Summary

Three days after Nolan Wells' body was found, Ben Crump flew to New York for a press conference with Al Sharpton. Then the circus moved to Mississippi, where Sharpton eulogized a boy he never knew. And this morning it landed in Chicago — where Crump announced the autopsy HE paid for from the stage of the NAACP Convention. Along the way he's picked up a band: Tyler Perry, Spike Lee, Terrell Owens, Hakeem Jeffries, and Stephen A. Smith. Jason Whitlock breaks down how a family's tragedy became a three-city traveling roadshow — and why the louder the circus gets, the further justice slips away. ➢ Show Outline 00:00 - The Emmett Till Playbook 01:00 - The Circus Begins 01:46 - What We Know About Nolan Wells 03:18 - The Tour Dates of the Circus 05:17 - Following the Money Trail 06:14 - The Assembled Band 07:20 - Stephen A.

0:00.0	Jesse Small, it must be on the way. They're about to dig up the grave of Emmett Teal and have him speak at one of these press conferences.
0:09.2	And that's literally what I think they're trying to make this Emmett Till 2.0.
0:15.0	But that was me 11 days ago. Before Ben Crump had booked a convention hall in Chicago, before Terrell Owens wrote his check, before Spike Lee and Tyler Perry signed on.
0:30.7	I told you they were going to run the Emmett Till play.
0:35.1	And this morning, they ran it.
0:37.1	They put that grieving mother on his stage at the
0:39.8	NAACP National Convention and dressed her in iconography. Oh man, I'm killing it. They dressed
0:49.8	her up like a martyr. Same script. Every single time. So let me tell you what this actually is,
0:57.1	because I've read this play before, too. There's a proverb, the first to speak seems right
1:04.4	until another comes and examines him. Hold on to that, because this week week a whole lot of famous people have been speaking first
1:14.6	and nobody.
1:16.1	Nobody has been examined yet.
1:20.5	An independent autopsy is a medical document.
1:23.3	So somebody explained to me why the findings got announced from a stage at a national convention in Chicago, 900 miles from where this young man died.
1:36.4	Since when does a coroner need a keynote slot?
1:40.0	Yeah, yeah. I'm Jason Whitlock, you're on a harmony. Thank you for joining me out of style. I want to do something today that has gone completely out of style. I want to
2:03.3	start with what we actually know before we get to what everybody feels. Here's what we know.
2:10.7	Nolan Wells, 18 years old, a college football player, went on a boat trip with friends to Horn Island
2:17.3	on the 4th of July.
2:19.5	Two days later, he was found dead near the last place he was seen.
2:25.2	The Jackson County Sheriff has said, on the record, there are no signs of foul play and
2:31.1	the investigation is ongoing.
