KAKE New spoke with the boy's father, Johnathan Hernandez. We agreed not to show his face. During our interview we asked him if Glass abused the child. We made him aware his family members reached out to us about the possible abuse.
"I'm sorry that they did and that really pisses me off. Only because it seems like it's about something else and it's not happening now," Hernandez said. "Now, if you want to bring that up later that's fine. That's a whole separate issue. I think it's taking away from what's happening and I don't appreciate it. Not from my family, not from strangers."
He says he still believes his son is somewhere alive and he is focused on finding him.
"Lucas is the sweetest, softest hearted, kindest little kid I ever met," he said. "I'm so proud to be able to be his father. I miss him very much. I love him very much and I just want him to come home."
