Karmelo Anthony has begun serving a 35-year prison sentence after being convicted of murdering Austin Metcalf, with prosecutors calling the verdict long-awaited accountability for a devastating loss. Before sentencing, Austin's family delivered emotional victim impact statements, describing how his death shattered their lives and confronting Anthony directly about the pain they continue to endure.

Law&Crime’s Chris Stewart, alongside Court TV’s Vinnie Politan, are On the Case.
