Nolan Wells' friends cleared by grand jury as their lawyers vow to hold online accusers accountable
Summary
A Mississippi grand jury issued a “no true bill” in the death of 19-year-old Nolan Wells, whose body was found on Horn Island on July 6 after he disappeared during a July 4 boating trip. The jury found the circumstances consistent with drowning and found no evidence of criminal conduct or racial motivation. Lawyers for Wells’ friends, who were targeted by online accusations, said they may pursue accountability against accusers and influencers. Attorney Ben Crump’s team disputes the conclusion, citing injuries and an undetermined cause of death.
