43:38Now PlayingIt’s been over 2 months since Lynette Hooker vanished in the Bahamas without a trace. Her husband of 25 years, Brian Hooker, claims the last time he saw his wife was when she allegedly fell overboard the couple’s 8-foot hard bottom dinghy, on the way back to the sailboat the couple had been sailing and living on. Brian claims he and Lynette encountered rough weather and choppy sea that forced Lynette overboard, with winds allegedly separating them instantly – leaving Brian unable to rescue his wife. Brian was found washed up on shore, miles away, at 4am, after he claims he was forced to physically paddle the dinghy - due Lynette falling overboard with the engine key. Days after Lynette went missing, Brian Hooker was taken into custody by the Royal Bahamas Police, but released without charges, and has continued to maintain his no wrongdoing. Dr. Phil speaks with Lynette's daughter, Karli, and her mother, Darlene, who claim they are skeptical of Brian's story, and share new details as to why.
