Two illegal immigrants are accused of the rape of a Telford woman after a night of drinking last week.


Darwin Pinoth Leonel Ordonez, 27, a Honduran native, and Rudi Estuardo Dvarte Espino, 24, a Guatemalan native, met the 21-year-old woman at Cheers and Beers bar about 1 a.m. March 1 and soon after took her to their home, police said.

There they molested her despite her pleas that they stop, according to police. Ordonez and Espino are being held in Montgomery County prison on $300,000 bail apiece.


Police said the woman had gone to the bar about 1 a.m., spoke to some friends and met Ordonez and Espino.

They invited her back to their home to watch a movie.

She said she would, but she specifically said she was not going to have sex with them, police said she later told them.

Investigators said she added that the two men said that was not their intention.


They left the bar between 1:50 a.m. and 2 a.m. and she drove them down the street to 222 North Main St. They went up to a second-floor apartment bedroom and turned on the television.


At that point, Espino grabbed and fondled her, according to court records. She told police she resisted, but Ordonez also grabbed her and began kissing her face, neck and elsewhere.


Espino forced her out of her clothing while Ordonez continued the attack, according to police. She told police Espino attempted to have intercourse with her but couldn't, according to court records.


The woman told police she remembered seeing the men videotaping the incident on a cellphone as she was fondled.


She was able to break free and pull up her pants, police said. She attempted to leave, but the men blocked the doorway at first, police said.

She yelled they had raped her, but they tried to quiet her because other people were in the apartment sleeping, they said.

She slipped past and ran out to her car and locked it, police said. The two men were banging on her car window asking her to stay, according to court records.


The next day police searched the apartment and seized a cellphone.

Espino and Ordonez were arrested.

A third man living in the apartment reportedly told police that a woman had been there the night before and left upset.


A hearing on the rape charges is scheduled for next month.
