New Judge to Decide Anthony’s Fate | Annapolis News
Description
Karmelo Anthony, convicted of murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a track meet, is pushing for a new trial after his original jury rejected his self-defense claim. With his sentencing at 35 years, Anthony’s legal team now argues procedural flaws in the trial. A major twist: Judge John Roach, who presided over the original case, has been removed from post-trial proceedings, paving the way for a new judge to review the motion — scheduled for tomorrow. Witnesses describe a tense confrontation before the stabbing, and bodycam footage shows Anthony confessing to police. The case now hinges on whether this new judge will grant Anthony a fresh opportunity to challenge his conviction.
