PERV AND TEEN RAN AWAY TO DEATHS

Julio Espino, a 50 year old church caretaker, was molesting his ex-girlfriend's 13 year old granddaughter and convinced the teen to run away with him.  Instead Espino and Johanna Sierra were found fully clothed in the front seat of his 1989 Subaru wagon in a remote area of Upper Brookville on Tuesday dead from accidental carbon-monoxide poisoning.  Also in the car with them were apologetic notes about their escape plan.  Nassau County Detective Sgt. Herb Daub said of the letters, They knew what they were doing was wrong, but they were begging their families for forgiveness.
