Nolan Wells' Family Shocks Court, Ben Crump Exposes Phone Evidence

**The family of Nolan Wells is set to disclose new digital‑forensic evidence from the victim’s cellphone, a move that could shed light on the circumstances of his death.** Attorney Ben Crump and forensic examiner Andrew Garrett will present their findings during a live stream hosted by.

The announcement comes after a Mississippi grand jury decided not to pursue criminal charges, .

Crump’s team claims the investigation will remain open until officials explain how the injuries discovered in an independent autopsy—blunt‑force trauma to the back of Wells’ head and additional back wounds—relate to his death. The family has also urged federal investigators to re‑examine the case, a request that has yet to be acted upon.

## Background & Context

Family members hired Andrew Garrett as a forensic examiner after officials allegedly moved Nolan Wells’ cellphone to a government lab and restricted law‑enforcement access. Garrett says the family was shut out of the state's examination of the device. In response, the family assembled its own team to image the phone at home.

The resulting reports were then handed over to prosecutors before the grand jury reviewed the case.

The forensic review recovered more than 1 million digital artifacts, including Snapchat and Instagram data, GPS information, Apple Health records, phone logs, and evidence of deleted or unsent messages.

These findings follow an independent autopsy commissioned by Wells’ family, which identified blunt‑force trauma to the back of his head and additional injuries to his back.

The grand jury declined to pursue criminal charges, stating that Wells’ body was found in a position consistent with drowning. This decision has left many questions about the cause of the injuries unanswered.

## What Happens Next

During the live stream, Crump and Garrett will discuss their examination of the cellphone and what the digital evidence could reveal about the circumstances surrounding Wells’ death. Crump says the investigation should remain open until officials answer how Nolan suffered the injuries and whether they contributed to his death.

The family is calling for federal investigators to take a fresh look at the case, a request that has yet to be acted upon. They hope that additional scrutiny could clarify whether the injuries were accidental or intentional, and whether any foul play was involved.

The live‑stream event marks a significant development in an ongoing inquiry, offering new data that may help determine the true cause of Nolan Wells’ untimely death.
