#TSRUpdatez: The family of 18-year-old #NolanWells is calling for his autopsy to be made public and wants the Justice Department to investigate his death, saying they still have unanswered questions.
_____________________________________
Wells disappeared during a July 4 boating trip with friends on Mississippi’s Horn Island and was found deceased two days later. A grand jury recently determined his death was consistent with drowning and found no evidence of wrongdoing.

However, family attorney #BenCrump says an independent autopsy documented unexplained recent blunt-force injuries to the back of Wells’ head and back. Crump said a Mississippi pathologist also identified two bruises on the back of the teen’s head, but the family says they still haven’t received an explanation for the injuries.

“We don’t know how Nolan died, and neither does the State of Mississippi,” Crump said, calling for the state to continue investigating or for the Justice Department to step in.

Jackson County District Attorney Angel Myers McIlrath has pushed back on suggestions that race played a role, saying there is no evidence Wells’ disappearance or death was racially motivated.

The grand jury reportedly issued 132 subpoenas and heard from 43 witnesses and seven experts before reaching its conclusion. (📸: gettyimages) ✍🏾: #TSRStaffLG
