FRISCO, Texas — Karmelo Anthony, the teen accused of fatally stabbing another teen, Austin Metcalf, at a Frisco track meet, has been indicted on a murder charge, officials said.

A grand jury indicted Anthony on Tuesday, according to the Collin County District Attorney's Office. A murder charge is punishable by 5-99 years or life in prison.



Anthony, a 17-year-old former student of Frisco Centennial High School, was arrested and charged with murder in the fatal stabbing of Frisco Memorial High School student athlete Austin Metcalf in April at a track meet in Frisco ISD's Kuykendall Stadium. He was released from jail later that month after his bond was reduced from $1 million to $250,000.

Anthony has claimed self defense in the case, which garnered national attention, heightening racial tensions and raising security concerns among everyone connected to the case, including both families and Judge Angela Tucker, who is presiding over the case.

"We know this case has struck a deep nerve — here in Collin County and beyond," Collin County District Attorney Greg Willis said in a statement Tuesday. "That’s understandable. When something like this happens at a school event, it shakes people to the core. But the justice system works best when it moves with steadiness and with principle. That’s what we’re committed to. And that’s exactly what this case deserves."

Anthony's attorney, Mike Howard, called Tuesday's indictment "an expected and routine step in the legal process."

"Karmelo and his family are confident in the justice system and the people of Collin County to be fair and impartial," Howard said. "Of course, Karmelo looks forward to his day in court. It's only in a trial that a jury will hear the full story, one that includes critical facts and context that the grand jury simply didn't get to hear."

Howard again raised Anthony's self defense claim in his statement Tuesday.

"We expect that when the full story is heard, the prosecution will not be able to rule out the reasonable doubt that Karmelo Anthony may have acted in self defense," Howard said. "Self defense is a fundamental right guaranteed every American."



Metcalf's father, Jeff Metcalf, told WFAA in a statement that he's "pleased that we are moving forward."

“With the first degree murder indictment, it now goes into the court system," Jeff Metcalf said. "I fully believe that justice will be served for Austin Metcalf. I look forward to the forthcoming trial. But it will never bring my son back.“

Under his bond conditions, Anthony is required to wear an ankle monitor and ask permission to leave his home. If Anthony violates any conditions of his bond, he will have to return to jail. He graduated and received his high school diploma in May, but did not attend the ceremony, WFAA previously reported.

Anthony allegedly confessed to the stabbing immediately after he was arrested, claiming he was defending himself from Metcalf, officials said, as WFAA previously reported.

A witness reportedly told police that Metcalf told Anthony he had to move out from under the Memorial High School tent. Anthony responded by opening his bag and reaching inside, WFAA previously reported.

"Touch me and see what happens," Anthony told Metcalf, according to a witness.

Metcalf reportedly then touched Anthony, the witness told a responding officer, and Anthony told Metcalf to punch him and see what would happen. Soon afterward, the witness said, Metcalf reportedly grabbed Anthony to tell him to move. At which point, the affidavit continues, Anthony reportedly pulled out what the witness recalled as a black knife and stabbed Metcalf once in the chest before running away.

The deep tension sparked by the incident has raised concerns that the case may be tried outside of Collin County. Collin County District Attorney Greg Willis told WFAA that the judge will make that decision at the time of trial.

Once in a while you get a Louis Armstrong or a Fats Domino. It was like our version of the nigger powerball.

American prisons are not quite regarded as to actually valuing rehabilitation of prisoners thus getting into programs to get trade certifications. I remember one guy on YouTube who does mostly engineering stuff spending time in a federal pen and it took him years to even get into a course and finally get some certifications before he could make his way out. He even helped others get into courses because of how difficult it was to actually yknow, get into them.

American prisons do not provide therapy I thought niggers would know genpop is hell on earth for most people. It’s just losers gay raping each other. Are we really going to act like he’s going to keep getting visitations the entire time? You know he’s going to be transferred at least once for being bashed or some horrible shit happening to him or he spergs out. That is to say his family will even give a shit and keep visiting him.

 

[Pargon]

Programmed by who?

Look at who owns the AI companies now.

Someone better than the people who are doing it now, obviously. Do you think incremental advances in technology don’t exist, and we’d need to make our way over to the hidden node on the skill tree?

