Wood died after she fell off a yacht on Nov. 28, 1981, according to her husband Roger Wagner. Her bruises were originally said to have been from her failed attempt to climb back on the boat.
Conflicting versions of what happened on the yacht shared by Wood, Wagner and their friend, actor Christopher Walken, have contributed to the mystery of how the actress died. Authorities have said Wagner is not a suspect in his wife's death.
Investigators re-opened the case last November but have released few details about its progress. They traveled to Hawaii to inspect the Splendour, the yacht the trio was aboard on the night of Wood's disappearance.
The renewed inquiry came after the boat's captain, Dennis Davern, told "48 Hours Mystery" and the "Today" show that he heard Wagner and Wood arguing the night of her disappearance and believed Wagner was to blame for her death.
Wagner wrote in a 2008 memoir that he and Walken argued that night. He wrote that Walken went to bed and he stayed up for a while, but when he went to bed, he noticed that his wife and a dinghy attached to the yacht were missing.
Wood was nominated for three Academy Awards during her lifetime. Her death stunned the world and has remained one of Hollywood's most enduring mysteries.
