Lindsay Shiver, Bethel and Newbold were arrested July 21 in Abaco, Bahamas, and shipped to Nassau after police uncovered the alleged scheme in WhatsApp messages on the phone of a suspected burglar at Grabbers Bar and Grill on Great Guana Cay, as the Bahamas Court News reported at the time.
Lindsay’s attorney in the Bahamas, Ian Cargill, did not immediately respond to an inquiry from Fox News Digital.