American blacks have their own retarded honour culture. That's why they think being disrespected means they're allowed to kill someone. It's also why they don't give a fuck about the truth. A nigger could commit a crime with twenty cameras filming him from multiple angles, an entire stadium of witnesses, officers on the scene with bodycam footage and a recorded confession from the nog and other niggers would still say HE DINDU NUFFIN, because they care more about defending their nigzzat than the truth. Their entire thought process is this man is black, therefore they HAVE to help him avoid punishment.

as everyone knows, american prisons are known for their stellar healthcare

He's about to live his best years

Austin Metcalf already lived all of his years.

17 1/2 years before paroles is nothing. All his meals are provided for. He will get free education and probably a degree. He will play basketball and talk to murder chasing Shaniqua's on the phone. he will get out in his 30's and father children. Maybe even earlier once California has chased off enough liberals to Texas to swing the vote. He will be protected by the blacks because he killed a whitey and they think he has clout. He will drink fruit drinks and eat honeybuns from commissary.

17 1/2 years is nothing. 17 1/2 years is all Austin Metcalf had.

 

[bookers]

What I don't understand is how anyone can think it wasn't premeditated.

It clearly was premeditated, but this wasn't a consideration in court so it doesn't matter.
you're basically saying 'i don't understand why blacks said he dindu nuffin' when you already know the answer.

Niggers invented their own form of Izzat. They somehow made it even worse.

 

[Ded Sert]

wow, texas gives less time for murder than England. (for murder in England it's Life, minimum 20 years before parole)

 

[who dare wins?]

17 1/2 years is nothing. 17 1/2 years is all Austin Metcalf had.

It’s sad he wasn’t given life (or the death penalty tbf, as a just society would) but this is again assuming he doesn’t sperg out and just add more years to his sentence or gets denied parole continually due to his priors.

I’ve seen multiple examples of people going away for murder who proceed to completely sperg out within the first few years of prison and either attempt to kill someone or assault a corrections officer to just add onto their sentence. Also Karmelo is probably too stupid to get a degree in the first place and his family has used up all the money. Although him having all his meals provided for and living out the rest of his days in prison is too good. He probably doesn’t feel bad and doesn’t care, he will even try to brag about it like a dumb nigger.

Do not be surprised if within 5 years we get news stories of him being violently beaten, raped or him trying to kill somoene and adding another 20 years attempted with no parole which will up his parole period.

People need to realize thirty-five years is FAR from easy time. Texas prison also has a reputation for being harsh.

God's wrath is all well and good but it's up to man and our laws to make the appointment.

I'd have had him hanged for murder by now.

Ok, as long as you agree that the libtards who have their hands on AI now definitely wouldn’t be able to make the system in an objective way.

Then again even if the blacks were literate enough to code that’s probably the worst outcome. Any white guy accused of anything would be guilty => death.

They’d program it with victimhood points so the trans black woman can get away with murder.

 

[CharlesBarkley]

I just kind of want to muse about something....

Let's start with Floyd and BLM. No need to type a long essay, black people chimped out over retarded shit, and sympathy/white guilt was at a high then. But oh, how things change.

The black fatigue has been on the rise right afterward. It's like, just one blow after another after another. All it took was body cams showing niggers acting like animals at every traffic interaction to immediately crush all sympathy for them. 99% of the police-footage YouTube channels that became popular were originally created to highlight bad behavior by police. Take, for example, classic Policeactivity - originally only had negative views on cops, now every single video is a nigger acting like the biggest retard on earth, and every comment underneath the video is now "I'm glad he is dead, lmao. Dumb ape."

Along with this came nonstop migrant violence over the years from North Africans and other feral ape men who simply refuse to follow the laws and cultural norms of the countries that graciously offer to host them. Free room, board, and benefits were given to them while the natives were struggling economically, with the UK and other Western nations' governments thinking it would be the perfect solution to economic woes - After all, immigrants worked for the USA! The only problem is the UK and other Euroscum land did zero research on this and didn't see that the immigrants that America let in, on the majority, were not muslim or black. Whoops~ Oh well. Now it's just nonstop gang violence and knife crime - Something that places like Sweden have finally begun to understand that there is zero chance of assimilation, and they offer zero benefits.

Continuing over the years, flash mobs, "teen" takeovers, and nonstop nigger behavior are getting more and more highlighted with the increase in media coming with the rise of smart devices. Even the most drunk, fat, obese wine aunt can now simply scroll basic social media and see the nigger behavior that makes them gasp in horror.

