Microwaved Baby

by Earl Morningstarr

China Arnold was convicted today for the murder of her 28 day old baby daughter, the child was burned to death in a microwave oven.

Arnold showed little emotion as the verdict was read, relatives of the murderer began to sob in the court room and walked out.

Prosecutors had told the court how Arnold placed the baby in the microwave following an argument with her boyfriend in 2005, Arnold’s cellmate gave evidence that Arnold confessed to burning the child to death because she was worried her boyfriend would leave her if he discovered the child wasn’t his.

Her defence team argued that Arnold was too drunk on the night of the murder to have carried out the horrendous act, and that a young boy was seen taking the infant into the kitchen and turning the microwave on.

Judge John Kessler declared a mistrial on the 11th of February after he privately heard testimony from the juvenile who was the only witness to the boy taking the baby into the kitchen.

Arnold, from Ohio, may face the death penalty when sentenced. The court will decide on Tuesday whether the death penalty is called for.
