Brian Hooker, 58, was detained by authorities on April 8, raising hopes of clarification. However, he was released by police five days later. Seu’s lawyer, Terrel Butler, argued to the press that authorities “didn’t have enough evidence” against him.

Apesar of release, Hooker remains the prime suspect in his wife’s disappearance, as stated by Comissária of Polícia Real of Bahamas, Shanta Knowles, to NBC News on April 13. Ele has not been accused of any crime to date and vehemently denies any involvement. Karli Aylesworth spent three hours interviewing the police. Ela wants to keep the case in the spotlight.
