Suspect Arrested In 2012 Murder Of 89-Year-Old Man Found Handcuffed Inside Corona Home
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- A Queens man has been arrested in connection with the 2012, murder of an 89-year-old man.
Harry Pacheco, 40, was charged with second degree murder on Friday.
Police say he killed 89-year-old Demaso Llano who was found dead and handcuffed inside of his Corona home in March, 2012.
Llano's body was found by his caretaker.
Long-time friend and neighbor, Jose Heredia, said Ilano's caretaker ran out of the home yelling and screaming.
"A fellow that I know came out from the house, screaming with his hands on his head, saying...'They killed Demaso, they killed Demaso.' I said 'Are you kidding?' He said 'No, I'm not kidding. I found him dead,'" Heredia said at the time.
Ilano and two partners established the El Mundo Supermarket on Junction Boulevard about 42 years ago after he arrived from Cuba.
