A Florida man who reported his new wife missing while sailing in the Caribbean this spring has been charged with stealing as much as $100,000 in coins. The Palm Beach Post reports that the federal theft complaint against Lewis Bennett was made public Monday. Authorities later learned that Bennett had been first mate on a ship last year, when 617 collectible coins were stolen. The ship's owner identified Bennett's coins as those stolen. ———Information from: The Palm Beach (Fla.) Post, http://www.pbpost.com
