Back to EpisodesTrack Meet Killer Karmelo Anthony Sobs as He's Shipped Off to Prison
Description
A Texas jury found 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony guilty of murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf after about three hours of deliberations, rejecting the defense's argument that Anthony acted in self-defense during a deadly confrontation at a high school track meet. Prosecutors argued that Anthony provoked the encounter by refusing to leave a rival school's tent area before fatally stabbing Metcalf, while the defense maintained that Anthony reacted after being pushed. A jury chose to send Anthony to prison for 35 years. Law&Crime’s Chris Stewart, alongside Court TV’s Cody Thomas, are On the Case.
