A 27-year-old man was found guilty Wednesday of second-degree murder for his role in a botched 2024 home invasion in Lower Merion that left a 25-year-old man dead and his mother paralyzed, the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office said.

The jury also found Jeremy Fuentes guilty of three counts of conspiracy — he was not present, but prosecutors said he inspired two other men to commit the burglary that turned deadly.

No sentencing date was set, but conviction on second-degree murder is an automatic life sentence, said Kate Delano, spokesperson for the district attorney’s office.
