A woman pleads guilty in connection with the death of her one-month-old daughter after the child is found to have been placed in a hot oven. The case involves Mariah Thomas, 28, and her daughter, Za’Riah Mae.
According to reporting, Thomas enters the plea after being detained nearly three years earlier. The articles say she resolves the case through a plea deal, and she previously claimed she mistook the situation for a crib. The outlets also report that the court imposes a comparatively short sentence, though details of sentencing and the precise legal charges are presented in the coverage without consistent elaboration across sources.
