Kids 'have to answer to' for leaving Nolan Wells behind, parents say
Key Points:
- Nolan Wells' father, Elmore Wonsley, condemned the friends who left the 18-year-old stranded on a Mississippi island during a Fourth of July boating trip, demanding they answer to the grieving family.
- The family suspects foul play and a lack of transparency in the investigation after Wells went missing and his body was found two days later on Horn Island.
- Friends claimed Wells chose to stay behind after a boat malfunction, but Wells' family disputes this narrative and points to a video showing Wells arguing with friends before his disappearance.
- The family found no Snapchat videos on Wells' recovered phone, which they find suspicious given his frequent use of the app.
- An official autopsy is pending, and an independent autopsy funded by former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick is being conducted in Washington, DC.
