- Lynette's mother, Darlene Hamlett, told ABC News she hopes "we find the truth" amid the investigation, while alleging the couple had a volatile relationship.
- Remaining in the Bahamas, Hooker maintains he will stay until his visa expires or is told to leave, though his attorney has prevented him from detailing the night his wife went overboard.
