What Nolan Wells' Autopsy Could Never Check
from True Crime Today | Daily True Crime News & Interviews · host Real Story Media
Nolan Wells — two separate autopsies have been performed on this eighteen-year-old's body and neither can provide a cause of death. The independent examination came back undetermined. The state examination has not been released. And one critical part of the body — the neck structures — was retained by Mississippi's medical examiner, so the family's pathologist could never examine it for evidence of strangulation.Three hundred people were on Horn Island. Not one has described seeing a crime. Sixty witnesses have spoken to law enforcement. The three friends present cooperated and gave statements matching dispatch audio from the Coast Guard. A forensic examination found discoloration on the back of Nolan's head but no fractures or lacerations underneath. State toxicology is still pending.Eric Faddis, a defense attorney and former prosecutor, breaks down whether undetermined helps the family or just keeps the door open indefinitely — and what happens when a DA presents "we don't know how he died" to a Mississippi grand jury.Links:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
