Teen Breakup Ends in Murder

Lily Silva-Lopez tries to break up with her boyfriend of six months, but Jovanni Sirio-Cardona is not ready to give up the relationship.

He responds by threatening the girl. He puts a gun barrel in her mouth and tells the teen that they are not breaking up. Lily Silva-Lopez confides in a cousin about the threats and the cousin tells Silva-Lopez's mother.

Greely police respond to a domestic violence complaint when Lily Silva-Lopez tells police that Sirio-Cardona had punched her in the face and hurt her arm. Weeks later, Silva-Lopez is shot multiple times in the hallway of her home, then dragged back into her room.
