Here's Sydney Silvagni with some of our top stories this week:

We're learning from court transcripts that investigators tested a second male cruise passenger as a potential match to DNA recovered from Anna Kepner's rape kit. U.S. officials are now treating Lynette Hooker's Bahamas missing person case as a homicide. 5-year-old Daleza Fregoso is missing in Mexico after police say her father killed her mother in Los Angeles. An accused triple murderer in Hawaii arrested after members of the public spot him hiding in a vacant field. The man accused of infiltrating former state rep C. Wesley Morgan's home and killing his daughter to access his 'survival bunker', may eventually walk free again.
