That\u2019s all I\u2019m saying.\u201d Brian Hooker has consistently maintained that Lynette fell from a dinghy during a nighttime trip and was swept away by strong currents. Her body has never been recovered. The new claims come after U.S. Coast Guard investigators returned to the Bahamas to search the area with dive teams and a cadaver dog before taking the dinghy back to the United States for further forensic testing. The Coast Guard Investigative Service declined to comment, citing the ongoing investigation. Brian Hooker has not been charged with a crime or accused of wrongdoing. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=3279\">Neighbor Says Teen Stabbed Mom After Fight Over Her Facebook Posts<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read it at <span>Fox News Digital<\/span><\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The mother of a Michigan woman who vanished during a boating trip in the Bahamas has cast fresh doubt on the account of her daughter\u2019s disappearance, saying she now believes \u201cthere was foul play.\u201d Months after Lynette Hooker disappeared while vacationing with her husband, Brian Hooker, her mother, Darlene Hamlett, told Fox News Digital she [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":393,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3284","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-u-s-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
