Missing Boy’s Stepfather in Court Monday

The stepfather of a missing Germantown boy will appear in a North Carolina court Monday to face charges in his ex-wife’s murder. Curtis Lopez is accused of beating and stabbing 51-year-old Jane McQuain to death.

Lopez was arrested in Charlotte, North Carolina last week after detectives tracked McQuain’s missing SUV to a hotel there. Meanwhile McQuain’s son, 11-year-old William McQuain is still missing.

Friends, family, classmates and teammates are gathering today to start their own search party in the Germantown neighborhood where the McQuain’s lived. Those who organized the search say they just can’t sit idly by.

“Jane would definitely be doing this for any of us if she was here,” Roger Anderson, a search organizer, told News4’s Derrick Ward. “Unfortunately since she’s not here, we are picking up that slack and doing it for her. We’re all parents, so we definitely understand.”
