Detectives have since charged Kevhaunne Williams, 26, of Beechfield Walk, Waltham Abbey, with kidnap and murder. He is due to appear before Chelmsford Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, the force said. Police said the investigation remains ongoing and a 24-year-old man and a 17-year-old boy, both from London, remain on police conditional bail. The force said it believed Jack was kidnapped in a black Mitsubishi which they say was stolen from an address in Loughton earlier that month. Detectives had previously appealed to the public for help to find Jack’s blue Louis Vuitton trainers, worth around £1,000. DCI Greg Wood, who is leading the investigation, previously said: “We believe Jack was taken and carried in a black Mitsubishi Outlander that was bearing the registration HY16 FZR – although this is not the vehicle’s true registration plate. Most read in The Sun “We know the vehicle was stolen from an address in Loughton on 3 June, and we are keen to hear from anyone who may have seen this vehicle between 3 June and 23 June, when we know it was abandoned in River Close, close to Fishers Close, in Waltham Cross. “We are equally keen to hear from anyone who may have seen the vehicle abandoned on this day. “We are also asking for help to find Jack’s Louis Vuitton blue trainers, which have not been recovered. “The trainers are worth in the region of £1,000 and believe someone will either be wearing them – perhaps with no knowledge of their prior owner – or attempting to sell them. “At the heart of this investigation is Jack and his loved ones. We are determined to provide answers for them, and I would again encourage anyone with information on the Mitsubishi Outlander or the blue Louis Vuitton trainers to please come forward.”
