Nolan Wells Disappears on Fourth of July | Seattle News

A young man vanished after a Fourth of July boat trip to Horn Island, leaving his grieving family and investigators searching for answers. Though his friends returned from the outing, Nolan Wells stayed behind to socialize — and was never seen again. GPS data revealed his boat left the island later that day, but his body was found off Northwest Horn Island just days later. Authorities, including the FBI, are probing whether foul play was involved, while his family has hired civil rights attorney Ben Crump to lead an independent investigation and autopsy. The official cause of death remains pending toxicology results, with prosecutors preparing to present evidence to a grand jury.
