FARGO, N.D. (AP) — The Latest on the sentencing of a North Dakota woman who admitted killing a pregnant neighbor (all times local):

1:15 p.m.

A North Dakota judge is deciding whether a woman who admitted killing a pregnant neighbor so she and her boyfriend could keep the baby should merit a sentence other than life in prison without parole.

Brooke Crews pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit kidnapping, conspiracy to commit murder and lying to law officers in the August death of 22-year-old Savanna Greywind of Fargo.

Crews didn't have a plea deal with prosecutors, but hoped that admitting responsibility at a December hearing would work in her favor at Friday's sentencing in Fargo. She appeared in court in orange prison clothing, cuffed at the wrists.

Authorities haven't said how Greywind was killed. The baby was found alive in the apartment the 38-year-old Crews shared with her 32-year-old boyfriend, William Hoehn (hayn).

Hoehn is scheduled for trial in March.
