WEBVTT - NOLAN WELLS BOMBSHELL RPT: REVEALS NEW WITNESSES, TIMELINE "SHIFT?"

0:00:00.880 --> 0:00:02.559
<v Speaker 1>Crime Stories with Nancy Grace.

0:00:07.080 --> 0:00:13.960
<v Speaker 2>A Nolan Wells bombshell report tonight? Does it reveal new witnesses?

0:00:14.160 --> 0:00:20.200
<v Speaker 2>And because of the new timeline report, is there a

0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:26.520
<v Speaker 2>timeline shift in what happened? The afternoon and evening Nolan

0:00:26.760 --> 0:00:34.239
<v Speaker 2>Wells seemingly disappears, his body found washed up at Horn Island.

0:00:34.400 --> 0:00:37.199
<v Speaker 2>Good evening. I'm Nancy Grace. This is Crime Stories. I

0:00:37.240 --> 0:00:46.599
<v Speaker 2>want to thank you for being with us. What is

0:00:46.720 --> 0:00:48.920
<v Speaker 2>in that autopsy now?

0:00:48.960 --> 0:00:52.000
<v Speaker 3>I really want to see the other autopsy to see

0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:53.240
<v Speaker 3>is there trauma to the body?

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:54.600
<v Speaker 4>Is there something that happened.

0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:58.120
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't believe it. I could not believe it.

0:00:58.400 --> 0:01:00.440
<v Speaker 4>I have no doubt that what we're listening to you

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:02.360
<v Speaker 4>and what she did is credible.

0:01:03.720 --> 0:01:10.480
<v Speaker 2>Not only has the timeline been analyzed by the Cajun Navy,

0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:14.160
<v Speaker 2>the US Cajun Navy based on all sorts of statistical data,

0:01:14.720 --> 0:01:18.600
<v Speaker 2>new photos are emerging. Take a look at this photo

0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:23.080
<v Speaker 2>before we go to the Cajun Navy. Look at this

0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:29.080
<v Speaker 2>Check out what you're seeing. Look at all the boats

0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:33.720
<v Speaker 2>surrounding where Nolan was leave up. The photo out to

0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:37.680
<v Speaker 2>Kaitlin Becker, Senior national correspondent, New York Post, Star of

0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:41.720
<v Speaker 2>New York postcast of their new podcast Caitlin, what are

0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:42.720
<v Speaker 2>we seeing?

0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:45.240
<v Speaker 5>Well, what we're seeing here comes from this new report

0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:49.280
<v Speaker 5>from the United Cadian Navy, and you're seeing several boats

0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:51.520
<v Speaker 5>run together. This is one of the first images that

0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:55.080
<v Speaker 5>we've seen of this certain configuration of boats there. They're

0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:58.279
<v Speaker 5>all identified, one of which was the boat that Nolan

0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:01.480
<v Speaker 5>came out there on. There are several others kind of

0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:04.400
<v Speaker 5>anchored with it and tied up with big question of

0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:06.680
<v Speaker 5>where was Nolan when this photo was taken, because it's

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:09.320
<v Speaker 5>unclear if he's actually in it, what time was this

0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:12.519
<v Speaker 5>photo actually taken. So what you're seeing here is, as

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:15.240
<v Speaker 5>you said, a potential full of witness it.

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Caylen, look at this. There's boat number one, there's

0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 2>boat X, there's boat number two, there's boat number three,

0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:30.080
<v Speaker 2>and there's a boat from which the photo is taken.

0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:33.079
<v Speaker 2>Now look in the water there much has been made.

0:02:33.480 --> 0:02:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Nolan Wells was drinking, okay, Well, apparently everybody was. They

0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 2>all have containers, open containers in the water. Okay, as

0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:47.400
<v Speaker 2>far as I know, that's not a felony. Boat number

0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:50.920
<v Speaker 2>one full of people, Boat X full of people, Boat

0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 2>number two full of people, Boat number three full of people.

0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 2>People on the boat from which the photo was taken.

0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:02.120
<v Speaker 2>Some of these boats tied together there. You know what

0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:04.880
<v Speaker 2>that means in my world, Kaitlin Becker joining us in

0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:07.839
<v Speaker 2>the New York Post, let me see Kaitlin, please, that

0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:12.440
<v Speaker 2>means witnesses. So when I look at that, I see witnesses.

0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:14.399
<v Speaker 2>Other people say, hey, there's people having a good time.

0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 2>I see witnesses. Do you see all those people and

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:20.440
<v Speaker 2>a lot of you were they? Have they been spoken to?

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:22.040
<v Speaker 2>Have they been polygraphed?

0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:24.320
<v Speaker 1>What can they tell me? That is a question.

0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:24.560
<v Speaker 6>Right.

0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:27.160
<v Speaker 5>We don't know from an investigative standpoint, who has been

0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:30.200
<v Speaker 5>spoken to exactly who is in this photo and what

0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 5>they have or haven't pulled.

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:34.200
<v Speaker 6>Law enforcement hasn't been really.

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:37.080
<v Speaker 5>Any parents there, but from what our reporting has showed,

0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:40.120
<v Speaker 5>there have been dozens of people who have spoken to

0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:43.120
<v Speaker 5>law enforcement as witnesses. But Nancy, we don't know if

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 5>it's any of these people that you're seeing in this

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:49.600
<v Speaker 5>little cove area right here. And the timing I think

0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:53.760
<v Speaker 5>is really important because these images are taken right around

0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:57.200
<v Speaker 5>I think the timeline's about three thirty ish, four thirty

0:03:57.280 --> 0:04:00.240
<v Speaker 5>ish when the boat that Nolan came out there on

0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:03.200
<v Speaker 5>leaves and starts taking on water. That's one of the

0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 5>pegs for the timeline when these photos were actually taken.

0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:08.720
<v Speaker 5>That is a peg for a timeline. But what we

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:12.000
<v Speaker 5>don't know is where Nolan is. There he is, you

0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:14.200
<v Speaker 5>can see that image right there. But we don't know

0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:16.839
<v Speaker 5>is where Nolan was when that first image that we

0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:19.159
<v Speaker 5>saw with all of those boats kind of tied together

0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:20.480
<v Speaker 5>when that was taken.

0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:25.039
<v Speaker 2>You are seeing a photo obtained by our friends at

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:31.880
<v Speaker 2>the United Cajun Navy. And speaking of the United Cajun Navy.

0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:38.239
<v Speaker 2>Joining me now is Brian Trasher, Vice President, United Cajun Navy.

0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:43.080
<v Speaker 2>And for all of you attacking the United Cajun Navy,

0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.479
<v Speaker 2>let's see that aerial footage they provided us. This is

0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:52.880
<v Speaker 2>from the Cajun Navy describing their search, their aerial search,

0:04:53.680 --> 0:05:02.839
<v Speaker 2>they spotted Nolan Wells's body. They have been integral in

0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:08.800
<v Speaker 2>the search for Knowen Wells and helping elucidate the facts

0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:15.159
<v Speaker 2>as we know them. Brace yourself, Trasher. Everybody else is

0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:18.080
<v Speaker 2>getting death threats. You might as well join the party.

0:05:19.000 --> 0:05:23.480
<v Speaker 2>To you, Brian Trasher, The United Cagian Navy has come

0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:26.599
<v Speaker 2>up with a timeline. Now, did I hear Caitlin Becker

0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:29.480
<v Speaker 2>from the New York Post correctly that that photo where

0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:32.840
<v Speaker 2>the boats are named Boat one, Boat two, Boat three,

0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:37.119
<v Speaker 2>and Boat X, is that from you guys the United

0:05:37.240 --> 0:05:37.880
<v Speaker 2>Cagian Navy.

0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:40.200
<v Speaker 6>First of all, I want to thank you for calling.

0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:42.400
<v Speaker 6>Just report what it is and it's a timeline, and

0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:44.599
<v Speaker 6>some people have called it an investigative report, and it's

0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.159
<v Speaker 6>not accurate because, as you know, we're not investigators. And

0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:50.920
<v Speaker 6>what we did, Nancy, was we asked our followers say, hey,

0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:53.599
<v Speaker 6>if anybody was there that day, you have pictures, videos, whatever,

0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:55.839
<v Speaker 6>send it to us, just so we can go through

0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:58.359
<v Speaker 6>and see if there's anything relevant. We took all that

0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:02.000
<v Speaker 6>information and compiled it in to a just one digestible

0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:05.320
<v Speaker 6>report of things we thought were relevant and could be helpful.

