Nolan Wells’ best friend says he didn’t understand the initial panic of others searching for him … because he just assumed he’d passed out on someone’s couch.
Warren Hudson laid out the hours after Nolan’s disappearance during an interview on “The Officer Tatum Show” … revealing one of his pals with whom he had returned from Horn Island got an agitated phone call around 12:30 AM on July 5 — hours after they’d last seen Nolan.
About 30 minutes later, Warren says a group of 10 people or so slammed open the door to the house where they were staying … clearly freaking out after not having heard from Nolan.
Warren says a dude he knew from high school was with this group … and he stepped outside with that guy — who he says told him he thought Nolan had probably just crashed on someone’s couch which Warren agreed with.
Warren notes Nolan had gotten intoxicated … so he figured Nolan was just sleeping it off somewhere.
He also notes one member of the group who he describes as a “mom” asked for Nolan’s phone.

Warren has made a series of revelations in the interview with Brandon Tatum — explaining why he didn’t go to the funeral and claiming he and his pals begged Nolan to leave Horn Island with them.
As you know … Nolan’s body was found two days after he went missing — and, while authorities have said he drowned, his family and their attorney, Ben Crump, have vehemently disagreed with the official narrative.
