ROSEBURG, Ore. — The former stepmother of missing Portland boy Kyron Horman has gone to court to change her name.
Terri Lynn Moulton Horman, now living in Roseburg, filed a petition June 30 in Douglas County Circuit Court to change her name to Claire Stella Sullivan.
A hearing was set for Aug. 4.
The News-Review reports the person answering the phone number Horman listed on the petition hung up when a reporter identified herself.
No reason was listed in court papers for the name change.
Seven-year-old Kyron Horman vanished from school on June 4, 2010, after his stepmother dropped him off, leading to a massive search. Investigators have long focused on Terri Horman but have not named her as a suspect.
She and the boy’s father, Kaine Horman, have divorced.
