Prosecutor: Mother killed in her sleep, boy bludgeoned with baseball bat

Montgomery County prosecutors say a Germantown woman’s estranged husband killed her in her sleep and beat her 11-year-old son to death with a baseball bat.

New details about the killings were disclosed at a Thursday bond hearing for 45-year-old Curtis M. Lopez, who is charged with first-degree murder in the slaying of 51-year-old Jane McQuain and it’s expected he’ll be charged in the killing of William McQuain, Lopez’s stepson.
