Why Nolan Wells' Medical Examiner Still Has Her Job

Nolan Wells' autopsy results are sealed, and the woman who performed it has done this before. Dr. Staci Turner, Mississippi's chief medical examiner, ruled a 2021 in-custody death "undetermined" even though her own report documented neck injuries consistent with compression. Three independent forensic pathologists — including Dr. Michael Baden, former chief medical examiner of New York City — reviewed the same evidence and called it a homicide outright. A grand jury used Turner's ruling to decline charges against the deputies who restrained Damien Cameron. One of them, Hunter Elward, is now serving time in federal prison for the Rankin County "Goon Squad" torture cases — just not for Cameron's death. Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer walks through what that history means now that Turner holds the results of Nolan Wells' autopsy. The district attorney controls when, or whether, those results get unsealed, and there's no deadline forcing the issue. Coffindaffer also examines what it says that Nolan's mother, Christine Wells-Wonsley, filed subpoenas the same day she buried her son. That's not the move of a family that trusts the process. Attorney Ben Crump represented Damien Cameron's family. He represents Nolan Wells' family now. Same state, same examiner, same attorney circling back to a system that already failed one family in a documented way. Nolan died near Horn Island, and in the time since, the pace of this investigation has tested whatever trust his family had left. None of this proves what happened to Nolan Wells. It proves the office responsible for telling us has a credibility problem it never fixed — and this family already knows it. Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
