ZANESVILLE, Ohio — A former Ohio college student accused of giving birth in a sorority house bathroom and killing her baby girl by disposing of her in a trash bag has been sentenced to life in prison without parole.

A judge in Zanesville sentenced 21-year-old Emile Weaver on Monday. A jury last month found her guilty of aggravated murder and other charges.

According to the Zanesville Times Recorder, Weaver cried in court as she apologized.

"I stand before you a broken-down woman, asking for forgiveness and mercy," Weaver said. "Words cannot express how sorry I am to my beautiful daughter Addison."

Prosecutors said Weaver gave birth in a bathroom at the Delta Gamma Theta sorority at Muskingum University on April 22, 2015, then purposefully caused the death of her baby.

They said the baby girl died from asphyxiation after Weaver put her in a plastic trash bag and left it outside the sorority house.

According to the International Business Times, the judge cited text messages Weaver sent to the man she believed to be the father of her baby, that included "No more baby," and "taken care of."

"That was probably the most truthful statement you made that day," the judge told Weaver, according to the Zanesville Times Recorder. "It was an inconvenience, and you took care of it."

Weaver said she plans to appeal the sentence.
