An 18-year-old cheerleader sat calmly in court as she was accused of murdering her own baby before torching and burying the baby's body in the back garden.
Brooke Skylar Richardson, from Ohio, in the US, was arrested after police discovered the newborn's charred remains in a shallow grave.
Officers had been tipped off by a doctor who suspected Richardson may have delivered a stillborn but, after examining the corpse, experts concluded the baby girl had been born alive.
