Lindsay Shiver called cops on estranged husband: Bodycam video
Georgia mom Lindsay Shiver called the cops on her estranged husband — who she has been accused of plotting to murder with the help of her Bahamian boyfriend — after he banned her from using their private jet to join him and their children on vacation in the Bahamas.
Shiver, 36, called 911 on July 16 to report a physical altercation which allegedly arose when her husband, former Auburn University football standout Robert Shiver said she wasn’t allowed to join the family at their second home on the island of Abaco.
Robert told Thomasville cops his ex had spent weeks planning a “couple’s trip” to the Florida Keys with her new beau and her abrupt change in plans to join them would “mess with the kids’ heads,” according to bodycam footage shared by true-crime podcast Plunder.
“That doesn’t mean you get aggressive and push me out of the way,” Lindsay snaps at Robert, who quickly interjects, insisting, “I did not push you or anything.”
“You can ask all the people that I know if I’m an aggressive or abusive person,” he then added.
The mom-of-three is accused of scheming to kill her husband of 13 years with the help of her new boyfriend Terrance Adrien Bethel, 28, and alleged assassin Farod Newbold Jr., 29.
During the July 16 incident, a female police officer told the couple they should go separate ways and not vacation together, later telling Lindsay that she would also need greater proof for the police to take action.
“I mean if you get video footage, you have surveillance cameras, you have something that I can look at and say, ‘Yes, he put his hands on you,’” the officer told her.
In the days following the pair each independently headed to the Bahamas, where Lindsay was arrested July 21.
The alleged murder plot unraveled on July 20 when Bahamian police began investigating a break-in at the waterfront bar where Bethel worked.
Cops examined her new beau’s phone and found text messages that allegedly referenced the plan to murder Shiver at his wife’s behest.
An attorney representing the trio dismissed the gravity of the situation, telling The Post Shiver’s alleged accomplices were never close to executing the plan and the matter was blown out of proportion.
“Those young boys were not capable of doing that,” their attorney said following her release from Nassau’s notorious Fox Hill prison after a grueling 19-day stint.
Both Bethel and Newbold are now free on bail after posting $20,000 bond, but have to wear electronic monitoring tags and report to a Bahamanian police precinct three times a week.
Shiver must also do the same — a requirement of her $100,000 bail agreement.
On Friday, the mom-of-three told The Post she’d been advised not to talk as the case progresses, saying, “It’s been hard. But I can’t speak about it.”
Shiver must also remain in Nassau while she awaits an October court date and is prohibited from contacting her estranged husband or coming within 100 feet of him.
Robert, identified as executive vice president of Senior Life Insurance Company in Thomasville, is seeking sole custody of their sons.
Divorce records show he cut Shiver off from the family home in the exclusive Bahamian enclave of Baker’s Bay and barred her from using the family’s private jet during their divorce, proceedings for which are ongoing.
