Man Convicted Of Murder, Feticide In Bartow Shootings

ACWORTH, GA — A Bartow County jury has convicted a Cobb County man charged in the shooting deaths of a couple and their unborn child more than two years ago.

Humberto Lobo Reneaud was convicted Thursday on two counts of malice murder, four counts of felony murder, feticide, two counts of aggravated assault, five counts of possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, said Cherokee Judicial Circuit District Attorney Rosemary Greene. The judge has scheduled Reneaud's sentencing to take place at a later date, she added.

Reneaud was arrested and charged by Bartow County sheriff's investigators with the murders of Seth Alexander Martin, 22, and Angelica Rojas Fischer, 21, and their unborn child on July 18, 2016, at the couple's home in the 4600 block of Anns Trace SE in unincorporated Acworth.

The grisly scene was discovered by family members, the Bartow County Sheriff's Office previously told Patch.

Days after the discovery, Reneaud was arrested in Cobb County on unrelated charges and booked into their facility. Cobb County Superior Court records show Reneaud, 22, in January 2017 pleaded guilty to aggravated assault, theft by taking and disorderly conduct and was sentenced to a year in prison related to that arrest. After serving that sentence, he was transferred to the Bartow County Jail to face the murder charges.

Both Martin and Fischer had gunshot wounds to their bodies, the sheriff's office previously said. The Bartow County Sheriff's Office previously told Patch that Reneaud was "known" to the victims.

According to The Daily Tribune News, Reneaud confessed to the killings during an interview with Bartow County Sheriff's Office detectives.
