Karmelo Anthony Seeks $250K for Murder Appeal Amid Scrutiny of Family’s Earlier $634K Fundraiser
The family says the money will cover legal fees, experts and other appeal costs after an earlier campaign raised $633,908.
- Karmelo Anthony's family launched a $250,000 fundraising campaign for his murder appeal during a Dallas news conference, nearly two weeks after a judge denied his request for a new trial.
- This request follows an earlier GiveSendGo campaign that raised $633,908 before being removed from public view following Anthony's conviction, sparking public questions regarding how those donations were managed.
- Lead attorney Russell Wilson stated the new funds will cover legal fees and expert witnesses, noting Anthony's initial defense costs alone exceeded $300,000.
- Trial records are expected to be assembled in Oct, with written arguments and a potential hearing to follow at the Fifth Court of Appeals.
- Dominique Alexander of the Next Generation Action Network declined to discuss how previous donations were used, contributing to continued skepticism surrounding the family's latest financial request.
