Nolan Wells death: Friend seeks legal help over rumors
Bart Edmiston Jr., a friend of Nolan Wells, is seeking legal action against online rumors linking him to Wells' death.
Attorney Russell Latino says Bart is not romantically connected to Katie McCormick and was unaware of her before Wells' passing.
Bart cooperated with investigators by providing access to his boat, GPS, and phone records.
Bart received a credible death threat due to fabricated speculation; the FBI and law enforcement have been informed.
Joseph Alfredo Vasquez Dumarce was arrested and charged with interstate transmission of a threatening communication related to the case.
