An American woman has been arrested and charged in the Bahamas for conspiring to kill her husband several months after the couple filed for divorce.
Lindsay Shiver, 36, of Thomasville, Georgia, is accused of unsuccessfully conspiring with two Bahamas natives to kill her husband, Robert Shiver, an insurance executive and former Auburn University football player.
Prosecutors allege the accused conspired to kill the husband on July 16 while on the Abaco Islands.
Defendants Terrance Adrian Bethel, 28, and Farron Newbold Jr., 29, are in police custody and face conspiracy to commit murder charges.
The three were flown to the capital, Nassau.
A Bahamian police source told CNN that lawmen successfully foiled the plot by acting on crucial information on a phone recovered during a separate criminal inquiry into a recent local business break-in.
According to the source, who spoke to CNN on condition of anonymity, written messages found on that phone indicated the existence of the sinister plot.
The identity of the phone's owner remains unclear.
