Attorney Ben Crump is demanding a full and impartial investigation into the death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells, arguing that key details surrounding the case “are not adding up.” Crump pointed to conflicting accounts about whether Wells planned to remain on the island or return to a boat with friends. He also questioned why the teenager would allegedly stay behind without his phone, citing video in which Wells reportedly demanded its return. Crump urged investigators not to take the “path of least resistance” by simply concluding the death was an accidental drowning without thoroughly examining the contradictions and available evidence.

00:00Try to say, oh, we're suggesting it was just an accidental drowning, go ahead and move on.
00:06Well, they are not accepting it.
00:09They are not accepting it.
00:11They want to know that you have not taken the path of least resistance,
00:19that you have done a full, complete, thorough, impartial investigation
00:28because it cannot be lost on anybody, but especially us in the black community.
00:39If the roles were reversed and you had three young black men on a boat with a young white man
00:50and that young white man ended up dead,
00:55what kind of investigation would be being conducted by the Mississippi law enforcement officials?
01:03How many times would those three young black men be interrogated?
01:09So all we're asking is the same consideration you would have given if the roles were reversed.
01:18Give that consideration to this family as well.
01:23That is our fight.
01:25The glaring contradictions just jump out at you.
01:29The fact that he is there with his friends, and you look at all the videos,
01:38because it seems to be he's the only black on the island, or maybe one other, but not many.
01:47And so, Jared, you have where a young woman he was talking to says that,
01:56well, Nolan said he was going back to get on the boat with the boys.
02:05The boys say that Nolan told them he was going to stay and talk to the young woman.
02:17It's a contradiction.
02:19They're not saying the same thing.
02:23One of them is telling the truth.
02:26One of them is not.
02:28We have to get to the bottom of that.
02:30It's important.
02:32And then the fact, Reverend Al, that they have this video of an argument that is going on.
02:43And, you know, thank God all young people, they have cell phones,
02:48and any time you hear people raising their voice, they start the video.
02:52And so, you hear on the video, Nolan saying, give me my freaking phone.
02:59What are you freaking doing?
03:02And that becomes even more relevant when you think about the story that they are presenting,
03:11that Nolan chose to stay behind.
03:15That's what they're saying.
03:18But his phone, he wouldn't take that with him if he's going to stay behind on an island?
03:25I mean, we're talking about an 18-year-old kid.
03:29What teenager would leave their phone behind if they're going to stay on this island?
03:37What teenager wouldn't take their phone?
03:40And so it's not adding up.
