An Elsmere man, who fatally beat a senior citizen he believed molested his 5-year-old daughter, was sentenced this morning to 9 months in prison. Robert J. Fontanez Jr., 27, stood tall and calm as Superior Court Judge Joseph R. Slights III sentenced him. "The circumstances surrounding this crime were taken into consideration by the state," and the court, Slights told Fontanez. "Regardless of the circumstances...," Slights said, there was still no excuse for Fontanez to have taken the life of 77-year-old Bismark Vasquez.
