That is one of the sickest things I've heard of, but given how horribly so many kids are treated I suppose it was only a matter of time.

In 2000, a Virginia woman was sentenced to five years in prison for killing her month-old son in a microwave oven. Elizabeth Renee Otte claimed she had no memory of cramming her son in the microwave and turning on the appliance in 1999.

Experts said that Otte suffered from epilepsy and that her seizures were followed by blackouts.



good thing she's a woman. oh, and i'm sure she's very, very sorry.

Damn I wish you would be sentenced to die the same way that you killed. That would be 1 hell of a deterent especially in cases like this!

Don't forget to stir half way through.
Allow to sit for one minute before serving.

My mother stopped watching the news because of stories like these. I really don't understand people sometimes. MAYBE she's mentally ill, but god, if you can't take care of your kid or don't want it anymore or something, I don't see why people can't just contact an adoption agency/ foster care.

You`re still conducting this discussion like she`s definitely already guilty. There are questions, and a trial has not been held. That`s pretty low if you ask me. Innocent until proven guilty...
