Shocking Video Evidence of Father Forcing Son to Run on Treadmill
The Disturbing Video Footage
The shocking video footage of a young boy allegedly being forced onto a treadmill by his father has left many in tears. The jury in the Christopher Gregor murder trial watched a video this week that prosecutors say shows the defendant forcing his 6-year-old son Corey Micciolo to run on a treadmill because he allegedly thought the boy was “fat.”
The Heartbreaking Incident
The footage shows Corey struggling to keep up with the pace of the treadmill and falling down repeatedly, only to be picked up by his father and put back on the treadmill. This heartbreaking incident occurred just 12 days before Corey’s tragic death, leading his mother Breanna Micciolo to seek an emergency custody bid, which, unfortunately, was denied.
The Devastating Outcome
On April 2, 2021, Corey passed away just a few hours after being left with his father. The loss of a child is unimaginable, but the added pain of losing a child to such circumstances has left Breanna Micciolo shattered.
The Legal Case Unfolds
The treadmill incident was captured on video surveillance at the fitness center where Gregor was living, leading to charges of child endangerment. Corey’s mother, Breanna, told police that Gregor’s anger towards Corey led to this tragic event. Despite her repeated attempts to report the abuse to the proper authorities, her emergency custody request was denied.
The Fight for Justice
Breanna had been in contact with the New Jersey Department of Child Protection and Permanency for close to a year, detailing the abuse Corey endured. Medical records showed signs of physical trauma, and Corey’s fear of his father was evident in his behavior. Despite her efforts, the court system failed to protect Corey.
The Tragic End
Corey’s visit to a pediatrician the day before his death revealed alarming physical injuries, with Corey expressing fear and pain. Medical examinations conducted after his death revealed severe injuries that led to his untimely passing. The defense’s claims of pneumonia as the cause of death are vehemently disputed by medical experts.
The Path Forward
As the trial progresses, the heartbreaking story of Corey Micciolo serves as a stark reminder of the importance of child protection and advocacy. Justice must prevail for Corey, whose short life was marred by abuse and tragedy.
