I think they already leaked or announced the cause of death as drowning, but any additional info is still pending.


That's to be expected.

Question is how he ended up in the water.

Family of Nolan is going to have a press conference with Ben Crump and Al Sharpton tomorrow.

Looked up some of this shite on wife's tik Tok. Holy moly, there are some stupid sumbitches out there. And unfortunately, it is not contained to one particular color. Plenty of mud sharks parroting the same bullshite.

Its just wild to me that this a race thing in the first place. There are absolutely no indications that race played any part in Nolan dying. His black friend was also there, and he hasn't said one thing race-related regarding the events of July 4th on Horn Island. He also hasn't mentioned anything about some kind of altercation that might have taken place, or that he thought that foul play occurred.

This friend also didn't act like there was anything abnormal about the fact that Wells chose to stay behind when the friends in question left. Yet, people are acting like he was abandoned by his friends he was with in the picture when there were multiple boats filled with people who all knew each other. I've been in so many situations where I did not leave a party with the people I came with. It happens all the time with young adults, and its not a big deal, at all.

As soon as it was realized that he was missing, a huge search was immediately mobilized, mainly by white people.

People are making a big deal about the phone thing, but I can't tell you how many times I have departed from my phone when I'm on the water and didn't touch it for several hours, and even forgot where I put it. You can tell most of these idiots blowing this aspect out of proportion have never spent any considerable amount of time on the water.

Yet, this is being framed as some kind of potential Emmett Till situation. Its absolute madness if you ask me.

what I find interesting is that he was not found the first day. To me, this signals that he was likely pulled away to deeper water by a rip current, then floated back to the shore some time Sunday night or Monday morning.

Black people and their saviors will make anything a race issue and ignore any evidence to the contrary. Just look at Karmelo Anthony for an example.

There could be video of Nolan falling off a dock, unable to swim, and drowning and smooth brains would still be blaming his white freinds.

If I told my friends I wanted to stay behind and they could leave? I don’t expect them to stay and babysit me. Especially if I am an adult.


Never realized I was a victim of racism all those times I got drunk in college and Irish goodbyed my friends I went with to the bar or party.

But while out partying, drinking, etc. Would I leave a buddy behind just because I saw him talking with some chicks and assume he will find his way back somehow? Absolutely not.



Poeple acting like this must never have gone to college. Much less partied in college.

I think it's the fact that this comes on the heels of the Karmelo thing. They got all jazzed up then had the rug pulled out from under them so this is a convenient segue to keep the anger & frustration flowing.

My Facebook is getting covered up with supposed news articles about this drowning at the rate of 6-7 items per hour. A lot of manipulation going on.

The mother is on Facebook pimping her GoFundMe and posting #JusticeForNolanWells. Mama looking for a Karmelo-style payday.

This is the first year i have not gone to Horn in years for the 4th. There have been 3 different times i have rode a different boat back. People gather in huge groups and this is pretty common.

I live 5 hrs away from OS and our crew is huge. If he grew up there im pretty sure he knew at least 30 ppl there at any given time.

Saw a video today of some woman claiming she's certain it was a klan initiation ritual.


I don’t know what happened to this kid, but I can guarantee it wasn’t that. How the narrative of the KKK still operating in the south like it was 1966 is mind boggling to me.
