Missing woman mystery in Bahamas

Investigators in the Bahamas are piecing together the suspicious disappearance of 55-year-old Lynette Hooker, who vanished from a dinghy near the Abaco Islands.

Her husband, Brian, remains in custody as police search their yacht for evidence of foul play.

The case has been complicated by Brian's own fall into the water during a police search, which resulted in a knee injury.

Family members have expressed fear that a lack of physical evidence may prevent charges from being filed, despite a history of domestic disputes between the couple.
