Mother guilty of murdering baby
A mother who killed her month-old baby daughter by burning her in a microwave has been convicted of murder.
China Arnold, 28, intentionally put her baby Paris Talley in the microwave and cooked her to death after a fight with her boyfriend in 2005, a court in Dayton, Ohio, heard.
A jury found her guilty of aggravated murder and she will face the death penalty when sentenced.
Arnold showed no reaction when the verdict was announced and then lowered her head, looking down at the defence table.
Relatives in the Montgomery County courtroom cried and covered their faces with their hands.
Her daughter was pronounced dead on August 30 2005 at the Children's Medical Centre in Dayton, Ohio.
Arnold, her four children and her then-boyfriend Terrell Talley lived in a flat at the Parkside Homes housing complex, which has since been condemned.
US prosecutors said Arnold intentionally put her baby in the microwave oven and cooked the child to death after a fight with her boyfriend.
Her cellmate told the court that Arnold confessed to putting the baby in the microwave and turned it on because she was worried her boyfriend would leave her if he found out the child was not his.
Jurors, who returned their verdict after around eight hours of deliberations, will return to the court on Tuesday to consider whether Arnold will face the death penalty.
