Death of Black Teen Nolan Wells to Go to Mississippi Grand Jury
Ben Crump is independently reviewing the death after a circulated photo raised questions about race and investigators await a grand jury review.
- Civil rights attorney Ben Crump is independently investigating the death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells, while the Mississippi state autopsy remains sealed pending grand jury review.
- Wells disappeared during crowded Fourth of July celebrations on Horn Island, about 10 miles off the Mississippi Coast, with a search crew finding his body in the water two days later.
- Crump revealed an area of "red discoloration" on Wells' head during Wednesday's news conference, though officials reported no signs of foul play. NFL Hall of Famer Terrell Owens increased the reward for information to $125,000.
- District Attorney Angel Myers McIlrath defended the autopsy's confidentiality, stating the delay "is not an effort to keep the truth from the public" but protects the investigation's integrity.
- The death has divided the community in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, with supporters raising questions about whether race played a factor while authorities urge public patience as the investigation continues.
