They’ve recovered his phone and are working with prosecutors to analyze its data, raising questions about why his friends allegedly took his keys and phone while leaving him behind — especially since he was a strong swimmer. With an autopsy pending and a grand jury sought for impartial review, the case has gained national attention, amplified by the lived experiences of Black Americans who distrust official narratives. The Congressional Black Caucus has joined the call for an independent probe. Notable figures like Tyler Perry and Colin Kaepernick are supporting the family — funding the funeral and an independent autopsy — as Nolan’s mother prepares to honor his vibrant life in a celebration of his legacy.