0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:08.000
<v Speaker 6>Maybe they're not. Maybe law enforcement has already seen all

0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:10.760
<v Speaker 6>this and it's it's nothing new to them, but we

0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:13.680
<v Speaker 6>just wanted to be transparent about what we received. So

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:17.800
<v Speaker 6>going back to your question, the pictures that we received,

0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 6>we did not as an organization take any of these photographs.

0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:23.880
<v Speaker 6>These are all images that we received from people who

0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:25.480
<v Speaker 6>are trying to help us out and trying to help

0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:26.479
<v Speaker 6>no one's family out.

0:06:26.640 --> 0:06:30.680
<v Speaker 2>So you asked the public for help, and you got it.

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:34.200
<v Speaker 2>You got a treasure trove of photos, and I find

0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:37.159
<v Speaker 2>this was significant. Guys. We've got an all star panel,

0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:39.880
<v Speaker 2>and I would like the all Star panel to look

0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 2>at their screens because I've talked about this before, Brian Trasher,

0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:49.360
<v Speaker 2>and I'm frankly fed up with attacks on the United

0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:54.240
<v Speaker 2>Occasion Navy. They're doing something, which is more than all

0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:57.960
<v Speaker 2>of the haters can say. They're doing something. They have

0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:00.440
<v Speaker 2>amassed evidence, they have created a timeline to the best

0:07:00.480 --> 0:07:03.240
<v Speaker 2>of their ability. They have shared it with us, unlike

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:06.120
<v Speaker 2>the autopsy that is complete, it is being kept secret

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:12.960
<v Speaker 2>from us. That said, they're helping, why trash them? That's

0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:15.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm not a shrink. I can't answer that.

0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:18.960
<v Speaker 2>Let's look at this photo and determine what, if anything,

0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:21.880
<v Speaker 2>we can discern. Brian, you and I have talked many,

0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:24.320
<v Speaker 2>many times, and I told you about a serial killer

0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 2>I finally convicted on one case. The jury convicted him,

0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:31.720
<v Speaker 2>and I proved a lot because of one ear ring,

0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:35.960
<v Speaker 2>one earring I found in a particular location. The victim

0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:38.960
<v Speaker 2>was wearing an ear ring and the other earring had

0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:41.960
<v Speaker 2>been sliced out of her ear and I found it

0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:45.760
<v Speaker 2>somewhere else, and I learned a lot because of where

0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:51.000
<v Speaker 2>it was. Now, don't even bother to tell me that

0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:55.160
<v Speaker 2>this photo that you have produced is not probative of something.

0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 2>The cluster of boats number one. I see a lot

0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:02.600
<v Speaker 2>of witnesses as sure, what do we know what time

0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:03.840
<v Speaker 2>this photo was taken?

0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:10.760
<v Speaker 6>We don't know definitively times on all these because even

0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:13.520
<v Speaker 6>though there are time stamped, it could be a time

0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:16.640
<v Speaker 6>when it was screenshotted stamped, not necessarily you know, the

0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:19.880
<v Speaker 6>original photographs. So we were very careful to denote that

0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:24.840
<v Speaker 6>in our report that we can't verify timelines, although based

0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:28.000
<v Speaker 6>on you know, shadows and positions and things like that,

0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 6>we can determine that some of these as noted or

0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:34.240
<v Speaker 6>taken in the late afternoon. One of the things I

0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:36.320
<v Speaker 6>thought was interesting about some of these photos we got, Nancy,

0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:38.160
<v Speaker 6>was that a lot of the photos we had seen

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:40.400
<v Speaker 6>before were people like in waste deep water, with some

0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:43.240
<v Speaker 6>of the photos we provided show people up you know,

0:08:43.400 --> 0:08:45.360
<v Speaker 6>water up to their chests almost to their neck, and

0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:49.160
<v Speaker 6>that's not really waiting, that's that's treading water, in my opinion,

0:08:49.200 --> 0:08:51.840
<v Speaker 6>and that I thought might have been significant to know

0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:56.160
<v Speaker 6>that that many people were, you know, perhaps enjoying some libations,

0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:57.680
<v Speaker 6>but also in water that might have been a little

0:08:57.679 --> 0:08:58.720
<v Speaker 6>too deep just to be playing.

0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 2>And one good point, you know, you also said something

0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:04.280
<v Speaker 2>else really smart, and I certainly do not want to

0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:08.760
<v Speaker 2>rely on this, but sometimes you have to. You take

0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:10.640
<v Speaker 2>the evidence as you find it, and you make the

0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:12.880
<v Speaker 2>most of what you've got. You said you could tell

0:09:12.920 --> 0:09:15.640
<v Speaker 2>this was late in the afternoon because of the shadowing.

0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:21.560
<v Speaker 2>I wonder if the tide could tell me anything, because

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:25.440
<v Speaker 2>how high up the water is. But these people holding drinks,

0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:29.320
<v Speaker 2>they're not treading water, trash er, they're standing there. These

0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.800
<v Speaker 2>people are not treading water, and the water is up

0:09:31.840 --> 0:09:35.079
<v Speaker 2>to their armpits. Is that the photo you're talking about

0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:36.760
<v Speaker 2>as to where you think some of them are treading

0:09:36.760 --> 0:09:38.680
<v Speaker 2>water or are there other photos.

0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:40.880
<v Speaker 6>The photo at the top, Yes, you're right, it's about

0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:43.840
<v Speaker 6>up to their armpit. I think there was one later

0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:48.920
<v Speaker 6>in the report that showed some of the kids. This

0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:52.280
<v Speaker 6>is where this is a screenshot of a social media post,

0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:56.800
<v Speaker 6>and there's three boats visible, one fourth boat further in

0:09:56.800 --> 0:09:59.439
<v Speaker 6>the distance, but a lot of kids on one but

0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:02.680
<v Speaker 6>I young people on one boat, some on the boats,

0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:05.600
<v Speaker 6>some in the water, and some of them it looks,

0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:07.680
<v Speaker 6>you know, maybe up to the armpit, but some of them,

0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:09.920
<v Speaker 6>depending on their own height, it looks like it's you know,

0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:11.920
<v Speaker 6>I could see a girl holding something in her hand

0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:14.199
<v Speaker 6>and the water looks to be pretty close to her neck,

0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:17.120
<v Speaker 6>so that's pretty far out. I know. We've said several

0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:21.240
<v Speaker 6>times that corn Island has a very aggressive slope, so

0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:23.760
<v Speaker 6>you can be in shallow water in deep water within

0:10:23.880 --> 0:10:25.480
<v Speaker 6>just a few steps, and once you get into that

0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:28.800
<v Speaker 6>deep water, you're not as able to keep your feet

0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:31.080
<v Speaker 6>on the ground if a current comes and pulls you,

0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:33.840
<v Speaker 6>or God forbid, a riptide comes and drags you. So

0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.440
<v Speaker 6>that's why we thought it was significant to know that

0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:39.600
<v Speaker 6>they were socializing in fairly deep water.

0:10:40.160 --> 0:10:43.840
<v Speaker 2>Isn't it true, Brian Trasher that these boats are easily

0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:47.880
<v Speaker 2>identifiable by a I call it a tail number like

0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:51.160
<v Speaker 2>you would applying. Every boat has to be registered or

0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:53.439
<v Speaker 2>supposed to be registered, has a number on it and

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:56.560
<v Speaker 2>often has a name like Tryton. One was named mac Daddy.

0:10:57.960 --> 0:11:00.920
<v Speaker 2>There were other names they're and you know who the

0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:02.719
<v Speaker 2>owner is, and the owner can tell us who was

0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:04.360
<v Speaker 2>on the boat that day. Is that correct?

0:11:06.120 --> 0:11:08.599
<v Speaker 6>Theoretically? Yeah, if you can make out the if you

0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:11.000
<v Speaker 6>can make out the registration number or the name of

0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:13.960
<v Speaker 6>the boat, if the vessel's name is registered, you know,

0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:18.480
<v Speaker 6>uh with along with the with the with the registration number.

