Mum arrested after baby dies in microwave oven
Ka Yang is being held without bail in Sacramento County Jail on suspicion of murder and assault resulting in the death of a child.
She was arrested on Tuesday, three months after her otherwise healthy six-week-old daughter, Mirabelle Thao-Lo, was found dead in the family home on March 17.
Police described the child as suffering "extensive thermal injuries".
Officer Laura Peck said the arrest took so long because investigators had to pinpoint what they believe is the cause of death by looking for other cases involving similar injuries.
They found three in the US, all after children were burned in a microwave: in Dayton, Ohio; Galveston, Texas; and New Kent County, Virginia.
"This is rare. The injuries were obviously very unique," Peck said.
"There have been only three other documented cases in the entire country where the injuries were consistent with this case. ... Those children were also burned and placed in the microwave."
She said police do not know a motive.
"We wouldn't assess her mental condition. That will be up to the court system," Peck said. "The bottom line is no one knows what happened in that house but her and the little baby."
Yang has three other children, all under age seven, who were removed from the home the day their sister was found dead. They are now living with relatives.

Calif. Mom Arrested After Baby Dies in Microwave - ParentDish
Who will our justice system defend?
The murderess, or the innocent helpless 6 wk old child victim?
Todays justice isn't JUSTICE!
You can be sure that killing bich will live out the rest of her days BREATHING, unlike her baby daughter whose last breath was shut out in that nuker, when her own mother put her finger on the "START" button to instantly cook her to death!
This bich needs to be put in a solitary room at 550' heat and slowly cooked to death so she can then remember how at her own hands, her child suffered and died!
BY GOD, LET THIS CHILD HAVE JUSTICE!!!!!
