Timeline of Lynette Hooker Disappearance Shifts Toward Bahamas Investigation

55-year-old Lynette Hooker disappeared April 4 after reportedly falling from a dinghy while returning to her yacht Soulmate near Elbow Cay in the Bahamas. Her husband, Brian Hooker, 58, was detained for questioning and remains in custody as Bahamian investigators pursue a case that has shifted from a rescue to a recovery, with a parallel U.S. Coast Guard criminal probe underway. A flotation device was reportedly found, and Hooker’s daughter later raised past domestic-violence allegations, though authorities have not charged anyone. As of April 12, Hooker has not been found and the investigation continues.
