Former Auburn football player Robert Shiver’s wife was arrested in the Bahamas last week over an alleged plot to murder the ex-offensive lineman.
According to Bahamas Court News, 36-year-old Lindsay Shiver and two men were arrested after police discovered that they had made plans to kill Robert Shiver. One of the other men, 28-year-old Terrance Bethel, is reported to be Lindsay’s lover. The other man who was charged is 29-year-old Faron Newbold.
Police learned of the alleged plot, which was unsuccessful, while investigating a break-in at a bar in Guana Cay. The officers say the plan was detailed in WhatsApp messages that they discovered while searching the phone of a suspect in the break-in.
Sources familiar with the investigation told WTVY in Alabama that authorities believe Lindsay paid a hitman to kill Robert.
Robert Shiver was a long snapper at Auburn from 2006-2008. He and Lindsay are reportedly estranged.
