TL;DR

A Jackson County grand jury unanimously returned a no true bill in the Nolan Wells death investigation, meaning no charges will be filed. The panel reviewed extensive evidence and found no credible proof of criminal conduct or racial motivation. Wells died July 4 on Horn Island, with investigators noting he stayed behind as others left and citing a bilge pump issue on the Triton; autopsies listed 'undetermined' cause with drowning as a diagnosis. Authorities said the case could be reopened if credible new evidence emerges.
