NEW POLICY: Trump administration revokes over 6,000 passports from parents who owe $50,000 or more in unpaid child support.

Since the initiative launched in May, noncustodial parents have paid nearly $1.5 million in past-due support — with some making single payments exceeding $100,000 to get their passports back.

The State Department is now revoking roughly 1,000 passports per week, and officials say the threshold will be lowered.

The husband of a woman who was reported missing in the Bahamas after going overboard on a dinghy has been arrested, according to the Royal Bahamas Police Force.

Lynette Ho**er, 55, of Michigan, and her husband, Brian Ho**er, 58, had departed Hope Town on the Abaco Islands for Elbow Cay on Saturday, according to police.

The arrest comes after multiple sources told ABC News a criminal investigation had been opened into whether there was any wrongdoing in the case.

She demanded $50,000 a month. The court looked at the numbers. What happened next made legal history.

50 Cent was voluntarily paying Shaniqua Tompkins, the mother of his son Marquise, around $40,000 a month in child support. There was no court order. He was doing it informally. When she demanded $50,000 a month and took legal action to get it, 50 Cent did something most people don't expect: he took himself to family court and asked a judge to set the official amount.

The court reviewed his income, her expenses, and the child's actual needs. The interim award was set at $25,000 per month. After further review, the judge reduced it again to $6,700 per month, roughly $80,000 per year. That's an 83% reduction from what he had been paying voluntarily. His son Marquise later said publicly that $6,700 a month wasn't enough, which sparked its own debate online.

The case became one of the most widely discussed child support cases in entertainment history, often referenced as a cautionary example of what can happen when legal battles go too far.
