Warren Hudson sat down for an interview to recount the hours after leaving Horn Island on July 4. Mississippi officials are pushing back against outside voices in the investigation. Death threats have targeted multiple parties connected to the case.
Warren Hudson explained the boat trip from Horn Island turned chaotic due to water issues. After docking he went to a buddy's house then a July 4 party with fireworks and swimming.
Hudson said he grew concerned around 11 pm when no one had heard from Nolan Wells and called the Coast Guard. He confirmed the viral pool photo was taken June 27 not during the July 4 weekend.
Governor Tate Reeves stated that Ben Crump and Al Sharpton are stoking division for personal gain and blamed them for threats against officials and witnesses. The FBI is reviewing those threats while the state investigation continues toward a grand jury.
