An Ohio mother could face the death penalty after being convicted Friday of murdering her month-old daughter by burning her in a microwave oven.

A jury is slated to return on Tuesday to begin hearing evidence
in the sentencing phase of the case.

China Arnold had been accused of killing Paris Talley in 2005.
Her first trial ended in a mistrial in February.

Prosecutors had claimed the 28-year-old Arnold intentionally put
her baby in the microwave oven and cooked her to death after a
fight with her boyfriend.

Arnold's cellmate had testified that Arnold confessed to her
that she killed the baby because she was worried her boyfriend
would leave her if he found out the child wasn't his.

Arnold's defense lawyer claimed there's evidence that someone
else was responsible.
