Brentley Gore, 3, died Sunday afternoon at the hospital. Arrested in the case is 21-year-old Joshua Richards, the child's stepfather, the son of a Carollton Police Chief.
Authorities responded to the Hickory Falls Apartments this past Tuesday morning after a report of an injured child. Police said the mother noticed bruises when she went to wake the boy up Tuesday morning.
The child was airlifted to an Atlanta-area hospital with multiple skull fractures.
An investigation determined that Richards caused the injuries, using a belt.
Richards was charged with aggravated assault, aggravated battery, cruelty to children in the first degree and possession of marijuana. Murder charges are now expected later Sunday or Monday.
