On July 4, 2026, 18-year-old Nolan Wells went missing during a boat trip to Horn Island, Mississippi with a group of friends, but was found dead two days later. Authorities suspect drowning, but the case remains under investigation amid unresolved questions about his final hours, including conflicting statements from his friends. The family, represented by attorney Ben Crump, has called for a thorough investigation and an independent autopsy.
