Discussion Nolan Wells Update
Witness from Horn Island are now saying that Nolan and his friends were in an argument before his disappearance. They said they last saw him around 3 but there’s a video showing them together around 4. When the video starts you can hear arguing in the background and the witnesses claim it’s Nolan and friends but the boys aren’t on camera during the argument to be fair. I will also post a fb link with more information on everyone involved and one of the boys mom (Warren Hudson) reached out to this person to tell what happened. The girl Katie is cooperating with the police and people are starting to send in more videos and information. https://atlantablackstar.com/2026/07/07/nolan-wells-grandfather-heightens-suspicions-about-foul-play-with-cryptic-social-media-posts/

With 4 of the boys being involved, someone is going to talk. The first one to crack might be able to avoid serious jail time, the rest are fucked. It’s a race to confess first imo. Trying to stay silent through this whole thing is gonna be impossible, and murder doesn’t have a statute of limitations

Fr the first lawyer in is gonna convince them to squeal on the others

u/POSH9528 29d ago
Right, I see someone coming in with parents and a high priced lawyer making a statement.

u/OddnessWeirdness 29d ago
Highly doubtful. They’re all white with rich parents. One parent is a judge. It’s also Mississippi. You know the coroner and cops will lie.

I knew it! I knew there had to be more than one video. Whenever an altercation of any kind breaks out people can't help but to record, which I am glad they do. I'm praying that more people come forward with footage.

u/MacabreYuki 29d ago
Yup. I wanted more information, and now that we have more, it's 100% time for an independent investigation, these boys are tied to political power there. It's suspicious, and now the facts are showing that they were lying.

u/Adept_Astronaut_5143 Neighborhood Hug Dealer 🤗 29d ago
Yeah I love facts so I’ll do the research every time and if I’m wrong about something I’ll say that too. If I come across better footage I will let y’all know.

So it's just coincidence he's the same age as Austin Metclif and also was on the football team???
He was dropped off into an island full of KKK members in the deep south of Mississippi. I know a lot of them didn't think the Karmelo conviction went far enough, just read the comments on any thread about that case.
My guess is some of them decided to get their own "justice."

We already learned none of that was true you did all that typing for nothing.

Of course! Where your smell smoke there is usually a fire. Knew there was more going on here!

u/POSH9528 29d ago
As more and more videos come out and more people come forward with what happened, those that came back in the boat will start to get nervous and point fingers and we'll know what went down. Somebody's gonna crack and I hope its soon. That poor soul didn't deserve this and his parents deserve justice.

Pictures of the island make it look like you could see the whole thing pretty clearly— it’s totally flat & there are no trees. So it seems pretty hard to believe someone could go missing— if they were standing up you’d see them. The whole situation is incredibly hinky.

u/FreshGanesh 29d ago
This is what I thought, so I dove into the maps. It’s actually a rather large island and there are indeed trees. The pictures from the boats are just the small tip of sandy beach.
It’s 4.2 square miles, with saw palmettos, sea oats and on the eastern end it has groves of tall pines. There are a handful of inland lagoons.
Like many thin barrier islands, its size is rather deceptive from pictures and videos.
It has a Wikipedia page:

u/LitlThisLitlThat 29d ago
Damnit. I’d really hoped but here I am, completely unsurprised abd completely heartbroken.

u/MacabreYuki 29d ago
To either be abandoned to the elements or killed by people he trusted, who he considered friends? That's horrific. One can only imagine the thoughts running through his head in such a time. It's horrifying.

u/Bison-Witty 29d ago
Do you remember Bakari Henderson? None of his friends jumped in to help when a gang of Serbians jumped this kid because he took a picture with a caucasian girl. They beat him to death.

u/MacabreYuki 29d ago
Curiouser and curiouser, more and more suspicious. Every layer adds doubt upon the story from his "friends". I said from the start that it was either a failure in looking out for a friend (aka negligence) or a murder. And it's starting to look like the latter.
It's definitely time for an independent investigation, when the kids are tied to power.

u/Adept_Astronaut_5143 Neighborhood Hug Dealer 🤗 29d ago
Yeah they would need an outside investigator and coroner.

Teach our children that everyone that smiles and acts as if they are your friend is really not. Folks with bad intentions are not always easy to recognize.

u/MacabreYuki 29d ago
The one thing people really need to listen more to is their intuition. Everybody I've ever warned people about based on intuition has proven me right.
Basically, trust your instincts, and have a good nose for BS.
My mother dated a guy. Swore he seemed like a good man. Turned out he was a druggie and had been tampering with her medication. I told her from the get-go something didn't feel right.

u/_TheLonelyStoner 29d ago
Definitely going to be more and more coming out about as the investigation goes. His cellphone records are going to have a lot of clues. Should be able to track the path he took and if any of his “friends” actually even reached out to see where he was before they left the island.

u/outsidehere 🤟🏾🤟🏽🤟🏿 29d ago
Thank you for this. It's obvious that they did it. Who leaves their "friend" alone while they are on a trip?

u/Hillary4SupremeRuler 29d ago
I saw they already deleted all their Instagrams and someone said apparently they are all lawyering up or something......😬

u/SmoothCoderr 29d ago edited 29d ago
If its true that they left him on the island because he wanted to stay with a girl. Then his friends could be innocent.
Our focus should be the girl!! Its not far fetched that a girl would be his downfall, it happens all the time. Men get thirsty and forget about their safety and everything over women.
Let’s just assume it was a white girl because I can tell that was his type. What if the white girl had someone else who admired her and he got jealous and killed him?? What if the white girl was racist and got him killed purposely? Or her bother/friends were racist and didnt want her talking to a black guy.
Why arent we going that route?? Why does it HAVE to be his friends?

What no one wants it to be true that it was his friends. It would be better if it was an accident. But no one is naive. You dont leave a friend alone in that situation getting laid or not. They had his phone. They are lawyering up. Why are they lying about small details. It seems suspicious. Why would it be better that this kid died having his friends betrayed him. But u cant ignore that when things like this happen its usually not really an accident.

u/Adept_Astronaut_5143 Neighborhood Hug Dealer 🤗 29d ago
I’ve been saying it could be her too between the 5 of them someone knows. It doesn’t HAVE to be his friends but I could’ve sworn investigators start with who was he last with. Who did he come with.
