Cole’s Uncle Moses Asks for No “Unfounded Speculations”
Before Cole Brings Plenty’s body was found, his uncle and Yellowstone actor Moses Brings Plenty took to his Instagram page in a plea to find the student and actor. He shared a missing person’s picture and a message reading: “It has been suggested that Cole is on the run, but there is no evidence to support this claim, and we urge everyone to refrain from making unfounded speculations. It’s important to let the legal system determine truth and justice. Assigning guilt because someone hasn’t been found is not the due process to which each of us has a right.”
