Here’s my take on it.
Someone has been walking the missing person’s dog by the river. Witnesses, who saw the person from a distance, say was her because she did it regularly. The human mind is conditioned to accept it must have been her. It also means that witnesses were certain it was a woman.
She entered a Teams call for roughly half an hour but didn’t activate her phone camera or microphone. Or, at least someone with password access to her phone did.
The family business is in a spot of financial difficulty.
All the internet detectives are losing their minds because the police are being deliberately ambiguous in their statements. There’s a very good reason why the police do this and it to do with lulling persons involved into a false sense of security.
I can guarantee the focus away from the public and media is firmly on the friends and family.
The one thing that blows a lot of that out of the water is that the missing person was the one dropping the kids off shortly beforehand although the cctv images are not 100% convincing from what I’ve seen but presumably the kids have confirmed it.
‘Tis a mystery indeed
