Christine Wonsley

Christine Wonsley is the mother of Nolan Xavier Wells, an 18-year-old from Ocean Springs, Mississippi. Nolan Wells went missing on July 4th after a boat trip with friends to Horn Island, a barrier island off the Mississippi Gulf Coast. While his friends returned home, Nolan did not, prompting his mother, Christine Wonsley, to report him missing and seek help on social media. This led to a two-day search that gained national attention. Tragically, Nolan Xavier Wells' body was discovered off the coast of Horn Island. In response to the circumstances surrounding her son's death, Christine Wonsley and her family have retained civil rights attorney Ben Crump. The family is seeking answers and legal representation amid the ongoing investigation into the events that led to Nolan's disappearance and death.