0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:22.280
<v Speaker 6>Usually that's sometimes only on a on a coastguard document,

0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:24.320
<v Speaker 6>but sometimes on the state registration you can put the

0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 6>vehicle the boat name if it's asked for or if

0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.800
<v Speaker 6>you have one. So that is all possible, you know,

0:11:29.880 --> 0:11:32.480
<v Speaker 6>I'm told and we you know, we're asked to compare

0:11:32.520 --> 0:11:35.320
<v Speaker 6>notes with the with the Sheriff's office, which we're doing.

0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:38.760
<v Speaker 6>But I was told that there's been a lot of

0:11:38.800 --> 0:11:41.480
<v Speaker 6>people that have been contacted and interviewed, and there's a

0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:43.760
<v Speaker 6>lot of people who were there that day that voluntarily

0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:47.719
<v Speaker 6>came forward to tell what they know, and because they

0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:49.880
<v Speaker 6>might have seen their boats and pictures, say oh, you know,

0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:51.439
<v Speaker 6>we might want to go ahead and call them and

0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:53.480
<v Speaker 6>let them know, you know, where we were, who is

0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:56.079
<v Speaker 6>with us, and what we know. So I commend those

0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:59.880
<v Speaker 6>people for coming forward, because it's not always easy too.

0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:02.600
<v Speaker 2>So Marie Pereira joining us, in addition to the vice

0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:05.920
<v Speaker 2>president of the United Cajun Navy, who has been there

0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:10.720
<v Speaker 2>from the get go trying to help solve the case,

0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:17.840
<v Speaker 2>Marie Pereira registered nurse, which is important, but she is

0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:22.120
<v Speaker 2>a criminal defense attorney and domestic violence expert. She is

0:12:22.600 --> 0:12:28.920
<v Speaker 2>a violence expert, certified advocate. Marie, you saw that all

0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.760
<v Speaker 2>those people in my book are witnesses. One of them

0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:34.640
<v Speaker 2>is saying at seven point thirty, no one was nowhere

0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:38.400
<v Speaker 2>to be seen. Now I want to see the video

0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:41.520
<v Speaker 2>or the photo again, because you want to tell me

0:12:42.320 --> 0:12:46.040
<v Speaker 2>that this guy, Nolan Wills, hit his head and drowned

0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:48.640
<v Speaker 2>and none of those people saw what happened. I find

0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:50.720
<v Speaker 2>that really hard to believe.

0:12:51.240 --> 0:12:53.880
<v Speaker 4>It is hard to believe, and that's why it's extremely

0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:57.480
<v Speaker 4>important that the law enforcement are not too proud to

0:12:57.559 --> 0:13:00.439
<v Speaker 4>get help from the public. Like you said, if people

0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:03.599
<v Speaker 4>are sending in videos, they should be using those videos

0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:08.280
<v Speaker 4>to conduct further investigation. I'm praying that this is a

0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:12.400
<v Speaker 4>situation like Brian Colberger, where the police department they were

0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:15.719
<v Speaker 4>being ragged and being called ranky, dank police while all

0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:19.520
<v Speaker 4>the time they were investigating and putting together a case

0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:23.280
<v Speaker 4>against him. I hold them that, yeah, because all the

0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:25.640
<v Speaker 4>time they were saying, oh what are they doing? It

0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:28.640
<v Speaker 4>was a I think the DA had a long, big

0:13:28.679 --> 0:13:32.440
<v Speaker 4>beard which wasn't very conducive to believing he knew what

0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:33.760
<v Speaker 4>he was doing, but they knew.

0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:34.160
<v Speaker 7>What they were doing.

0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:39.280
<v Speaker 2>It looked like Leonard Skinner sitting there. That video is

0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:43.440
<v Speaker 2>from Officer Tatum's podcast. All this means witnesses to me?

0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:46.680
<v Speaker 2>And do you remember in the Diddy case there was

0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:49.880
<v Speaker 2>actually a toll free number for victims to call. There

0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:52.880
<v Speaker 2>were that many victims. Not that it helped at the trial,

0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:55.840
<v Speaker 2>but that said, I think there needs to be a

0:13:55.840 --> 0:13:59.160
<v Speaker 2>toll free number. If you think you have evidence, dial

0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:02.240
<v Speaker 2>the numb. If you have photos, Like the United Cajun

0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:04.920
<v Speaker 2>Navy is doing, they ask for the public's help. They

0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:08.079
<v Speaker 2>got the public's help, and there's more to get. That's

0:14:08.120 --> 0:14:12.439
<v Speaker 2>what is needed now. Every picture, every video. How often

0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:15.640
<v Speaker 2>have cases been cracked when someone spots something in a

0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:18.880
<v Speaker 2>picture they hadn't noticed before, or their memory is jogged

0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:22.200
<v Speaker 2>by a photo or information they've seen online. I've pointed

0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:27.320
<v Speaker 2>to this a million times. Brian Trasher, the Gabby Petito case,

0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:31.360
<v Speaker 2>her body would never have been found if it weren't

0:14:31.400 --> 0:14:36.880
<v Speaker 2>for amateur sluice. I believe their name is Red, Blue

0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:40.760
<v Speaker 2>and Methane. They were a couple out in the middle

0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:44.680
<v Speaker 2>of nowhere in dispersed camping where there are no porta potties,

0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:47.400
<v Speaker 2>no lights, no hookups, no anything, is just you and

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:51.800
<v Speaker 2>the wild animals I've camped and dispersed before. They're out

0:14:51.840 --> 0:14:54.400
<v Speaker 2>there and they see a vehicle and they go, uh,

0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:59.680
<v Speaker 2>that's Gabby's for transit. And they call authorities who would

0:14:59.720 --> 0:15:03.600
<v Speaker 2>never have gone to this dispersed camping area and they

0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:08.840
<v Speaker 2>find her remains. That's how the case was cracked. Who

0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:13.440
<v Speaker 2>knows what photo, what tip united a Cajun, Navy or

0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:17.440
<v Speaker 2>law enforcement or the Nolan Wills team might get that

0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:21.840
<v Speaker 2>might crack this case wide open. So that said, Brian,

0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:26.600
<v Speaker 2>how did you create this time a lot? I find

0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:28.200
<v Speaker 2>it very interesting.

0:15:28.640 --> 0:15:30.640
<v Speaker 6>So first of all, you know, going back to your

0:15:30.640 --> 0:15:32.960
<v Speaker 6>comment about Internet slue, there's a lot of people consider

0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:35.280
<v Speaker 6>themselves internet slue. So some people really are good. And

0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:38.800
<v Speaker 6>there's one young lady who's helped us out on many cases,

0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:41.280
<v Speaker 6>who was very helpful in this case. I haven't asked

0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:43.560
<v Speaker 6>her permission yet if I could say her name, but

0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:45.400
<v Speaker 6>if she gives me permission and I'll come back on,

0:15:45.800 --> 0:15:47.360
<v Speaker 6>I'll be happy to give her credit for all the

0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:50.800
<v Speaker 6>help she gave us. But basically what we did was

0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:53.000
<v Speaker 6>we took Like I said, we took these pictures. We

0:15:54.120 --> 0:15:57.760
<v Speaker 6>juxtaposed them to you know, like Google Earth and satellite

0:15:57.760 --> 0:16:01.240
<v Speaker 6>pictures of the island to try to determine exactly where

0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:05.000
<v Speaker 6>they were. We looked at the initial coordinates called out

0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:07.320
<v Speaker 6>from the h I think from the Coastguard or from

0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:11.120
<v Speaker 6>Marine Patrol when the when the missing persons report first

0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:15.120
<v Speaker 6>went out, and basically just just try to run these

0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:17.840
<v Speaker 6>pictures against each other to say, Okay, this boat's here now,

0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:21.040
<v Speaker 6>it's not here later, you know, and again just create

0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:23.320
<v Speaker 6>an index. You know. We had to use some software

0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:26.160
<v Speaker 6>to help us create the index of the pictures and

0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:28.600
<v Speaker 6>make sure we put it into the best timeline we could.

