DA promises to present grand jury 'thorough' investigation into Nolan Wells' death

Jackson County District Attorney Angel Myers McIlrath has assured a thorough investigation into the death of 19-year-old Nolan Wells. She rejected public pressure to disclose information, stating it would breach legal bounds. The teenager disappeared after a Fourth of July boat trip on Horn Island, Mississippi. His body was found two days later.

Once the local authorities conclude their probe, the case files, including the autopsy report, will be submitted to a grand jury. The grand jury will decide if Wells' death was criminal. McIlrath emphasized her duty to present all evidence to the grand jury, maintaining the integrity of the investigation despite public demand for answers.
