Feds plan new Bahamas search for Lynette Hooker after GPS data allegedly torpedoes husband’s story: source
Federal investigators are planning a new search for Lynette Hooker in the Bahamas after GPS data allegedly contradicted her husband's story. The search will focus on an area of the Sea of Abaco with waters reaching 25-foot depths. The renewed efforts are based on GPS data from Brian Hooker's phone, which was using a marine navigation app.
- ▪GPS data from Brian Hooker's device allegedly shows locations in the Sea of Abaco that have not yet been searched
- ▪The Hookers' boat, Soulmate, has been moved from Fort Pierce to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, for further investigation
- ▪Investigators are also working to extract data from devices aboard the vessel, including an infrared camera, that may contain additional clues surrounding Lynette Hooker's disappearance