0:16:28.640 --> 0:16:31.560
<v Speaker 6>We included social media posts that you know, may or

0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:33.640
<v Speaker 6>may not have been definitive, but these are This was

0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:35.960
<v Speaker 6>happening in real time, so we thought it was important

0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:39.520
<v Speaker 6>to put those up there to create context. And so

0:16:39.560 --> 0:16:42.800
<v Speaker 6>again like just trying to you know, our goal was

0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:46.240
<v Speaker 6>to take what we've received, put it into a digestible

0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:50.000
<v Speaker 6>format that just about anybody could understand hopefully, and if

0:16:50.040 --> 0:16:52.960
<v Speaker 6>it's helpful, great, If it's not, then I don't think

0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:54.600
<v Speaker 6>no harm, no fault. You know.

0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Crime stories with Nancy Grace.

0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:12.639
<v Speaker 2>To Dave Matt Crime Stories investigative reporter based on this timeline,

0:17:12.680 --> 0:17:17.280
<v Speaker 2>and it may be refined as the days go forward.

0:17:18.400 --> 0:17:26.239
<v Speaker 2>How does it shift the timeline because there is a

0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:30.399
<v Speaker 2>group of people fighting at five pm? Who are they?

0:17:30.560 --> 0:17:32.560
<v Speaker 2>The friends say they leave at four point thirty one,

0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:38.800
<v Speaker 2>that should be able to be verified through GPS five pm.

0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:43.240
<v Speaker 2>No one, according to them is still at Horn Island?

0:17:43.400 --> 0:17:46.960
<v Speaker 2>Is he? Because by seven point thirty witness states no

0:17:47.600 --> 0:17:51.560
<v Speaker 2>one nowhere in sight? So where was he? He wasn't

0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:55.320
<v Speaker 2>floating in the water, He wasn't on the shore. If

0:17:55.720 --> 0:17:59.240
<v Speaker 2>he had hold on Dave to Joe Scott Morgan, if

0:17:59.280 --> 0:18:04.240
<v Speaker 2>he had drowned, wouldn't he be floating in the water.

0:18:04.640 --> 0:18:08.600
<v Speaker 8>Perhaps I've seen bodies in the immediate that will go

0:18:08.680 --> 0:18:12.439
<v Speaker 8>directly to the bottom, and there are those that do

0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:14.880
<v Speaker 8>in fact float. So a lot of it is going

0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:19.400
<v Speaker 8>to depend upon the temperature of the water many times,

0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:21.640
<v Speaker 8>a lot of it's going to depend upon is there

0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:24.960
<v Speaker 8>anything else out there that could let's see, how can

0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:28.680
<v Speaker 8>I put this that could in fact impede the body's

0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:31.600
<v Speaker 8>ability to float to the top, like beneath a boat.

0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:33.919
<v Speaker 8>And as you can see, there are a lot of

0:18:33.920 --> 0:18:36.720
<v Speaker 8>boats out there, So if in fact that had occurred,

0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:40.600
<v Speaker 8>you can actually have bodies that will be caught beneath

0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:43.719
<v Speaker 8>other vessels or cases like that where they're you know,

0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:49.160
<v Speaker 8>they were looking around for someone and they couldn't find

0:18:49.160 --> 0:18:53.159
<v Speaker 8>them because the whole area was surrounded by vessels. And

0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:56.200
<v Speaker 8>so there are a lot of elements that go into

0:18:56.240 --> 0:18:56.960
<v Speaker 8>this an The.

0:18:56.920 --> 0:19:00.119
<v Speaker 2>Photo we keep showing you is on page twelve the

0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:04.440
<v Speaker 2>United Cajun Navy report. It chose three boats and more

0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:09.760
<v Speaker 2>anchored side by side. Boat number three, the Palm Beach,

0:19:10.760 --> 0:19:15.240
<v Speaker 2>and also the Triton we believe, which is the boat

0:19:15.280 --> 0:19:19.560
<v Speaker 2>that took Nolan to Horn Island. It's also the boat

0:19:20.600 --> 0:19:28.560
<v Speaker 2>that reportedly leaves according to the occupants without Nolan. They

0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:31.800
<v Speaker 2>claim they begged him to board their vessel, but he

0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:37.400
<v Speaker 2>said no. Let me understand this. According Caitlin Becker, according

0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:42.119
<v Speaker 2>to the mysterious Katie not that mysterious because her sister

0:19:42.160 --> 0:19:46.119
<v Speaker 2>has posted and we've obtained her photo. We think she

0:19:46.200 --> 0:19:50.160
<v Speaker 2>says he left with his friends. They say he stayed

0:19:50.200 --> 0:19:52.280
<v Speaker 2>with her. Okay, that's problem.

0:19:52.400 --> 0:19:55.160
<v Speaker 5>Yep, that's a problem. And they're also quite a few

0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:57.840
<v Speaker 5>friends that he had come out with. So the Traton

0:19:57.840 --> 0:20:00.359
<v Speaker 5>that he was on. There were three or four people

0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:02.680
<v Speaker 5>on that particular boat that's the one that he had

0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:04.360
<v Speaker 5>come out on and the ones that hit the one

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:06.399
<v Speaker 5>that his friends say. We asked him to get back

0:20:06.440 --> 0:20:08.160
<v Speaker 5>on the boat. He didn't get back on the boat.

0:20:08.200 --> 0:20:10.280
<v Speaker 5>His phone was on the boat. We left, We took

0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:12.520
<v Speaker 5>on water, we needed help. He said he was going

0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:16.120
<v Speaker 5>to stay to talk to this mysterious, as you said, Katie. Mysterious.

0:20:16.200 --> 0:20:18.560
<v Speaker 5>Katie says that she talked to him for a minute,

0:20:18.640 --> 0:20:22.000
<v Speaker 5>it was no big deal. Then he his friends called

0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:24.080
<v Speaker 5>him back and that's where he went, and she just

0:20:24.160 --> 0:20:26.320
<v Speaker 5>assumed he went back on the boat with his friends.

0:20:26.480 --> 0:20:28.600
<v Speaker 5>The issue I think that we're running into here is

0:20:28.600 --> 0:20:31.200
<v Speaker 5>that the friends weren't just the four that you're seeing

0:20:31.280 --> 0:20:34.320
<v Speaker 5>right here. There were multiple boats, three boats full of

0:20:34.320 --> 0:20:37.240
<v Speaker 5>friends that came out. So could he have been going

0:20:37.320 --> 0:20:40.320
<v Speaker 5>back to a second boat full of his friends while

0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:42.600
<v Speaker 5>the triton was gone, or were they referring to the

0:20:42.640 --> 0:20:45.560
<v Speaker 5>triton itself. That I think is where the biggest bit

0:20:45.640 --> 0:20:47.480
<v Speaker 5>of confusion lays.

0:20:47.560 --> 0:20:52.040
<v Speaker 2>Day Matt question. Dave Matt, Crime Story's investigative reporter, didn't

0:20:52.119 --> 0:20:55.399
<v Speaker 2>at the get go the friends on the boat stay.

0:20:55.880 --> 0:20:58.600
<v Speaker 2>They didn't know the name of the girl, they didn't

0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:01.720
<v Speaker 2>know who she was, they had never seen her before.

0:21:02.600 --> 0:21:06.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm paraphrasing. We can look up their exact words. Then

0:21:07.240 --> 0:21:11.760
<v Speaker 2>does it turn out they're actually texting with her about

0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:13.159
<v Speaker 2>where is Nolan?

0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:17.240
<v Speaker 3>Apparently, Nancy, we've you have to realize a couple of

0:21:17.280 --> 0:21:19.720
<v Speaker 3>things here, and it's getting lost in the muck.

0:21:19.760 --> 0:21:22.240
<v Speaker 6>And the mire is the friends we used the.

