(CNN) -- Authorities believe an infant girl found at the home of a Kansas woman is the same baby taken from her mother's womb Thursday after the mother was killed in Missouri.
Lisa Montgomery, 36, of Melvern, Kansas, confessed to strangling Bobbie Jo Stinnett, 23, and then "removing the fetus," according to an FBI affidavit filed Friday.
Stinnett was killed at about 3 p.m. Thursday (4 p.m. ET) in her house in Skidmore in northwest Missouri.
Montgomery, whom authorities say had a miscarriage earlier this year, was arrested and charged with kidnapping resulting in death. If convicted, Montgomery could receive a maximum sentence of life in prison or the death penalty, and a maximum $250,000 fine.
Authorities said they believe Stinnett was strangled with a rope or other type of line.
The baby was taken from her body, possibly with a knife, said Sheriff Ben Espey of Nodaway County, Missouri. An autopsy was under way Friday.
The affidavit said the FBI was given a tip by a dog breeder in North Carolina who saw postings from Stinnett, who was eight months pregnant, and Montgomery in an Internet chat room.
Stinnett and her husband bred dogs and sold them over the Internet, neighbors said.
The FBI traced an e-mail to Montgomery and sent agents to monitor the woman's home, where they saw her with a "newborn female infant."

"The person who did this deserves to die. "

Not much difference between this and abortion...
Yep. It's sick. At least that little baby still has a father.
Yes it is....
and it is not like an abortion IMO as the killer probably intended for the baby to live....unlike the killers that do abortions...
seemingly to the dismay of folks on the early threads who all stepped over each other to post "where is the father" or "another unwed mother"
Father was at work. This was well planned IMHO. I missed those posts. That's probably a good thing *lol*
Such a sad story. Reminds me of the Sharon Tate murder. She begged for them to save her baby but they did not. At least the child is alive but what a horrible start to life.
Yeah....
I am sure the father is holding onto that baby with everything that is in him....
I dont understand how people can do that to each other....it baffles me...
notice that the authorites put out an AMber ALert for a Missing "Fetus." Remember according to pro-choicers and Planned Parenthood, a Fetus isnt a person, its just a glob until the woman gives birth which it then becomes a person. This case seems to put a blow on Planned Parenthood and Pro-choicers since there was an AMber Alert on what they call a Fetus.
So in summary, was this woman killed and cut open because this girl who had miscarried wanted a baby? Or was this little baby going to be sold?
I have not been following this incredibly bizarre story.
I wonder if the Amber Alert could be issued as a result of the law President Bush passed which allows killers of unborn babies to be charged with their deaths...except abortionists, of course.
True. I think this case can put a blow to Planned Parenthood and Pro-choicers. After all the baby had not yet been born had it?
I am so tired of arguing with Liberals that say a "fetus" isnt a person until birth. How then Mr. Liberal can an Amber Alert be issued for a fetus that had not yet become a baby through childbirth?
(Note: I wont calling you Mr.Liberal Judy) Im talking to the few Liberals that troll our pages here at Freerepublic.
"Lisa Montgomery, 36, of Melvern, Kansas"
This IS one of the most shocking story of the year.
Shocking stories deserve a shocking end.
Give this woman the rope. Give it to her NOW!
That said, get a rope for the murderer. God bless this baby and her father, and give them the strength to deal with this horrible, horrible tragedy.
