Missing US Student Found Dead in Japan

James 'Weston' Higginbotham, a 20-year-old Auburn University student missing for days, was found dead in a mountainous area outside Kyoto, Japan.

His family confirmed the tragic news, though the cause of death is still under investigation.

This comes as the disappearance of Michigan woman Lynette Hooker in the Bahamas is now being investigated as a potential murder.

U.S. Coast Guard divers have resumed the search, following new digital forensic evidence that appears to contradict her husband's account.

These cases highlight the dangers faced by travelers abroad.
