Lynette Hooker's husband was spotted living a quiet, seemingly unbothered life in northern California — walking dogs, sipping coffee in his garage, sifting through trash on the side of the road — four months after his wife vanished from their sailboat in the Bahamas. Brian Hooker, 58, was seen by Fox News Digital outside a home in Citrus Heights, about 15 miles northeast of Sacramento. He told investigators Lynette fell from a dinghy while the couple was returning to their sailboat, named Soulmate, during a vacation in April. He was initially detained and questioned by Bahamian authorities, then released. He has not been accused of any crime. The U.S. Coast Guard Investigative Service is leading the investigation into Lynette's disappearance. Her mother, Darlene Hamlett, says she just wants the truth and justice for her daughter.

EXCLUSIVE BREAKING MOMENTS AGO: United States Coast Guard and members of CGIS, United States Coast Guard Investigative Services, retrieved the dinghy belonging to Brian and Lynette Hooker. The dinghy is a key piece of evidence in the suspected murder of Lynette Hooker. Her husband, Brian, claims Lynette fell off the back of that dinghy on the way to their 46-foot Morgan sailboat “Soulmate“ on April 4th. The dinghy has been in the possession of the Royal Bahamian Police Force since Lynette disappeared almost 8 weeks ago. CGIS has wanted to examine the dinghy for forensic purposes, and thus, finally gaining access to it is a huge step forward in the investigation. The dinghy will be ferried out to the Coast Guard Cutter Margaret Norvell, which is positioned just off Elbow Cay in deeper water. This dinghy is now officially evidence in the suspected murder investigation.
