United Cajun Navy said they've never spoken to Nolan Wells' family attorney Ben Crump
Key Points:
- The United Cajun Navy denied ever speaking with attorney Ben Crump or providing him information about Nolan Wells' condition when found, contradicting Crump's claim that the teen was "fully clothed."
- Crump had suggested the state of Wells' dress could be key to understanding his death, noting a video before Wells' disappearance showed him only in swim trunks, raising questions about when he might have put on a shirt.
- The Cajun Navy clarified that Wells was found wearing only swim trunks, calling Crump's statement a "lie" and a distraction from a previous miscommunication by their founder on a TV show.
- Wells, an 18-year-old Mississippi college football player, was found deceased on July 6 after going missing following a Fourth of July boat outing, with the Cajun Navy assisting in locating his body.
- Crump did not respond to requests for comment regarding the dispute before publication.
