Trial begins for the accused 'Killer' father who forced his 6-year-old son to run on the treadmill because he was ‘too fat.’
Christopher Gregor, 31, is on trial for the alleged murder of his son Corey Micciolo in 2021.
Video shown during the trial at Ocean City's Superior Court depicts Gregor forcing Micciolo to run on a treadmill.
Corey's mother, Bre Micciolo, was the first to witness to take the stand.
Days before Corey's death, Bre reported his injuries to the New Jersey Division of Child Protection and Permanency and requested a doctor's appointment on April 1.
During the appointment, Corey reportedly said that his father made him run on the treadmill because he was "too fat."
The next day, Corey was rushed to the hospital by Gregor after exhibiting symptoms such as stumbling, slurred speech, nausea, and shortness of breath.
Despite efforts to save him, Corey suffered a seizure during a CT scan, and medical staff were unable to revive him.
An initial autopsy revealed Corey's cause of death as blunt force injuries with cardiac and liver contusions, acute inflammation, and sepsis.
