Tiffany Foster murder: Jury hears chilling 911 call, mom testifies
Mother Tiffany Foster testifies during murder trial
It is day two in the Coweta County murder trial of the man accused in the disappearance and death of Tiffany Foster. Foster, a young mother of three, vanished in 2021 and has not been seen since. Her former fiancé, Reginald Robertson, is now on trial for her murder.
COWETA COUNTY, Ga. - Testimony continued Thursday in Coweta County in the murder trial of Reginald Robertson, the former fiancé accused of kidnapping and killing Newnan mother Tiffany Foster, who vanished in March 2021 and has never been found.
What we know:
Prosecutors again revisited a separate incident from November 2020 that they say helps establish a pattern. Foster’s mother, Katrina Hill, took the stand and testified she has not heard from her daughter since 2021. Hill told jurors that months before the disappearance, Robertson took Foster to an abandoned house, blindfolded her, tied her up and fired a gun. Investigators later located that house and testified they found zip ties, a shell casing and a bullet hole in the ceiling.
Tiffany Foster murder: Jury hears testimony about alleged kidnapping
Testimony continued Thursday afternoon in the case surrounding the alleged kidnapping, assault, and death of Tiffany Foster. FOX 5’s Doug Evans has been inside the courtroom for the past three days, providing an in-depth breakdown of the evidence and witness accounts presented so far.
Victim's mother testifies
What they're saying:
Hill also recounted a disturbing incident involving Robertson that happened months before Foster disappeared. She told jurors that in November 2020, Robertson took Foster to an abandoned house, blindfolded her, tied her up and fired a gun. Prosecutors emphasized that, while that incident is not tied directly to her disappearance, Robertson is charged with kidnapping and aggravated assault for what happened that night.
An investigator testified that authorities found the abandoned home after Foster vanished and discovered zip ties, a shell casing and a bullet hole in the ceiling — evidence they believe supports the 2020 attack.

Chilling 911 call
What they're saying:
Jurors also listened to a chilling 911 call from that same November night. In it, Foster can be heard screaming, apparently unaware the dispatcher was listening, "Reggie, you’re scaring me. Reggie, you have a gun."
The court is now beginning to hear testimony involving a second man, identified as Jeremy Walker.
Prosecutors say he is charged with concealing a death and is accused of helping Robertson dispose of Foster’s body.
Her car was later found abandoned in a mall parking lot. According to Hill’s testimony, Walker told her, "Tiffany’s never coming back" and "Tiffany is no longer with us."
Tiffany Foster murder: Mother takes the stand
Prosecutors are now laying out their cases against the man accused of killing Tiffany Foster several years ago and the man accused of helping him. Foster's mother took the stand on Thursday morning.
The backstory:
So far, much of the case has focused on that November 2020 kidnapping incident, for which Robertson faces charges of kidnapping and aggravated assault, in addition to the murder allegations that remain unresolved as Foster’s body has not been recovered.
The trial continues.
