My Way News - Witness: Mom Copped to Microwaving Baby
AP reports: "Thermal burns on the baby were different from those that would have been suffered from a fire, electrical shock, hot water, an iron or chemicals, said Russell Uptegrove, a forensic pathologist with the Montgomery County coroner's office. It took him awhile to consider that the burns might have come from a microwave oven, he said. 'It was so heinous to think of that, that I couldn't convince myself it was a real possibility,' Uptegrove said. DNA recovered from the ceiling of the oven matched that of the baby, he said."