0:21:22.320 --> 0:21:25.479
<v Speaker 3>Term Nolan's friends that he went to Horn Island was well,

0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:30.119
<v Speaker 3>you know what, Nancy. Many people have said that he

0:21:30.200 --> 0:21:33.200
<v Speaker 3>didn't know Katie, they didn't know Katie before that day,

0:21:33.600 --> 0:21:36.679
<v Speaker 3>and that Nolan just started talking to her. But now

0:21:36.800 --> 0:21:41.600
<v Speaker 3>it appears that they being the group of friends where

0:21:41.640 --> 0:21:44.840
<v Speaker 3>they were communicating with Katie and knew who she was

0:21:45.080 --> 0:21:46.439
<v Speaker 3>and that during this So.

0:21:46.440 --> 0:21:48.359
<v Speaker 2>Why would they say they didn't know who she was

0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:50.080
<v Speaker 2>call her some girl? A girl?

0:21:50.440 --> 0:21:53.359
<v Speaker 3>Well, here's the problem, Nancy, is I keep hearing friends,

0:21:53.400 --> 0:21:56.480
<v Speaker 3>but you realize that Nolan he went out to Horn

0:21:56.560 --> 0:21:59.439
<v Speaker 3>Island on a boat. You know, Warren Hudson has talked

0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:02.480
<v Speaker 3>a lot. He's been with Officer Tatum talking about, you know,

0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:04.119
<v Speaker 3>his best friend Nolan and the whole thing.

0:22:04.200 --> 0:22:05.280
<v Speaker 6>But first of.

0:22:05.240 --> 0:22:07.760
<v Speaker 3>All, Warren did not go to Horn Island on the

0:22:07.800 --> 0:22:11.960
<v Speaker 3>same boat as Nolan Wells. And we have heard over

0:22:12.000 --> 0:22:14.640
<v Speaker 3>and over from parents and friends he would you run

0:22:14.680 --> 0:22:17.080
<v Speaker 3>with the one that got you there, right, So Nolan

0:22:17.160 --> 0:22:19.479
<v Speaker 3>went with one boat and they expected he would return

0:22:19.560 --> 0:22:22.359
<v Speaker 3>on the same boat. Yet we're now finding out that

0:22:22.600 --> 0:22:25.879
<v Speaker 3>was never the plan. He was never going back on

0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:29.480
<v Speaker 3>the same boat that took him to the island. So

0:22:29.600 --> 0:22:32.760
<v Speaker 3>when we talk about this group of friends, Nancy, they

0:22:32.800 --> 0:22:36.159
<v Speaker 3>were scattered on three or four different boats, and we

0:22:36.320 --> 0:22:39.160
<v Speaker 3>keep focusing on the one with the Bilch pump problem.

0:22:39.359 --> 0:22:44.679
<v Speaker 3>But now, what boat was Nolan Wells supposed to be

0:22:44.760 --> 0:22:48.960
<v Speaker 3>going back to the mainland. We know he didn't ride

0:22:49.000 --> 0:22:52.399
<v Speaker 3>with Warren Hudson to the island, so where was he

0:22:52.440 --> 0:22:53.280
<v Speaker 3>supposed to be on.

0:22:53.800 --> 0:22:58.160
<v Speaker 2>Brian Trasher joining US Vice President United Cajun Navy on

0:22:58.200 --> 0:23:02.000
<v Speaker 2>the case from the very beginning, Brian, do we know

0:23:02.119 --> 0:23:07.200
<v Speaker 2>the time of the sea tow call made from the Triton?

0:23:08.119 --> 0:23:09.320
<v Speaker 6>We do. I don't know it off the top of

0:23:09.359 --> 0:23:11.720
<v Speaker 6>my head, but I know it's been It's been reported,

0:23:12.240 --> 0:23:16.199
<v Speaker 6>and obviously the Sea Toe would have the exact you know,

0:23:16.320 --> 0:23:19.760
<v Speaker 6>time of that recording and stuff in their archives, and

0:23:20.240 --> 0:23:24.200
<v Speaker 6>but it seems like it was, you know, after three o'clock,

0:23:24.240 --> 0:23:26.480
<v Speaker 6>before four point thirty. And we know that the toe

0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:30.520
<v Speaker 6>was canceled because somebody got in touch with mart Edmondson,

0:23:30.520 --> 0:23:33.840
<v Speaker 6>who ended up towing the boat himself, being a good Samaritan.

0:23:33.960 --> 0:23:36.520
<v Speaker 6>Of course, now that poor guy is getting you know,

0:23:36.600 --> 0:23:39.080
<v Speaker 6>raked over the coals just for being a good you

0:23:39.080 --> 0:23:41.280
<v Speaker 6>know what. What. We try to tell everybody to be neighbor,

0:23:41.320 --> 0:23:41.959
<v Speaker 6>help and neighbor.

0:23:42.119 --> 0:23:44.920
<v Speaker 2>Now, didn't the grandpa call and cancel the toe?

0:23:45.119 --> 0:23:47.800
<v Speaker 6>Yeah? I think that I saw that report as well,

0:23:47.800 --> 0:23:50.560
<v Speaker 6>and it may have been that somebody contacted him and said, hey,

0:23:50.560 --> 0:23:53.080
<v Speaker 6>we got somebody to toe. So maybe he called because

0:23:53.119 --> 0:23:55.880
<v Speaker 6>he had a better signal and said, hey, they don't

0:23:55.920 --> 0:23:58.840
<v Speaker 6>need it anymore. Again, these are all kind of you know,

0:23:58.960 --> 0:24:00.919
<v Speaker 6>the things that lay out there. I don't think we

0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:02.760
<v Speaker 6>included too much about that in I report because it

0:24:03.040 --> 0:24:05.399
<v Speaker 6>had been reported on so much. But I also just

0:24:05.440 --> 0:24:08.280
<v Speaker 6>wanted to point out too on the photo on page fourteen,

0:24:08.840 --> 0:24:11.200
<v Speaker 6>this is one that we included even though we could

0:24:11.320 --> 0:24:14.920
<v Speaker 6>there's a there's a young man that matches Nolan's description,

0:24:15.000 --> 0:24:17.520
<v Speaker 6>and I'm saying it that way because we can't verify

0:24:17.600 --> 0:24:20.480
<v Speaker 6>that it's him in this picture, and he's partially in

0:24:20.480 --> 0:24:22.639
<v Speaker 6>it because there's a girl blocking then. But it's a

0:24:22.720 --> 0:24:26.359
<v Speaker 6>it's a young, slender African American male wearing blue swim

0:24:26.400 --> 0:24:28.760
<v Speaker 6>trunks from what you could see in the in the picture.

0:24:29.040 --> 0:24:32.639
<v Speaker 6>According to the person that submitted that photo, it was

0:24:32.680 --> 0:24:36.639
<v Speaker 6>taken at approximately four fifty pm Central time on July fourth,

0:24:36.640 --> 0:24:40.840
<v Speaker 6>which would have been after the GPS data says that

0:24:41.040 --> 0:24:44.520
<v Speaker 6>they had Triton had left Horn Island. Now that's only

0:24:44.720 --> 0:24:47.600
<v Speaker 6>relevant if this young man in the picture actually turns

0:24:47.600 --> 0:24:50.159
<v Speaker 6>out to be Nolan. We never could verify it, but

0:24:50.200 --> 0:24:52.840
<v Speaker 6>we thought it was important enough to at least include

0:24:52.840 --> 0:24:57.399
<v Speaker 6>as a possibility.

0:24:59.400 --> 0:25:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Crimes to with Nancy Grace.

0:25:05.040 --> 0:25:08.960
<v Speaker 2>The photo that Brian Trasher from United Occasion Navy has

0:25:09.000 --> 0:25:14.440
<v Speaker 2>provided on page fourteen of their new timeline report, We're

0:25:14.480 --> 0:25:21.639
<v Speaker 2>blowing it up. We see one, two three at the forefront,

0:25:21.840 --> 0:25:27.520
<v Speaker 2>three white females in bikinis, one white male walking along.

0:25:27.960 --> 0:25:30.840
<v Speaker 2>Now beside the woman in the bikini on the right,

0:25:32.000 --> 0:25:38.600
<v Speaker 2>I see two people. One looks like a female furthest

0:25:38.640 --> 0:25:42.159
<v Speaker 2>a way. But between the white female and the other

0:25:42.320 --> 0:25:47.080
<v Speaker 2>female there is an African American male that does not

0:25:47.359 --> 0:25:51.800
<v Speaker 2>look like Nolan. Wills to me, Okay, I'm gonna have

0:25:51.880 --> 0:25:57.360
<v Speaker 2>to bring in NASA to enhance this. Brian Trasher. Does

0:25:57.359 --> 0:25:58.680
<v Speaker 2>this guy have facial hair?

