“I am confused. I do not think Rosi could just leave because she is very attached to her children,” said Claudia Reinoso, Hernandez’s sister, who lives in the Dominican Republic. “She loves them and it’s been too long. It seems suspicious that Rosi has not returned for her children.”
When Reinoso learned of the charges against York, she was shocked.
“I cannot believe Daniel would do that,” she said. “I always thought Daniel was a good man and step-father.”

When Reinoso asked York about her sister’s disappearance, he replied: “I have not heard from my wife. I really do not know what to say.
“The kids are doing good. (I’m) trying to be the best I can for them.”
In another message, York told Reinoso he believes his wife simply “moved to another city.”
“I know she has done this many times. Just not for this long,” York said. “Rosi knows the kids are loved and cared for and are with many family members of mine.
“I thought she might be in the Dominican Republic,” York added. “I know she needs this time for herself.”
