friend and business partner Kerby Confer (episode #82), Paul eventually gravitated to the sales side of radio before he and Kerby combined their talents and business acumen and started buying radio stations. In this endeavor they became wildly successful. Two books by Paul, "Alias Emperor Rodgers: A Majestic Memoir by Baltimore's Emperor of Insanity in the Crazy Daze of '60s To 40 Radio" and "Wiggles, Winks, & Wizards: Paul and Kerby's Great Adventure," chronicle his formative years in Williamsport, Pa., his long-time friendship and partnership (based on a handshake) with Kerby, and his life-long love affair with radio. Think of this conversation with Paul as a companion to episode #82 featuring Kerby Confer. Kerby and Paul both take us back to the heyday of 1960's Top 40 AM radio, when WCAO became the constant on-air companion to thousands of Baby Boomers in the Baltimore area. In this episode, Paul also gives us a master class on the sales techniques that he and Kerby learned, honed, and employed as they evolved into titans of broadcasting. As a bonus, please visit our website https://themainstreetpodcast.com/to hear an aircheck from 1974 featuring Paul on his final day on air at WYRE, in Annapolis. Two other clips we've put on our site feature the inimitable Howard Cosell appraising Paul's on-air talents at the behest of newscaster Dave Humphrey. Both clips are from 1972 and were Humphrey's way of exacting revenge on Paul after years of good-natured abuse on Baltimore's WCBM.Paul's websitehttp://emperorrodgers.com/ Paul's books are also available on Amazonhttps://www.amazon.com/Alias-Emperor-Rodgers-Majestic-Baltimores-ebook/dp/B07CMFJNRShttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B089RVP6J3/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0The Mainstreet Podcast is sponsored by Your Pet AuPair!
