Mystery girl identified in Nolan Wells disappearance; sister questions pals’ version
The Mississippi teen Nolan Wells, 18, disappeared after Fourth of July celebrations on Horn Island when his friends returned to the mainland after their boat had water trouble; Wells reportedly stayed behind to talk with Katie McCormack (19), who has been identified as the mystery girl, though her sister Gracie disputes the friends’ account. Wells’ body was found July 6. McCormack is not suspected of wrongdoing, but conflicting testimonies have raised questions, with Wells’ family and civil rights lawyer Ben Crump seeking clarity on the case.
