Karmelo Anthony stabbed Austin Metcalf in the heart on April 2nd as they argued over a seat. Anthony entered the tent Austin and his brother were in, and they wanted him to leave. Karmelo admitted to the stabbing, and according to CBS News, once in the police car, he asked the officers if what he did could be considered self-defense.
The NY Post report, based on eyewitness accounts:
After the initial confrontation, Anthony unzipped a bag, reached inside, and told Metcalf, “Touch me and see what happens,” a witness told police, according to the arrest report.
Moments later, Metcalf “grabbed Anthony to tell him to move and Anthony pulled out … a black knife and stabbed Austin once in the chest,” police said. The teen suffered a stab wound to the heart and later died in the arms of his identical twin brother, Hunter.
Anthony told police he did stab Metcalf but says that Metcalf put his hands on him first, according to FOX 4. Anthony also reportedly asked police whether what he did could be considered self-defense.
The Fundraiser
The family of Karmelo Anthony has a GiveSendGo fundraiser for him.
On the official site, he has received $148,250 from 4,238 people. The family keeps raising the ceiling.
The ceiling is up to $200,000.
Black Lives Matter has taken up the cause probably because he’s black and the victim is white. A Justice for Karmelo Anthony site has only collected $350.
The family wrote on the fundraiser, “The narrative being spread is false, unjust, and harmful.” They say they are a religious family.
The following comments were on the page and have since been removed:
The crowdfunding page that has been set up for Anthony alleged that the suspect was “jumped” by the brothers. It also alleged that at least one of the brothers knew Anthony.
They described him as a“respectful, well-mannered young man” with “multiple college offers” and a “4.0 student.”
“A kid with ZERO criminal history- not even a blemish. A son raised in a loving home by parents who taught him right from wrong,” the page reads. Two anonymous donors contributed $1,000 each to the campaign.
An attorney for Anthony has claimed that the stabbing was done in self-defense.
Defense attorney Deric Walpole told local news outlet NBC 5 that Anthony stated he acted in self-defense.
“I know that my client said it was self-defense. I don’t have any reason to disbelieve that, but I need to develop facts, talk to people and figure out what’s going on before I make any statements about what I think happened,” Walpole told the outlet on Friday, April 4. “I don’t have any reason to think it wasn’t self-defense at this time.”
The defense attorney added that he is also asking a judge to lower Anthony’s $1 million bond.
According to CBS, police released this information on the murder:
- Witness says Metcalf was sitting under his school’s tent.
- Anthony came over to them.
- Metcalf told Anthony to leave.
- Anthony then grabbed his bag and reached inside, telling Metcalf to “touch me and see what happens,” according to the police document.
- No one was aware that Anthony had a weapon.
- One witness says Metcalf touched Anthony, and another says he grabbed Anthony.
- Anthony immediately pulled a knife out of the backpack and stabbed Metcalf in the chest.
- Anthony then fled the scene.
- Metcalf grabbed his chest and told his teammates to get help before he passed away in his brother’s arms.
- When police caught Anthony, an officer said: “I have the alleged suspect,” which prompted Anthony to say, “I’m not alleged, I did it.”
- Once inside the police cruiser, Anthony asked if Metcalf was okay and if what he did would be considered self-defense.

Karmelo Anthony, the kid who killed Austin Metcalf.
Hear me out.
My belief is that most of the stuff you’re seeing on this app defending Anthony is bought and paid for by his defense team and the leftist NGOs agitating for racial conflict. It’s not organic. You pay key race-bait influencers to post stuff in his defense and then you let groupthink and racial idolatry take over. Next thing you know a cut-and-dry case becomes a clickable, ratings-driving narrative about America’s “racial” history and “unfair” criminal justice system. This is the matrix at work doing what it’s designed to do — divide black and white and distract from truth.
We’re in a battle of good vs evil. Unfortunately, black Americans have been brainwashed into the demonic “black culture” religion established by Hollywood and the music industry.
We should pray for deliverance and point to Christ and the Cross. All else is noise and plays into the hands of our enemy, Satan. Thanks for reading.

Karmelo Anthony stabbed Metcalf in the heart and his defense team is putting Metcalf on trial through social media. This is a well-organized strategy. They’ve already succeeded in turning the discussion into “bullying.” There’s no proof bullying was involved. https://t.co/mf4CNRokvy

The family mentioned the photo of him with a gun. They said it was only an airsoft gun. In the photo, he appears to be trying to look like a cool gangster.
Democrats and the media: “White supremacy is the biggest threat to America.”

