Defense Attorney Speaks Out About Mother Charged With Murder
NewsCenter 7 first told you Wednesday about shocking information in the case of a Dayton mother charged with killing her newborn baby in a microwave oven.
Court documents said that police and prosecutors have DNA evidence to support their case against China Arnold.
The documents also claimed she admitted the crime.
Thursday, Arnold's attorney spoke out about what appears to be strong evidence against his client.
Jon Paul Rion said, "From everyone's version of events including the police, China Arnold never admitted anything. She told the police she had no idea who or what caused the death of her child. The document filed in court was simply a form document that meant to say that she had made statements."
Dayton police told NewsCenter 7 that Arnold did not make a confession in this case despite the wording on the court documents, but they said they definitely do have DNA evidence in the case.
Arnold remains in custody in the Montgomery County Jail charged with aggravated murder.
