Authorities in Grenada, along with St. Vincent and the Grenadines, fear the Virginia couple who disappeared from their yacht in the Caribbean may be dead. "It is presumed that Ralph Hendry and Kathy Brendel are deceased," Junior Simmons, a spokesman for the Royal St. Vincent and The Grenadines Police Force, said in a press conference Monday. Simmons said the three suspects accused of kidnapping and potentially killing Hendry and Brendel were in court Monday, where they pleaded guilty to four immigration-related charges.
