Mysterious Circumstances
It was no secret to anyone that Wood was "deathly afraid of water." Davern knew the last thing she would have done was take the dinghy out on her own.
Wagner told Davern not to call for help and to keep the boat's floodlights off. He was worried that they might draw attention to Wood's disappearance. Meanwhile, key witness Marilyn Wayne was only eighty feet away from the yacht. She heard a woman screaming around 11 in the evening.
