FILE - In this Aug. 29, 1991, file photo, Tommy Thompson, left, stands at the helm of the Arctic Explorer as Bob Evans, center, and Barry Schatz look on in Norfolk, Va. Thompson, a former deep-sea treasure hunter, is about to celebrate his fifth year in jail for refusing to disclose the whereabouts of 500 missing coins made from gold found in an historic ship wreck. Despite an investors lawsuit and a federal court order, Thompson still won't cooperate with authorities trying to find those coins, according to court records, federal prosecutors and the judge who found Thompson in contempt.
