The self-proclaimed medium who found Nicola Bulley 's body has claimed he helped find a missing teen.

Jason Dean Rothwell and a friend were the members of the public who found the body on Sunday, which was later confirmed to belong to the mortgage adviser.

The body was seen just a mile from where her phone was found on a bench in the close-knit village of St Michael's in Wyre, Lancashire.

Jason said he wasn't asked by the police or Nicola's family to help but that it was his "gift" that compelled him to try and help.

In a statement, he also added that he had previously helped with the recovery of Michael Brooks - a 19-year-old who was found in a river in Lancashire after a three-week search in February 2018.

The Preston College student was last seen on January 13, 2018, by a friend after they went into a local park on hallucinogenic drugs to look at the stars, the inquest heard.

Michael's body was found on February 6 after a massive search was launched by family, friends and authorities.

In a statement, his mum Joanne described Michael as "happy-go-lucky" and someone who "often stood out from the crowd".

The statement, which was published in the blogpreston.co.uk, read: "I know nothing that happens today (at the inquest) will change the outcome.

“I’m not a crazy mum looking for justice. I am a heartbroken mum looking for answers.

“Michael was happy-go-lucky, a little vulnerable. He had so much energy and often stood out from the crowd.

“His friends brought out the best in my amazing son. He had so much to live for.”

A man and a woman had said they heard splashing but when they looked in the water they couldn't see anything, it was reported.

Bizarrely, a man, who was referred to as 'Y' in court, confessed to killing him but investigations revealed he was in a care home at the time Michael died.

Area Coroner James Newman recorded an open verdict, stating: “There are two very polar opposite accounts of how Michael has gone into the river.

“With all the best will in the world, I don’t think we are ever going to get all the answers.”

A post-mortem into his death revealed he had drowned but did not find any other signs of injury.

Jason's statement in full

It is with great regret that I have to address this issue at this time. But due to a wide number of private enquires and threads now circulating on YouTube and TikTok, I feel I should put a brief statement.

As has obviously become apparent, yes it is myself in the images in the media currently circulating relating to the case of Nicola Bulley and yes yesterday morning it was myself and a friend who reported and assisted the police in the recovery of a body from the river Wyre.

Such as it is it would be inappropriate of me to discuss in any further detail anything we may know about that body at this time, considering a formal identification of that body has yet to be confirmed.

I would also like to just say a huge thank you to Lancashire police for their help, support and the open-mindedness with which they dealt with us, following our call, spiritualists or mediums are obviously not something the police come across every day and I appreciate the respect given to us both.

It is also important to mention, I was not asked by the police or Nicola’s family to become involved in this case, but having seen the wild speculation and hurtful commentary that has been ongoing, and having previously assisted in the recovery of Michael Brooks, I decided to use whatever “gift” it is we mediums possess to try and locate Nicola Bulley. I Would, however, stress again, I can not confirm that the body we traced yesterday is that of the lady in question.

My thoughts and prayers are with her family, friend and loved ones at this time and I do hope, that if it is indeed Nicola, they can find some peace with this. If it is not, I would send my prayers to the family of whomsoever it may be.

I would add as a final note, I will not be giving any further information or commentary at this time regarding the work involved in finding this person nor is it my place to engage in any discussion on how that body came to originally be in the water.
