About this episode
The episode discusses the Lynette Hooker case, now treated as a suspected murder investigation, focusing on new evidence and the Coast Guard's search efforts.
Sources confirm the Lynette Hooker case is now being treated as a suspected murder investigation, and the search is zeroing in on new areas tied to Brian Hooker’s timeline, GPS data, and the story he has told since the night Lynette "vanished." The Coast Guard is returning to the Sea of Abaco with a dive team, CGIS investigators, an ROV, and Maggie the cadaver dog. And now, new details from boatyard surveillance video are raising even more questions about Brian’s behavior the morning he says he washed ashore without his wife. Ready to give Toups a try?
