Police claim that two women who preyed on a young mother by luring her into an apartment with the promise of a potential love triangle killed her.
Georgia police reported that Ashley Bocanegra, 30, was ambushed in a frightening incident that ended in two arrests.
Bocanegra’s murder, as well as aggravated violence and robbery, have been charged against Antonetta Steves, 27, and Janine Gonzalez, 17.
Bocanegra is alleged to have been attacked on August 11 after the suspects lured her into an apartment during a quarrel involving a love triangle, according to Gwinnett County Police.
Gonzalez’s brother allegedly had a love involvement with Stevens and Bocanegra; this is said to be the reason for the attack.
Police claimed that the thieves also took Bocanegra’s smartphone.

Before she could undergo surgery, Bocanegra passed away.
Gonzalez’s brother was reportedly in the apartment at the time of the incident and was suffering from “injuries all over his shoulders and back,” per 11Alive.
In a GoFundMe page set up to help with funeral costs, Bocanegra’s relatives referred to her as a joyful girl who was “full of life.”
Her seven-year-old son is her only surviving child.
She was such a joyful person who, as soon as she entered the room, brightened it up, according to the fundraiser.
