I cannot express the shock and horror I felt when I heard about this. One-month-old Paris Talley was apparently murdered by being “cooked” in the microwave, allegedly by her own mother, China Arnold. China, of course, denies the charges, which she has now been indicted on. It happened on Aug. 3, 2005. China says she left Paris at home with a babysitter while she went out with Paris’ father, whose name has not been publicity announced, nor has the babysitter’s name. I have seen a news spot on this where the mother was hysterical, but I found it strange, to say the least. It seems a bit over the top. It took so long due to there not being alot of research on humans being microwaved (go figure!), but there were no outward burns, but Paris died from hyperthermia or high body temperature due to thermal injury. Just thinking of microwaving a baby makes me sick. Just because you can give birth does not mean you should become a parent.

People like this are stupid. Anyone to murdur a baby should be murderes thier self. Thier are plenty of people in the world who would love to have a baby that cant have one on thier own. Just think of how that baby felt ine the microwave burning up on the inside, with no way out. That women should pay. People like this are the ones pushing me to finish school and get into law just so I can lock mibdless retareds like this up.

I read a comment on this before that said “someone should put her in an oversized microwave and cooked her” boy is that a true statement. Maybe then she would understand what she did and how sick it was.
Abby, I agree. There are way too many people out there who cant have children. There are couples out there that would have taken the baby is a heartbeat.

How could you possibly not love your own child? That is the only thing I can think of as to why she would do that, anyone who honestly loves their own child would never do something so sick and twisted as this. My heart breaks every time I read something about someone abusing a child, especially an infant, they have no idea what is going on when these things happen to them. Heartless, that ‘s all these people are. I’m all for the most punishment that can possibly be thrown at these people, but nothing we ever do to them will compare to what they will face when they meet their Maker!

I am sixteen years old and i have a lil baby boy and i don’t understand how someone could do that to someone who has not got to live there life yet. That is very sad. I could never do something like that. I think teens that die don’t even get to live there lives.

This is the first time I have heard of this and it is very sick and disturbing. I have 5 children and 3 grandchildren and we want to have another child. I can not ever imagine even to burn a child with a cigertte let alone put them in a microwave and cook them to death. I think people like this and rapest and stuff should be tied up and let the family and friends take a shot at them for a few days. Then if there is anything left of them let the law have a shot at them. I think that whould put an end to a lot of this criminal stuff. My heart goes out to this family and I hope some how they will beable to find peace in their life and go on with their life until they meet this little girl in heaven and for the woman who done this burn in hell because even that is to good for someone like you.

Jane,
You do realize that she has admitted to do this, and more than once, right? She kept saying she didn’t mean to do it. And during the sentencing, they never proclaimed her innocence at all.

This is just heart breaking to hear that someone would actually do this to an innocent baby. It just sad there are places you can drop your baby off with no questions asked so Paris didn’t have to die if the boyfriend didn’t want her or the mother. At least she is sleeping with the angels now and safe unlike when she was in this world.

When I read about this a month old baby Paris was cooked to death in mircowave, which is so horrible and evil. It’s such heartbreaking to think about baby to be happen like that. I hate to think of children to being abused, etc in bad way, which is very cruel. What’s the f**king inside Paris’s mother China’s head when she shoved her own baby daughter in mircowave. Well, China got what she’s deserve – to be jailed for life. God bless Paris, as Paris gone to heaven with angels where the best place for baby like her.

The judge tore her a new one at sentencing. Per the media she had an arguement with her boyfriend regarding little Paris’s paternity. Upset about the boyfriends doubts, China went into her “I’ll show him” tirade and put that sweet baby in the microwave and pressed cook. The judge described this murder as heinous. (of course other things were said, I’m editing) I honestly felt in my heart this was death penality case. Life in prison is too good for China.
RIP Paris. Here’s a little justice for you sweetheart.

It’s justa wonder to think what Paris was thinking. It’s not even the fact that she felt the whole thing its that someone who she depends on for every single thing that is supposed to love her would even consider doing something like that. I’m 15 and my parents do everything they can to protect me. Sometimes I get tired of it but after reading this i embrass that my parents love me that much. i am sorry that Paris didn’t get that
RIP Paris
i love u
