Independent autopsy results for Nolan Wells coming soon, family says

The Wells family—backed by civil rights attorney Ben Crump—says an independent autopsy of 18-year-old Nolan Wells will reveal preliminary findings within hours, including whether he had injuries beyond drowning. The second autopsy, funded by Colin Kaepernick, follows a Mississippi medical examiner’s autopsy that has not yet determined a cause of death. Wells disappeared after a Fourth of July boat trip near Horn Island, and his body was recovered two days later; his funeral has already taken place as the family awaits more details.
