Search for missing woman in Bahamas

The couple, from Michigan, had been chronicling their sailing adventures on social media for several years before the incident occurred near Elbow Cay.

Brian Hooker's attorney stated that his client is 'completely heartbroken' and denies any wrongdoing.

However, his estranged stepmother has publicly urged him to 'tell the truth' about what happened on the boat.

The case has drawn national attention, with former FBI agents weighing in on the potential legal proceedings as the search enters its second week.