0:25:58.760 --> 0:26:02.159
<v Speaker 6>That's not Nolan, it's I mean again, we couldn't verify,

0:26:02.400 --> 0:26:05.560
<v Speaker 6>but we could tell that it was an African American

0:26:05.600 --> 0:26:08.000
<v Speaker 6>male on the beach wearing blue swim trunks. We thought

0:26:08.000 --> 0:26:10.040
<v Speaker 6>that was enough to say, Okay, it's possible.

0:26:10.480 --> 0:26:15.520
<v Speaker 2>But we did those deep dark blue.

0:26:16.000 --> 0:26:17.679
<v Speaker 6>It looks like it. But Nancy, I don't know if

0:26:17.680 --> 0:26:20.280
<v Speaker 6>this pictures been enhanced. I don't know if it's been filtered.

0:26:20.400 --> 0:26:22.840
<v Speaker 6>You know what I'm saying. So again that that that's

0:26:22.880 --> 0:26:25.879
<v Speaker 6>the whole reason why we couldn't corroborate. But it was like, okay,

0:26:26.760 --> 0:26:29.680
<v Speaker 6>and and and also too, this does create a good

0:26:29.840 --> 0:26:33.199
<v Speaker 6>picture of a flotilla of boats and where if we

0:26:33.240 --> 0:26:35.520
<v Speaker 6>had we were looking for a particular one. You know,

0:26:35.560 --> 0:26:37.159
<v Speaker 6>it was one a good one to hang on to.

0:26:37.200 --> 0:26:41.720
<v Speaker 6>You so again, fully fully disclosing that we could not

0:26:42.720 --> 0:26:44.520
<v Speaker 6>definitively say whether that was him or not.

0:26:44.760 --> 0:26:49.000
<v Speaker 2>Probably not, but it's we needed for the investigation. We

0:26:49.080 --> 0:26:54.000
<v Speaker 2>need it, and you provided it. Okay, So is this

0:26:54.119 --> 0:26:56.760
<v Speaker 2>no one? If it is no one? This is at

0:26:56.800 --> 0:26:59.520
<v Speaker 2>four fifty four five zero and props he's still on

0:26:59.560 --> 0:27:02.800
<v Speaker 2>the island when the other boat, the Triton, leaves. I

0:27:02.800 --> 0:27:05.879
<v Speaker 2>don't think this is no one, but that's just my

0:27:06.680 --> 0:27:11.680
<v Speaker 2>own two eyes twenty eighteen. It needs to be enhanced.

0:27:12.680 --> 0:27:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Joining us now veteran trial lawyer out of South Carolina jurisdiction,

0:27:17.680 --> 0:27:21.960
<v Speaker 2>John Mobley, the founder of the John Mobley Law Firm.

0:27:22.440 --> 0:27:24.520
<v Speaker 2>See a lot of people would say, oh, this is

0:27:24.560 --> 0:27:27.960
<v Speaker 2>a nightmare. All these witnesses. I would have a field

0:27:28.040 --> 0:27:33.440
<v Speaker 2>day interviewing each witness separately. It's like a bonanza. What

0:27:33.480 --> 0:27:35.440
<v Speaker 2>do you make of what you're hearing? Mobley?

0:27:35.680 --> 0:27:37.600
<v Speaker 7>Well, you know, Nancy, I gotta call it like I

0:27:37.640 --> 0:27:41.720
<v Speaker 7>see it. I review the support in detail. I don't

0:27:41.720 --> 0:27:43.960
<v Speaker 7>think it puts any points on the board. I don't

0:27:43.960 --> 0:27:47.199
<v Speaker 7>think it moves the needle. If anything, I think it

0:27:47.320 --> 0:27:50.600
<v Speaker 7>shows everyone that has opinions out there how difficult it

0:27:50.720 --> 0:27:54.160
<v Speaker 7>is to find reliable information. Because one thing I want

0:27:54.240 --> 0:27:56.840
<v Speaker 7>to say about the support, although I didn't find it

0:27:56.880 --> 0:28:00.520
<v Speaker 7>particularly youthful, is that you know, it's sore all of

0:28:00.560 --> 0:28:04.400
<v Speaker 7>its information, you know, And unlike a Netflix documentary where

0:28:04.400 --> 0:28:07.280
<v Speaker 7>people will form opinions on second and third hand information,

0:28:07.800 --> 0:28:10.919
<v Speaker 7>it would say this person said this, but this person

0:28:10.920 --> 0:28:13.920
<v Speaker 7>didn't witness it firsthand. This person repeated what someone else

0:28:13.920 --> 0:28:17.679
<v Speaker 7>said or it said. This person made this statement on Facebook.

0:28:17.880 --> 0:28:21.440
<v Speaker 7>I mean even the digital information, the photos, those aren't

0:28:21.440 --> 0:28:24.399
<v Speaker 7>reliable because number one, like they say, you know, you

0:28:24.480 --> 0:28:27.160
<v Speaker 7>can't corroberate the time stamp. It could be the time

0:28:27.200 --> 0:28:30.320
<v Speaker 7>stamp to when the photo was screenshot versus taken or

0:28:30.359 --> 0:28:32.200
<v Speaker 7>even in the last one we looked at their saying,

0:28:32.680 --> 0:28:34.600
<v Speaker 7>they can't say it was reliable because it could have

0:28:34.600 --> 0:28:37.359
<v Speaker 7>been enhanced, you know, with the color manipulated. So I

0:28:37.400 --> 0:28:39.920
<v Speaker 7>think it just goes to show how difficult it is

0:28:39.960 --> 0:28:42.720
<v Speaker 7>to find any real reliable information on this case.

0:28:42.840 --> 0:28:49.600
<v Speaker 2>Mobley, no offense, but you're wasting my time. I got

0:28:49.720 --> 0:28:55.000
<v Speaker 2>one hour tonight and you just wasted almost one minute

0:28:55.000 --> 0:29:00.400
<v Speaker 2>of it. Every investigation starts somewhere. Only just understand something.

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:02.520
<v Speaker 2>You have tried a lot of cases, right, That's.

0:29:02.360 --> 0:29:05.680
<v Speaker 1>What I was told ton and I one most of them.

0:29:06.160 --> 0:29:09.920
<v Speaker 2>Nothing like tooting your own horn ba bah. That said,

0:29:11.880 --> 0:29:19.040
<v Speaker 2>every investigation starts someware. Yes, I don't have the timestamp,

0:29:19.800 --> 0:29:22.120
<v Speaker 2>but I can get the timestamp because I know now

0:29:22.160 --> 0:29:26.640
<v Speaker 2>I know about the photo. You start somewhere and then

0:29:26.720 --> 0:29:29.360
<v Speaker 2>you start digging, and then you find out what time

0:29:29.400 --> 0:29:31.480
<v Speaker 2>it was taken. Then you find out if it was enhanced.

0:29:31.600 --> 0:29:33.600
<v Speaker 2>Then you find out is that no one at four

0:29:33.720 --> 0:29:37.800
<v Speaker 2>fifty in the boat has left. You enhance that audio

0:29:37.880 --> 0:29:41.160
<v Speaker 2>we keep playing, you find out if they're saying no one,

0:29:41.240 --> 0:29:44.280
<v Speaker 2>no one's dead, no one's I don't know if that's

0:29:44.320 --> 0:29:46.960
<v Speaker 2>real or not, but I can find out if it's real.

0:29:47.280 --> 0:29:51.760
<v Speaker 2>So for you, a trial lawyer like yourself, in your

0:29:51.800 --> 0:29:56.560
<v Speaker 2>own words one most of them. You know, evidence is

0:29:56.560 --> 0:29:59.520
<v Speaker 2>not handed to you Mobley on a silver platter on

0:29:59.640 --> 0:30:02.920
<v Speaker 2>top of Christmas tree. You have to find it. You

0:30:02.960 --> 0:30:05.800
<v Speaker 2>have to investigate it. And that is the point of

0:30:05.880 --> 0:30:11.280
<v Speaker 2>this timeline from the occasion Navy, they're giving us a plethora,

0:30:12.120 --> 0:30:15.800
<v Speaker 2>a corner ucopia of evidence for us to start with.

