Woman cut unborn child out of body

A jury in Boulder in the US state of Colorado has convicted a 36-year-old woman of murder because an unborn child was cut from the abdomen with another woman.

The offender hangs a sentence of at least sixteen years to life overhead. The court determines the sentence on April 29, he announced Wednesday along.

The 36-year-old woman lured the 27-year-old pregnant woman at her home, put it on her and tried to strangle her. Finally they cut the seven-month-old fetus from the body of the victim. In her action she drove the child to a hospital where she was told that it was her baby.

The offender himself has two daughters and in 2002 lost her nineteen month old son by accident.
