Jury convicts mom of microwave murder of baby

The Dayton, Ohio, mother accused of microwaving her baby to death was found guilty Friday of aggravated murder for killing her month-old child.

China Arnold, 28, showed no reaction to the verdict, according to reports. She could receive the death penalty when she's sentenced.

Defense attorneys had tried to convince the jury that a boy had taken the baby into the kitchen and microwaved the baby, not Arnold.
