Man charged in domestic violence murder sought
Germon Stevens, 44, is wanted for first-degree murder and for shooting a second person in a domestic violence incident, but he continues to evade law enforcement.

He killed Lothridge and shot Lothridge’s sister, with whom Stevens was in a relationship. He then fled in a vehicle that police found wrecked nearby.
The Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office charged Stevens on June 14 with first-degree murder, two counts of armed criminal action and two counts of domestic assault. KCPD has been unable to locate him.
