Georgia woman, alleged lover & hitman arrested in Nassau for plot to kill husband

Thomasville resident Lindsay Shiver is under arrest after Bahamian Police uncovered a plot crafted by her and two men to kill her estranged husband, Robert Shiver.

According to Bahamas Court News, police arrested Shiver, 36, along with her lover Terrance Bethel, 28, of Guana Cay, Abaco and hitman Farron Newbold Jr., 28, of the Bahamas. Bahamian police say they uncovered the plot on July 16, while searching the phone and social media app of a suspected burglar.

A source familiar with the investigation said the Shivers have a home in the Bahamas, where Lindsay first began an affair with Bethel. Upon Robert finding out about the affair, he filed for divorce. That is when Lindsay, Bethel and and Newbold Jr. concocted a plan to murder Robert.

Authorities are currently holding Lindsay, Bethel and Newbold Jr. in jail. They were not required to enter a plea and have to return to court October 5.

Thank you for weighing in! I was confused about jurisdiction issues.

It gets very difficult in international cases for sure. And I know little about Bahamian law. But this was a crime that was to take place IN the Bahamas, so I think their jurisdiction will play, She traveled there frequently. The Bahamians are fighting crime right now like they haven't had to see for a long time. It used to be a very peaceful and safe place, but things changed covid forced them to bring in a lot of workers from around the Caribbean. They are a very conservative country. I think they will (and should) press this case to a conviction. THey just can't allow their nation to be seen as a lawless playground.

Glad to know things are tightening up and they are taking crimes seriously there now.

Judge upholds Shiver’s bail despite monitor complaints​

FORMER Georgia beauty queen Lindsay Shiver, who is accused of conspiring with two men in Abaco to kill her husband in 2023, had her bail upheld by a Supreme Court justice yesterday after prosecutors alleged her monitoring device had been malfunctioning for 126 days.

The prosecution had applied to have Shiver’s bail revoked for allegedly failing to comply with the conditions of her electronic monitoring.

The application was dismissed by Senior Justice Cheryl Grant-Thompson.

Justice Grant-Thompson found that Shiver had called in while the device was malfunctioning, as requested by monitoring company Migrafil.

The court found that Shiver did not pose a flight risk and had complied with her bail conditions.

However, Justice Grant-Thompson told Shiver that she must adhere to the terms of her bail and contact Migrafil when requested.

Addressing Shiver’s complaints about the monitoring device, Justice Grant-Thompson said it would be replaced that day with a slimmer, more comfortable device. She said she hoped the replacement would resolve Shiver’s concerns as well as the “tortured history of malfunctioning”.

Justice Grant-Thompson said the device was not a fashion statement but was designed to track the accused.

She said telephone calls to the monitoring company alone would not suffice and that electronic monitoring would remain in place.

Shiver’s trial is scheduled for later this year.

Seems like the monitoring company is in need of monitoring.
