Cajun Navy clarifies Nolan Wells discovery details

The United Cajun Navy held a press conference to correct reports about Nolan Wells’ death, stating the 18-year-old was found on Horn Island wearing only blue swim trunks (not fully clothed as some interviews suggested). An independent autopsy listed the manner and cause of death as undetermined and police have not ruled out drowning, though no foul play is suspected; Crump’s team had earlier cited different statements, and the Cajun Navy emphasized that facts matter and that Wells’s family deserves the truth. Wells disappeared on July 4 and was found July 6.
