The arrested husband of missing American boater Lynette Hooker is still hopeful she’ll be found — and was trying to get back out to sea for his own search because he is “hopeless without her,” his lawyer said. Brian Hooker, 59, was taken into custody late Wednesday as a suspect in his 55-year-old wife’s disappearance after first reporting that she was swept away in rough seas when she fell from their dinghy during a sailing trip off the coast of the Bahamas over the weekend. As the search neared the week-long mark, his lawyer Terrel Butler said Hooker was still “hopeful” rescue crews could locate his wife.