The GoFundMe for Austin Metcalf has collected $250,000.
Karmelo should not have been there in the first place and should get life or death for stabbing Metcalf, but Metcalf playing tough guy may have led him to his own death. (downvote away)
One witness says Metcalf touched Anthony, and another says he grabbed Anthony.
Whichever occurred, anyone with any sense, knows that you do not put your hands on a black unless you are ready for a serious, potentially deadly fight as blacks are the most violent and low impulse race.
Karmelo reaching into a bag should have clued Metcalf on what would happen next, but apparently, it did not register mentally.
Same reason a white does not stroll into a ghetto staring hard at everyone or ‘hard walking’, or shouting ‘n1gger’. If you do, you had better be ready.
White children tend to be only taught by their parents of a reality that is only experienced at home, which is very different from real-life reality, that results in White children applying the ‘rules’ of the false reality to actual life, which does not end well many times.
I have even seen whites say some very snide and hateful things to blacks unprovoked. And it amazed me at how they were entirely clueless that they could have been seriously maimed or killed.
The ‘Leave it to Beaver’ ‘pie in the sky’ America has been dead for ages. Adapt to the new order, perish or change it. And i do not see whites changing anything back to ‘Ozzy and Harriet’ for the long term future. Europe is already lost. America is near that point.
All of that money should be confiscated by the government and given to the family of the crime victim. This country is full of anti-White racists, and collecting money for a victim of a hate crime is itself a hate crime.
All that money donated for the defense of this demon by those anti-White racists should be confiscated and turned over to the grieving family of Austin Metcalf. Burn in Hell, Karmelo Anthony!
This demonic punk is almost as ugly as St. George Floyd. Before you know it, they’ll have murals of this pr*ck wearing angel wings.
That poor little boy. Karmelo (Trayvon) is just a poor misunderstood product of racism.
Black Lives Matter has taken up the cause probably because he’s black and the victim is white
And also because……KA-CHING!!!……Gonna make bank….No doubt the family is heavily invested in T-Shirts and other trinkets to ride this cash cow out and looking for a reason to burn cities down…
How did he fear for his life if the other guy didnt have a knife or gun. Did he think the guy would be allowed to beat him to death in the middle of a stadium with others all around? Ya would like to see this fly in a courtroom. Put me on the jury coach I’m ready to go in
You don’t stab someone to death when they’re not threatening your life and just pushing you away.
So, a “respectful, well-mannered young man” is one who illegally brings a knife to school, provokes a response by sitting under a shade canopy where he doesn’t belong, and then stabs a white teen in the heart when asked to sit elsewhere?
This just goes to show you the sickness that is the left
What is the proof or evidence that the thug was pushed enough to take someone’s life?
This was done by True Gang BANGER
looking to Kill
why
the left has its WITCHES
Hypnosis is REAL
This is NO CHILD
It was GROOMED
SAN DIEGO
70’S Little girl
her quote
I DON’T LIKE MONDAYS
Shot up and killed people at the opening bell

over and OVER And still so FEW
BELIVE EVIL IS REAL
DEMONS are groomed
The LEFT needs a RACE WAR
A CLASS WAR
All the same SCRIPT
SAME PLAY BOOK
Just different names
FOUNDERS
They Knew EVIL UP CLOSE AND VERY PERSONAL
SECOND AMENDMENT
May not have stopped this
But it’s handler may never have been able to
GROOM THIS MONSTER TO KILL
Blood lust in it it would have been seen and KILLED
Only racist dopes would contribute money to save this punk. If a white boy had killed a black boy, these same racists would be burning down businesses to get their way. America is sick of these demented f*ckers.
Many angry black militant murderers created by the democratic party for political power and on demand social unrest when they need it.
Anthony is a murderer by his own stupidity for not seeing he was used and violence training by his parents, friends and democratic party.
With all the good positive things they said about Carmelo does not give him a pass to stab someone in the heart.
America does not have a race problem.
America has a problem race.
my late late father used to beleive the adage ” you can take someone out of the jungle but cant take the jungle our of the person”.
He’s roll in his grave if he saw what the USA has become
The lawyers will eat that money & the murderer will still go to jail.
Charge and try as an adult.
The boy came to instigate something. He brought a knife concealed in a bag to a school event that forbids weapons. He made a verbal threat and provided no chance for the real victim, the dead boy to retreat or de-escalate. Seems premeditated. Under no law anywhere in the world can non lethal force justify a lethal response. This is a legal standard, he must have feared for his life prior to escalation. Self defense in any degree should not be admissible.
So the thug BROUGHT A KNIFE to a sporting event, murders a white child in front of everyone and the animal is claiming self defense when nobody attacked him?????
black privilege.
and I’ll bet most of the money came from white people. whites are so ate up with “white guilt” that they will go against their own race and not think anything of it. if this is not corrected the white race is over, and so is America.
White liberals, especially women, are very dense and childlike. They are the first ones to board the railcars.
Enthusiastically, too.
Let’s switch this around and it’s a black kid that got murdered Do you think the white kid would have 148k given to him ? The Actions of the Left is unbelievable . The World has been turned upside down and shaken , not stirred .
shows you who has the real privilege.
the white kids family would have to go into hiding, and blm that phoney ruse to garner white peoples money, would come back to life.
Stay strong and don’t fall for this nonsense. Stand up and call it out.. Protest in the streets if you have to. I don’t care if you are purple. If you do the crime do the time. If you commit murder you deserve a trial and an executioner.
They described him as a“respectful, well-mannered young man” with “multiple college offers” and a “4.0 student.”
That’s how you know it complete manure.
The black murderers are ALWAYS described as model studnts and “good boys.”
Everything you see about this case is fake and ghey.
