Nolan Wells Autopsy Reveals No Clear Cause | Hattiesburg News

An 18-year-old Black man, Nolan Wells, vanished during a Fourth of July boat trip to Horn Island and was found dead two days later. An independent autopsy, funded by Colin Kaepernick and conducted by a forensic pathologist, found no broken bones or bruises but noted strange red discoloration on his head—without a clear cause—and couldn’t rule out foul play. The state’s autopsy remains unreleased, and decomposition complicated the investigation. His family, represented by Ben Crump, demands transparency amid concerns over racial dynamics and the circumstances of his death. A $125,000 reward is now offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction, as public outcry grows for answers.
