This is a heartbreaking moment the 6-year-old daughter of the missing mother-of-two, Nicola Bulley, spotted search teams looking for her mom as CCTV photos emerge of her leaving their family home for a school run.
A short clip shared by concerned friends showed 6-year-old Sophia pointing toward search teams and saying: “Them helicopters, they’re looking for mommy.”
This comes as friends said Nicola’s children joined a school disco on Friday evening as part of efforts among parents and guardians to ‘keep things as normal as possible’ for the kids.
Speaking to Sky News, Jill Peck – who attended a vigil to light candles at St. Michael’s Church – said: “If something was in the diary, it’s been kept in the diary. They are aware that something is happening but we’re trying to keep it away from the school.
“They just desperately want her home and that is all they are asking all the time is ‘where is she and is she coming home?’”
More divers assisted in the extensive search for Nicola after police initially turned down further assistance despite the heartbroken family’s pleas.
Peter Faulding, the founder of Specialist Group International and a world-renowned forensics expert, previously said Lancashire Police had refused his offer of equipment and specialist divers to assist in the search.
But in another statement, he confirmed that his team joined police in the search for Nicola.
“I have just had a long call with the Lancashire Police search adviser to discuss the search for Nicola. We will work closely with the police search teams who are working long hours to find Nicola,” he said.
“The team are leaving shortly from our base in Dorking on route to Lancashire to start tomorrow morning.”
Mr. Faulding told Sky News that he will bring ‘high spec’ sonar equipment that has a ‘very high hit rate’ in search operations.
“We’re assisting with our dive team. We carry out all the underwater operations in the south east for the police anyway, but we’re bringing a particularly high-spec piece of equipment, 1,800-kilohertz specialist side-scan sonar,” he said.
