Sacramento Woman Charged With Putting Baby In Microwave Convicted Of Murder

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) – A Sacramento mom accused of killing her own baby by putting her in a microwave has been convicted of murder.

Ka Yang killed her two-month-old daughter, Mirabelle Thao-Lo, back in 2011.

Investigators say the baby suffered burns to 80 percent of her body – some burns as deep as her internal organs.

Yang claims she had a seizure and blacked out the day she killed her daughter.

The Sacramento County District Attorney's Office says Yang will be sentenced at a later date.
