Avery and Freeman were each charged with murder and feticide and were being held without bond, according to WAGA-TV.

Police have not released a possible motive for the slaying.

"It’s just senseless, you know, for someone to just do that to her,” said the victim’s aunt, Paulette Ngtmi. “It’s a monster who did this to her.”
