Summary
This week, we’re going to look into the case of Nolan Wells, an 18-year-old Black college athlete whose body was recovered from the waters near Horn Island days after he vanished on July 4. Was his death an accident? A racially motivated crime? There are several theories, and Scoot out of Audacy station WWL in New Orleans covered them extensively this week. We’ll also hear about another deadly incident involving ICE agents, this time in Houston, Texas. To end the show, we have discussions of laws that impact violent criminals and national crime statistics. Featuring audio from WCCO News and Talk in the Twin Cities, KYW Newsradio in Philadelphia, KRLD 1080 in Dallas, the Dana & Parks Show out of KMBZ in Kansas City, Scoot and Tommy Tucker out of WWL in New Orleans.
