00:02No criminal charges in the death of Nolan Wells. He's the Mississippi teen who disappeared during
00:08a 4th of July trip with friends. A grand jury says it found no evidence that anyone committed
00:14a crime. The 18-year-old's body was found in the waters off Horn Island two days after he went
00:20missing. Authorities had previously said they believed the college football player drowned.
00:24Now, the 23-person grand jury says the location and condition of Wells' body, along with when
00:31and how it was found, were consistent with drowning. The panel also says it found, quote,
00:36no credible evidence to support public allegations that anyone engaged in criminal conduct connected
00:42to his death. Wells' family attorney Ben Crump says the grand jury's decision still doesn't answer how
00:49Wells died. He says, quote, the public still deserves a clear account supported by records,
00:55evidence, and independent scrutiny.
