· Fox News
Newly released bodycam video shows the moment the U.S. Coast Guard Investigative Service seized Brian Hooker's sailboat "Soulmate" as it was being moved from the Bahamas back to the U.S. in May.
The release of footage follows a months-long investigation into the disappearance of Lynette Hooker, who vanished while on vacation with her husband Brian Hooker in the Bahamas in April.

She was reported missing on April 4 while boating near Elbow Cay in the Abaco Islands with her husband.
Brian has maintained that his wife fell from a dinghy at night and was swept away. Lynette's body has not been recovered.
The U.S. Coast Guard traveled to the Bahamas last month to conduct a dive search in the Sea of Abaco and land search with the help of a cadaver dog to try and find any trace of Lynette.
They returned to the U.S. with the dinghy Lynette was last seen on, which will be combed for clues.
A family friend and advocate for Lynette described her as the kind of person who was always there for others.
"She’s the kind of person anybody would be happy to be around in any occasion," the friend told Fox News Digital. "She’s the type of person after the party that sticks around to help clean up. She’s a person who shows up beforehand to help you set up. She is your go-to person when you need a friend."
Brian has not been seen or heard from since returning to the U.S. after he was initially questioned and released by Bahamian authorities.
Brian Hooker has not been charged with any crime or accused of wrongdoing.
