Fox News
The search continues for a 41-year-old British woman who went missing from a boat that was moored off the coast of the U.S. Virgin Islands earlier this month, but police now say the woman's boyfriend, an American man, has acquired a lawyer and will not allow them to search the vessel.
Virgin Islands police officers met with Bane around 2:30 a.m. on March 8 when he reported her missing. Officers performed an initial land search and told Bane to contact the U.S. Coast Guard, who did conduct a search of the vessel later that morning, according to the U.S. Virgin Islands Police Department. But Virgin Islands police now say that Bane lawyered up and has not allowed them to search the boat since Heslop went missing nearly two weeks ago. "Soon after reporting Ms. Heslop missing, Mr. Bane acquired the services of an attorney," a spokesperson for the police department said in a statement Friday. "Upon his attorney’s advice, Mr. Bane exercised his constitutional right to remain silent and denied officers’ requests to search the vessel."