0:30:15.920 --> 0:30:18.080
<v Speaker 2>What don't waste another minute?

0:30:18.120 --> 0:30:19.800
<v Speaker 1>Don't do it a rabbit hole.

0:30:19.920 --> 0:30:22.360
<v Speaker 7>It takes you down a rabbit hole information that may

0:30:22.400 --> 0:30:23.200
<v Speaker 7>not be reliable.

0:30:23.480 --> 0:30:25.880
<v Speaker 3>The best thing to do with the who was paying you?

0:30:25.920 --> 0:30:29.800
<v Speaker 2>Because it ain't me, We don't pay yes, rabbit hole,

0:30:29.920 --> 0:30:34.400
<v Speaker 2>my rear end, objection, my rear end, a rabbit hole.

0:30:35.160 --> 0:30:37.560
<v Speaker 2>That's like you get a list of witnesses and go, yeah,

0:30:37.560 --> 0:30:38.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't have their addresses.

0:30:38.680 --> 0:30:39.120
<v Speaker 6>Screw it.

0:30:40.320 --> 0:30:43.280
<v Speaker 2>You have to find them. You have to find the

0:30:43.560 --> 0:30:45.680
<v Speaker 2>people that took these pictures. You have to find the

0:30:45.720 --> 0:30:48.040
<v Speaker 2>people that were on those boats. After you idea the boats,

0:30:48.120 --> 0:30:50.360
<v Speaker 2>then you have to take them one by one by

0:30:50.640 --> 0:30:54.120
<v Speaker 2>one and interview you know what. I'm sending him to

0:30:54.160 --> 0:30:56.080
<v Speaker 2>the corner and let him think about what you just said.

0:30:56.920 --> 0:30:59.360
<v Speaker 2>Trash her. That's a tiny taste of what you're about

0:30:59.400 --> 0:31:03.080
<v Speaker 2>to get. Hey, Caitlin Becker joining US senior national correspondent,

0:31:03.160 --> 0:31:09.440
<v Speaker 2>New York Post, star of ny Postcast. That's her podcast. Caitlin,

0:31:09.880 --> 0:31:12.360
<v Speaker 2>what do you make of the photos of the timeline

0:31:12.360 --> 0:31:15.400
<v Speaker 2>created this far by the United caj Navy. Come on,

0:31:15.600 --> 0:31:19.000
<v Speaker 2>it's something. We've got something. We're not getting anything from

0:31:19.040 --> 0:31:21.240
<v Speaker 2>the government. We don't have the autopsy, we don't have

0:31:21.280 --> 0:31:23.920
<v Speaker 2>any information nothing, They've gone radio silent.

0:31:24.120 --> 0:31:27.880
<v Speaker 5>It's exceptionally exceptionally helpful to have these things laid out

0:31:27.880 --> 0:31:31.600
<v Speaker 5>in this way, with coordinates and times and pulling in

0:31:31.640 --> 0:31:35.200
<v Speaker 5>some of the relevant social media information. While also noting

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:37.880
<v Speaker 5>that it hasn't been verified, it's giving us, I think,

0:31:37.920 --> 0:31:41.400
<v Speaker 5>the most comprehensive timeline that we could possibly have. I

0:31:41.440 --> 0:31:43.400
<v Speaker 5>mean not to push back because I feel like you

0:31:43.440 --> 0:31:46.160
<v Speaker 5>pushed back so much on that board man, But the

0:31:46.240 --> 0:31:49.320
<v Speaker 5>rabbit hole is the Internet. The rabbit hole is reading

0:31:49.440 --> 0:31:54.280
<v Speaker 5>every single person's theory. This is concrete information, and when

0:31:54.280 --> 0:31:57.840
<v Speaker 5>it's not concrete, it says this hasn't been verified. This

0:31:57.920 --> 0:32:00.560
<v Speaker 5>is at least giving me, from an investigative import as

0:32:00.560 --> 0:32:04.960
<v Speaker 5>a journalist, somewhere to focus my efforts, to focus my search.

0:32:05.120 --> 0:32:07.360
<v Speaker 5>The thing that stands out to me are all of

0:32:07.400 --> 0:32:10.240
<v Speaker 5>the people, like you said, potential witnesses, but also how

0:32:10.320 --> 0:32:13.680
<v Speaker 5>similar everyone is dressed. They're all in bathing suits, and

0:32:13.880 --> 0:32:16.000
<v Speaker 5>all the boats look pretty similar to me too, So

0:32:16.120 --> 0:32:19.280
<v Speaker 5>that to me indicates that someone who's saying I saw

0:32:19.320 --> 0:32:21.440
<v Speaker 5>this person on this boat, I saw that person on

0:32:21.480 --> 0:32:24.600
<v Speaker 5>that boat might not be super clear on that because

0:32:24.640 --> 0:32:27.280
<v Speaker 5>as I'm looking at this image, everybody kind of looks

0:32:27.280 --> 0:32:28.920
<v Speaker 5>the same. All the boats kind of look the same,

0:32:29.200 --> 0:32:31.800
<v Speaker 5>which does muddy the waters even more and makes you

0:32:31.960 --> 0:32:32.760
<v Speaker 5>talking to them.

0:32:32.840 --> 0:32:35.560
<v Speaker 2>So I've got to work with you before I put

0:32:35.640 --> 0:32:39.400
<v Speaker 2>you on the stand. Girl, ah knew you are not

0:32:39.520 --> 0:32:41.680
<v Speaker 2>getting up there and saying they all look the same

0:32:41.760 --> 0:32:47.440
<v Speaker 2>to me. No, we would get the name of the boats,

0:32:47.880 --> 0:32:50.360
<v Speaker 2>we would find who was out on the boat that

0:32:50.600 --> 0:32:53.760
<v Speaker 2>day from its owner, and I would ask them who's

0:32:53.800 --> 0:32:56.840
<v Speaker 2>on the boat. I would not rely no offense on

0:32:56.880 --> 0:33:00.960
<v Speaker 2>your boozy eye sight from thirty yards away. Okay, no offense.

0:33:00.720 --> 0:33:03.080
<v Speaker 6>Cans Neither would I. Neither would I.

0:33:05.160 --> 0:33:08.000
<v Speaker 2>But there are ways to contrary to what Mobley just

0:33:08.080 --> 0:33:11.520
<v Speaker 2>blurt about, there are ways to find these witnesses and

0:33:11.640 --> 0:33:15.959
<v Speaker 2>nail them down. If that photo is Nolan Wells and

0:33:16.080 --> 0:33:19.880
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't look like Nolan to me, then he's on

0:33:19.920 --> 0:33:26.200
<v Speaker 2>the island at seven pm. Okay. Now, let me remind

0:33:26.480 --> 0:33:30.360
<v Speaker 2>everybody that the guys on the boat, the Triton, with

0:33:30.440 --> 0:33:35.840
<v Speaker 2>no one, they're not charged with anything. They are presumed innocent,

0:33:37.240 --> 0:33:39.760
<v Speaker 2>So don't be starting up the death threats and all

0:33:39.840 --> 0:33:43.719
<v Speaker 2>that on them. We need them interviewed separately. If they

0:33:43.720 --> 0:33:46.840
<v Speaker 2>hadn't already been, who knows what we can learn from them.

0:33:46.920 --> 0:33:51.280
<v Speaker 2>Don't attack them. I want you to hear what one

0:33:51.320 --> 0:33:54.440
<v Speaker 2>of them said though about the mysterious Katie.

0:33:54.840 --> 0:33:58.680
<v Speaker 9>I didn't wake up again until a little after eleven o'clock,

0:33:59.200 --> 0:34:03.560
<v Speaker 9>and that was to my brother coming in the room

0:34:03.600 --> 0:34:06.640
<v Speaker 9>and being like, hey, we're trying to get ahold of you.

