YUCCA VALLEY MAN ACCUSED OF ELDERLY ABUSE AGAIN

A Yucca Valley man was arrested Friday, accused of elder abuse again. According to a Sheriff’s report, Joseph Denillo, 44, went to a home in the 7600 block of Bannock Trail about 6:30 p.m. when he began arguing with a man and his wife. The couple locked themselves in the bedroom, and the report states that Denillo tried to force his way in. After an investigation, Joseph Denillo was arrested on suspicion of felony elder abuse, booked at the Morongo Basin Jail, with his bail set at $50,000. In August 2014, Joseph Denillo pleaded guilty to one count of elder abuse and was on probation.
