Nolan Wells phone to undergo mutual inspection
Nolan Wells' cellphone will undergo a joint 'mutual inspection' by Jackson County investigators and independent experts after the family raised concerns about deleted content.
Wells' family met with Jackson County District Attorney Angel McIlrath on Wednesday, but received no new information about how he died.
The case will be presented to a grand jury after investigators complete their work, per civil rights attorney Ben Crump.
Wells, 18, died after a boat trip to Horn Island; his body was found two days later, and police have said nothing yet points to foul play.
Christine Wonsley, Wells' mother, recovered his phone via the Life360 app and raised concerns about deleted Snapchat content.