0:34:06.800 --> 0:34:09.960
<v Speaker 9>Warren gets on the phone and he's just like, hey, man, uh,

0:34:10.120 --> 0:34:12.479
<v Speaker 9>he was like, hey, have you talked to Nolan anything else?

0:34:12.520 --> 0:34:14.040
<v Speaker 9>I was like, no, I haven't talked to him. Man,

0:34:14.080 --> 0:34:16.319
<v Speaker 9>he was with that girl last time I knew. And

0:34:16.360 --> 0:34:18.520
<v Speaker 9>he was like okay. He was like he was like, man,

0:34:18.560 --> 0:34:19.840
<v Speaker 9>we can't get a hold of him. We don't know

0:34:19.840 --> 0:34:23.000
<v Speaker 9>where he's at. I was like, man, it's Nolan. He's

0:34:23.040 --> 0:34:25.359
<v Speaker 9>probably just out somewhere with that girl. Like, get ahold

0:34:25.400 --> 0:34:26.600
<v Speaker 9>of the girl. You'll probably find Nolan.

0:34:26.719 --> 0:34:29.320
<v Speaker 2>Okay, right there, I'm getting a red flag. That's from

0:34:29.680 --> 0:34:35.200
<v Speaker 2>the Officer Tatum podcast. Who joined us recently? That girl,

0:34:36.239 --> 0:34:39.440
<v Speaker 2>the mysterious Katie, Remember nobody who knew who she was?

0:34:39.480 --> 0:34:43.520
<v Speaker 2>But then later Dave Matt do we learn that one

0:34:43.560 --> 0:34:45.600
<v Speaker 2>of the guys on the boat had been texting with

0:34:45.680 --> 0:34:48.759
<v Speaker 2>her and new full well who it was. Where did

0:34:48.800 --> 0:34:50.000
<v Speaker 2>the name Katie come from?

0:34:50.160 --> 0:34:53.600
<v Speaker 3>Katie was known to the at least one person in

0:34:53.640 --> 0:34:55.839
<v Speaker 3>the group, and that leads you to believe there were

0:34:55.880 --> 0:34:59.680
<v Speaker 3>certainly more. There were a number of comments publicly made

0:35:00.160 --> 0:35:04.799
<v Speaker 3>by friends of Nolan that backtracking claiming they didn't know

0:35:04.840 --> 0:35:07.960
<v Speaker 3>who Katie was, didn't had never seen her before, And

0:35:07.960 --> 0:35:10.680
<v Speaker 3>then you find out, yeah, well not only did they

0:35:10.719 --> 0:35:14.040
<v Speaker 3>know her, but they were texting around about her. So

0:35:14.600 --> 0:35:17.200
<v Speaker 3>there's a lot of missing information here, Nancy. And it's

0:35:17.239 --> 0:35:19.719
<v Speaker 3>why you said all along, why are these guys not

0:35:19.800 --> 0:35:20.719
<v Speaker 3>on a polygraph?

0:35:21.120 --> 0:35:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Marie?

0:35:22.200 --> 0:35:25.160
<v Speaker 4>Just because we're having a lot of people coming up

0:35:25.160 --> 0:35:28.200
<v Speaker 4>with a lot of different theories. I agree with Caitlin.

0:35:28.719 --> 0:35:32.239
<v Speaker 4>Not every theory deserves the breath of air. It's not

0:35:32.600 --> 0:35:36.920
<v Speaker 4>all true. I think it could confuse the search for

0:35:37.200 --> 0:35:41.040
<v Speaker 4>justice when we're entertaining every single person who posts every

0:35:41.080 --> 0:35:44.120
<v Speaker 4>single theory, even when it makes no sense. And I

0:35:44.200 --> 0:35:47.840
<v Speaker 4>have to bring my friend out of probation and say

0:35:47.840 --> 0:35:50.520
<v Speaker 4>that you can't you go according to.

0:35:50.600 --> 0:35:52.880
<v Speaker 2>Every single piece of information you get.

0:35:53.120 --> 0:35:57.920
<v Speaker 4>It has to make sense to warrant the investigators taking

0:35:58.000 --> 0:36:01.040
<v Speaker 4>time to investigate. And the fact that they're not sharing

0:36:01.080 --> 0:36:04.680
<v Speaker 4>with us it doesn't necessarily mean that they're not doing

0:36:04.719 --> 0:36:07.239
<v Speaker 4>it all. There's no law that says they have to

0:36:07.280 --> 0:36:09.520
<v Speaker 4>share everything they're finding out with the public.

0:36:09.880 --> 0:36:13.240
<v Speaker 2>What you're seeing now is a post maade by Katie's sister.

0:36:13.800 --> 0:36:17.280
<v Speaker 2>Katie had a convo, assumed no one was getting ready

0:36:17.400 --> 0:36:20.760
<v Speaker 2>to get on the boat. He came out in Katie

0:36:20.760 --> 0:36:25.000
<v Speaker 2>made a home on another boat. Katie assumed the friends

0:36:25.560 --> 0:36:30.800
<v Speaker 2>telling him get on, get on, wouldn't have left without him. Okay,

0:36:31.000 --> 0:36:34.239
<v Speaker 2>so he says, I'm going back with my friends. She

0:36:34.360 --> 0:36:38.480
<v Speaker 2>thinks he got on the boat. The mystery girl Wells

0:36:38.520 --> 0:36:45.320
<v Speaker 2>reportedly stayed behind to speak with has been identified now.

0:36:46.000 --> 0:36:49.080
<v Speaker 2>At the get go, we were told no one knew

0:36:49.080 --> 0:36:52.560
<v Speaker 2>who she was. He had never met her before. He

0:36:52.640 --> 0:36:55.880
<v Speaker 2>had just met her and was talking to her. But

0:36:56.000 --> 0:37:01.680
<v Speaker 2>her sister provides a different account of what happened. Whenever

0:37:01.760 --> 0:37:06.800
<v Speaker 2>I see a conflict in the evidence, I have a problem.

0:37:08.760 --> 0:37:13.000
<v Speaker 2>This is all unfolding as we go to air tonight.

0:37:14.440 --> 0:37:20.560
<v Speaker 2>We wait for that toxicology report, We wait for the

0:37:20.640 --> 0:37:26.680
<v Speaker 2>autopsy to be revealed, We wait for a witness list

0:37:26.760 --> 0:37:29.960
<v Speaker 2>to be produced. At this hour reports a green jury

0:37:30.120 --> 0:37:35.440
<v Speaker 2>is convening to amass evidence, much the way the Cajun

0:37:35.520 --> 0:37:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Navy did. If you know or think you know anything

0:37:40.480 --> 0:37:44.200
<v Speaker 2>regarding this case, dial two two eight seven sixty nine

0:37:44.600 --> 0:37:50.160
<v Speaker 2>three zero six three two two eight seven six nine

0:37:50.560 --> 0:37:55.279
<v Speaker 2>three zero six three. There's been a lot of questions

0:37:55.480 --> 0:37:59.920
<v Speaker 2>regarding this number. That is the number for law enforcement.

0:38:01.160 --> 0:38:05.279
<v Speaker 2>We remember an American hero, Deputy Sheriff Bradley Link Link

0:38:05.320 --> 0:38:10.319
<v Speaker 2>County Sheriff's Florida, just twenty eight gunned down in the

0:38:10.360 --> 0:38:15.480
<v Speaker 2>line of duty, leaving behind a wife now widow, Brittany

0:38:16.560 --> 0:38:21.520
<v Speaker 2>American hero Deputy Sheriff Bradley Link. Thank you to our guest,

0:38:21.560 --> 0:38:24.560
<v Speaker 2>but especially to you for being with us tonight as

0:38:24.600 --> 0:38:27.920
<v Speaker 2>we search for the truth. Aside from all the noise

0:38:28.200 --> 0:38:36.680
<v Speaker 2>and the threats, the falsities, the enhancements, the alterations, the

0:38:36.680 --> 0:38:43.040
<v Speaker 2>truth is there and we will find it. Nancy Gray

0:38:43.080 --> 0:38:45.000
<v Speaker 2>signing off for tonight, but I'll see tomorrow night, and

0:38:45.160 --> 0:38:46.759
<v Speaker 2>until then, good night.
