LAS VEGAS (AP) - A Las Vegas woman has pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in the death of her 2-year-old son.

Prosecutors say she then cut the boy’s wrists and tried to kill herself.
Police were called to her home to conduct a welfare check. They found the child dead and Moya with several cuts.
Moya is scheduled to be sentenced in August.
