On Thursday, July 9, Chancery Judge Ashlee Cole took to Facebook with a message for the public, and a few screenshots. Furthermore, Judge Cole wrote, “We have decided that we will not be speaking to the press at this time. The Media is not the appropriate forum to further elaborate on the facts of July 4, 2026. We realize that the truth will not stop the calls for the death of our small children.”
“We have not had the opportunity to speak to the Wells-Wonsley family or their attorney. However, we are willing to directly communicate with attorney Ben Crump and the Wells-Wonsley family,” she continued. “We will provide them with all the information known to us so their family can rest and properly mourn. We also want to know what happened to Nolan. We will do everything within our power to assist Nolan’s family in their quest for answers.”
Chancery Judge Ashlee Cole Previously Spoke On The Death Of Nolan Xavier Wells
As The Shade Room previously reported, Chancery Judge Ashlee Cole initially made headlines when she shared a statement on the disappearance and death of Nolan Xavier Wells. On Tuesday, July 7, she took to Facebook, acknowledging her son, Warren Hudson, traveled to Horn Island with Wells on July 4.
Additionally, Judge Cole admitted that she had deactivated her social media due to the “heightened emotional state” online. At the time, she noted that she feared for her children’s safety due to images of them being circulated online.
Furthermore, she wrote that her family’s prayers were with Wells’ family. But she and her husband were not on Horn Island on July 4. And she believes her son “cooperated fully” with law enforcement.
“He saw Nolan last at around 3 pm on July 4th. They left around 4:30 pm when the boat was taking on water and they had an issue with the bilge pump. Nolan made a decision to stay on the island and return inland later with another group of friends,” she added.
Before concluding, the judge wrote that she hoped her post would redirect attention to Wells’ family.
What’s The Latest On The Case?
Most recently, one of Nolan Xavier Wells’ friends, Tracestin Shepherd, has come forward, addressing a viral photo of him. As The Shade Room previously reported, Ben Crump, the Wells family’s attorney, reposted a photo showing Wells at a pool party. Furthermore, the caption alongside it suggested it was taken back on the mainland. This, specifically suggesting Wells had made it back from Horn Island before ultimately being discovered there deceased.
After the photo gained traction, Shepherd shut down the speculation. Furthermore, he stated that the photo was taken on June 27, and not on July 5, per The Shade Room. Additionally, he suggested that Crump is taking “advantage” of the Wells family’s vulnerability. This, as Wells’ mom shared a message for those “joking” about her son’s death.
