Did Down-Low Hubby Fake Disaster to Run Away with Secret Lover?
WHDH reports:
Crew of charter boat disappears on high seas off Florida; 2 passengers in federal custody
A boat trip that began as a routine charter to the Bahamas turned horribly wrong somewhere on the high seas when four crew members vanished and the two men who hired the vessel were plucked out of a life raft.
. . .
One of the passengers is wanted in his home state for allegedly stealing more than $92,000 in January from a Wal-Mart where he was an assistant manager. Kirby Logan Archer, 35, of Strawberry, Ark., also went AWOL from the Army four years ago.
. . .
Archer and Zarabozo paid $4,000 cash to charter the “Joe Cool” on Sunday to Bimini, Bahamas, where they told the boat’s operators they had female companions waiting for them. The Coast Guard says that GPS navigation devices on the boat show that it veered sharply south toward Cuba about halfway into the 50-mile trip.
Archer, a former military police investigator, had been stationed at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, during the 1990s, according to court records. He went AWOL in 2003 and received a “less-than-honorable discharge” as a result, according to Arkansas records from his 2005 divorce.
. . .
In court documents, [Archer’s ex-wife, Michelle Rowe] contended that her husband admitted to her that he was gay and had affairs with five or six men. Archer denied that, saying that one man mentioned by his ex-wife was merely a roommate and not a lover.
Court records also show that Archer has since remarried, to another woman named Michelle. In court Wednesday, Archer said he is now separated.