Then, finally, you have these "big" cases, where across the world on prime TV, you have a group of people protesting that some retarded nigger who killed a kid for a slight touch (if Austin ever placed his hands on him at all) is enough justification to stab someone to death. People, all across the world, can see these low IQ retards who can't understand concepts like appropriate or measured force, per capita, and apparently calories. They see these fat, monkey-brain retards legit screaming and shouting and pretending to act dramatic in an act of tribalism that is so cringe-inducing, it's straight up like some kind of Greek tragedy if it was written by a retarded who hated both audience and actors. With the Chow case, it's proof that there will never be another fall guy for these cases to make black people feel better. There will not be another Derek Chauvin sacrificed just to make niggers feel better - Because the powers that be know that they will just riot anyway and be pushed further into thinking they are above normal laws and standards.

Black people need a massive cultural shift to see any sort of success. I think the only way to do that is for them to hit rock bottom once again. And by rock bottom, I mean, even Reddit and other fag soy sites saying that niggers need to be buck broken and raped in prison on the daily. Once that happens, perhaps when even the fattest, dumbest, coal-burner women get tired of it, and every institution and system quits assisting them, they will finally understand that perhaps, just perhaps, they need to quit acting like niggers.

In short, the best way we can defeat racism and help black people.... It is to call them retarded niggers every day and/or buck break them. Every time you scream nigger at the Foot Locker, you are helping out the world.

 

[Fat Camp Intern]

I feel like the masses are starting to find their balls. People are no longer afraid of getting labeled "racist". I see it happening more and more in reddit comments, despite the censorship. Everyone is fed up. Even the civilized blacks are calling out their own race.

Honestly, I'm at the point where if one of these ferals gets in my face I'm just swinging. No talking, no shouting, no posturing. I'm just throwing a hook, Bas Ruten style

 

[Sleazy Car Salesman]

Karmelo Anthony is a human being

No he isn't he's a nigger.

 

[Frag Tag Mini 3]

What I don't understand is how anyone can think it wasn't premeditated.

- He brought a knife to the track meet when they are prohibited.
- He dared Austin to touch him and "find out" IE he planned on using the knife if Austin touched him
- He concealed the knife in his backpack and already had his hand on it long before Austin touched him
- He stabbed Austin the second he touched him, meaning the knife was already open in the bag while he was concealing it.

It couldn't get more premeditated than that short of writing out a letter saying "today I plan on killing Austin Metcalf, at the track meet, under their tent, by stabbing him in the heart" and mailing it to the local newspaper the day before.

I do wonder what causes it. Sometimes I think back to my highschool days. Went to a school with a lot of blacks. Best example of this was going to math class where the blacks and girls would stop everyone from learning. Also the teacher was a retard.

We would do some kind of math assignment. Then the teacher would go over every question once it was graded and given back to us. "Here's question one, here's the solution, any question?" And every fucking question would take close to 20 mins because either a black or a girl would try to argue their way out of it being wrong. And of course, once you hit the 30 min mark you just check out because fucking christ help you, there's only so many times you can listen to a retard fuck up order of operations before you want to kill them.

I think about this because it feels kind of familiar. Like they have an end point that they want to be true, and instead of change their view point as new info comes in, it's instead a debate to get everyone else to go "Oh fuck, right. Yeah, I forgot that knife is legal in texas. Fuck, maybe there's other things I didn't think of."

I think maybe it's something like that combined with not being able to think ahead more than 35 seconds or so.

For those of you remember the fat black from a few days ago in the trial, Jacob Blake Sr, the one who saying that all crackers should die? This is his step son blowing his ass out:

This is kinda heartwarming in it's own way. Knowing someone was able to get away from the tard and live a better life and have a much better fate than to be sub human. Good for this guy.

Yup. For a long time, the existence of a very limited number of media channels made it very easy for everyone to get a fictional view of reality that showed "everyone's actually alike, deep down" and "our values are all the same" and all those messages.

Now that people can see what the streets are actually like, and not someone telling a story that might be exaggerated or a big lie but no, now it's all on video, and even if you dismiss one or two videos how do you dismiss a thousand or ten thousand all showing you, e.g., people doing the fent fold on public streets, or the racial makeup of a "'teen' takeover."

Bodycams and smartphones are going to be changing a lot of hearts and minds.

did he get a worse sentence than Chauvin?

just barely, Chauvin is serving 22.5 years
