This post is mainly for white folks to consider.
I want to share something that may help you understand the reaction from Black folks who immediately looked at the Nolan Wells story and thought, “Something is foul here.”
This isn’t proof that foul play occurred. It’s context.
I live in Southern California, not the South. Our son went to a diverse private high school.
Whenever he was invited to a party, especially at the home of a white girl, our phone would ring.
Another Black parent would call and ask, “Do you know that family? Are they good people? Are you letting your son go?”
Not sure why we were the designated check-in family, but we were. My wife would get the calls.
It’s not paranoia. It comes from generations of experience and a need to protect our sons.
Many Black families grow up with the understanding that one bad situation, one false accusation, or one moment where your word isn’t believed can change a young Black man’s life forever.
We raised our son to be respectful, but we also raised him to be careful.
So when you see the reaction from Black people to the Nolan Wells case, understand that it comes from a long history of lived experience, not from nowhere.
You don’t have to agree with that perspective, but it’s important to understand where it comes from.
Black people, stop assuming your kids are safe just because they’re hanging around white folks 🤦🏾♂️

Pour one out for the Spirit flight attendants today. When an airline goes under, they lose their seniority which when you're an FA is your entire career. If they want to go to a new airline, they have to start at the very bottom.
@ZabelAlexa58265 Dennis also goes by Chirpy. Wonder why he went *allegedly* missing on 2/10…same day the porch perp video was released?
Go fund me was started for him on 2/21, after being found in ICU after being missing for 5 days (allegedly, according to the GFM started by his cousin Felicia)
I now have two sources confirming that one of the letters sent to the media in the Nancy Guthrie case allegedly states the sender apologized, claiming they did not realize how serious her heart condition was and that she has “gone to be with God.”
According to these sources, investigators believe the message came from the same individuals who previously demanded Bitcoin, though this latest letter reportedly made no demands and was framed solely as an apology.
While this has been validated by two independent sources, it has not been publicly released or confirmed by the media.
Savannah Guthrie says the speculation that someone in her family is responsible is "unbearable and piles pain upon pain. There are no words. No one took better care of my mom than my sister and brother in law. No one protected my mom more than my brother."
Updated Timeline and Description in Search for William “Neil” McCasland
The Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office (BCSO) continues the missing person investigation into the disappearance of 68-year-old William “Neil” McCasland, last known to have been at or near his residence in the area of Quail Run Court NE on the morning of Friday, February 27, 2026. A Silver Alert remains in effect, and Mr. McCasland remains missing.
As previously stated, Mr. McCasland is a retired U.S. Air Force general. BCSO is the lead investigative agency and continues to coordinate with partner agencies in support of investigative follow up and search operations, including the FBI Albuquerque Field Office when tools, tactics, or techniques can assist. Search resources are coordinated through the New Mexico Department of Public Safety and New Mexico State Police Search and Rescue system, with volunteer search teams assisting as requested. Tomorrow marks two weeks since his disappearance.
BCSO is releasing the following verified timeline to provide clarity on what is known. On February 27 at approximately 10:00 a.m., a repairman was at the residence and interacted with Mr. McCasland. At approximately 11:10 a.m., Mrs. McCasland Wilkerson left the home for a medical appointment. At approximately 12:04 p.m., she returned home and Mr. McCasland was not there. His phone, prescription glasses, and wearable devices were located at the residence. Mrs. McCasland Wilkerson began attempting to locate Mr. McCasland and contacted family and friends. At approximately 3:07 p.m., she reported him missing and the investigation began immediately.
As the investigation has progressed, BCSO has identified items believed to be unaccounted for from the residence. Investigators believe Mr. McCasland may have been wearing the shirt shown in the attached photo. The photo depicts Mr. McCasland wearing a light green, long sleeve button-up outdoor shirt. Additional items believed to be missing include his hiking boots, wallet, and a .38 caliber revolver with a leather holster.
Investigators also located a gray U.S. Air Force sweatshirt approximately 1.25 miles east of the residence on Saturday, March 7. The item was collected and processed. No blood was detected during initial processing, and additional analysis is pending. The sweatshirt has not been confirmed by family or friends to be associated with Mr. McCasland; however, it prompted an additional targeted search effort in the area.
BCSO continues to pursue all credible leads and follow up on every tip received. While there is currently no evidence indicating foul play, investigators are examining all available information as the case remains active. Investigators have expanded a neighborhood canvass to more than 700 homes, requesting security video and information. Additional search efforts have included drone operations, helicopter support, ground searches with Search and Rescue teams, and K 9 searches. To date, BCSO has not received any confirmed sighting or confirmed video showing Mr. McCasland leaving the area or indicating a direction of travel. Search efforts and investigative follow up are ongoing.
The Silver Alert was issued based on information available early in the investigation that indicated Mr. McCasland could be at some level of risk and that additional public assistance was needed to locate him. Due to privacy laws, BCSO will not release medical details or speculate about his state of mind.
BCSO is again asking anyone in the area to check and submit security camera footage from Friday, February 27 and Saturday, February 28, particularly between 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. in and around Quail Run Court NE and routes leading away from the neighborhood. If you were in the foothills or on trails February 27 to 28, please review any GoPro or phone footage and submit anything that may help.

@TimyNerdG@MattBlacInc It so easily can be performative - doesn’t mean they have it. When he’s even making his ig profile pic a pic in front of the Dior store, it points to fake and flashy. Real money isn’t often loud
