On Tuesday, Mississippi-based attorney Gary Bufkin filed subpoenas to obtain information from accounts associated with the 18-year-old student athlete on Snapchat, WhatsApp, TikTok, Meta Platforms, and the location-tracking app Life360, according to the records reviewed by the Sun Herald.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Bufkin, a Ridgeland-based attorney from the law firm of Carroll Bufkin PLLC, is assisting prominent civil rights attorney Ben Crump in the independent investigation into the death of Wells after he failed to return home from a Fourth of July trip to Horn Island with friends.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Wells, who was Black, boated to Horn Island with at least three white friends. His friends returned to shore with his phone and told authorities that Wells stayed behind to talk to a girl and other friends. Two days later, his body was found off the northwest tip of the island.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Jackson County Sheriff\u2019s Department is heading up the investigation into Wells\u2019 death with assistance from Federal Bureau of Investigation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The FBI is also assisting in the investigation into alleged threats made against the Wonsleys, law enforcement, and friends and family of those associated with Wells the day he went missing.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Wells\u2019 mother, Christine Wells-Wonsley, is the administrator of her son\u2019s estate. She and her husband, Elmore Wonsley, hired Crump in the aftermath of their son\u2019s death.<\/p>\n
