California man arrested for allegedly sending bomb threat to judge in Nolan Wells' death case: docs

A California man named Joseph Alfredo Vasquez Dumarce has been arrested for allegedly sending bomb threats via Facebook Messenger to Judge Ashlee Cole, who presides over the case involving the disappearance of 18-year-old Nolan Wells. Wells went missing on July 4 during a boat trip to Horn Island, Mississippi, and his body was found two days later by a National Park Service ranger. Dumarce, from Sacramento, is charged with interstate transmission of a threatening communication. The threats included claims of a bomb being sent to Cole's office and descriptions of violent acts. Dumarce was identified through his Facebook email address and faces up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Judge Cole is also the mother of Warren Hudson, who was with Wells during the incident and has not been implicated in wrongdoing. Authorities noted that Wells had chosen to remain on Horn Island rather than return with Hudson.

California man charged with threatening judge in Nolan Wells case

A 27-year-old man from Sacramento, Joseph Alfredo Vasquez Dumarce, has been charged with sending threatening messages to Judge Ashlee Cole of Jackson County Chancery Court in Mississippi. The threats were reportedly sent via Facebook Messenger and included warnings about a package being delivered to her office. Dumarce was identified through digital evidence linked to his social media account and personal information. Judge Cole's son was part of the group that was with 18-year-old Nolan Wells during a July 4 boat trip to Horn Island, where Wells went missing. His body was later found by a National Park Service ranger. The case remains under investigation. Dumarce has a prior conviction for exposing himself to a minor and attempting to abduct a child. The Wells family has expressed frustration over the ongoing scrutiny and seeks the truth regarding their son's death.
