EXCLUSIVE: Months after his wife Lynette Hooker went missing, Brian Hooker has been living a calm and seemingly unbothered life in northern California.
Hooker, 58, was spotted by Fox News Digital outside a home in Citrus Heights, which is about 15 miles northeast of Sacramento.
Lynette, originally from Michigan, disappeared while the couple was on a sailboat vacation in the Bahamas in April.
Her daughter and the rest of her family have been waiting for any answers in her disappearance.
Brian has not been accused of any crime or wrongdoing. He was initially detained and questioned then released from Bahamian custody in April.

📸 Instagram: Lynette's disappearance. Hooker told investigators Lynette fell from a dinghy while the couple was making their way back to their sailboat, Soulmate, that fateful evening.
Four months later, he was seen last weekend walking dogs, taking walks, enjoying a cup of coffee in a garage, and even stopping to sift through neighborhood trash items on the side of the street.
He may be staying with a family member.
Hooker was snapped wearing a brown hat and khaki shorts while walking two small dogs.
Cameras also captured him sifting through people's trash on the side of a neighborhood street picking up items and walking away with them.
Hooker also appeared to be enjoying a cup of coffee inside his garage wearing a graphic tee that reads "Hellfire Club" from the show "Stranger Things."
He was also seen walking out of a store with his Marine Corps tattoo on full display.
When Fox News Digital asked about the recent sighting of Hooker, Darlene Hamlett, Lynette's mother, simply said, "I just want the truth to be told and justice for my daughter Lynette."
Fox News Digital has reached out to Hooker's attorney, Matthew Borgula.
