Michigan Parents Face Life in Prison for 7-Year-Old's 255-lb Death

Damien and Jessica O'Brien face second-degree murder, torture, and child abuse charges in Genesee County after their 7-year-old son, who weighed 255 pounds, died of dilated cardiomyopathy.

A July 2, 2026 hearing opens what is likely to be a precedent-setting examination of causation and malice under Michigan law.
