Austin Metcalf's Father Not Happy With School Decision

  • Seventeen-Year-Old Karmelo Anthony, a senior with strong academic standing at Frisco Centennial High School, is charged with first-degree murder after fatally stabbing Austin Metcalf during a track event in Collin County, Texas, last April.
  • The stabbing followed a verbal altercation that escalated in under 30 seconds, reportedly involving bullying by Metcalf toward Anthony over a tent at the event.
  • Anthony acknowledged his involvement in the stabbing incident at the scene and asserted it was an act of self-defense, a legal position supported by his family, while the school district prohibited him from participating in events such as the graduation ceremony.
  • A negotiated agreement with the Next Generation Action Network allows Anthony to receive his diploma privately, as his family faces legal challenges and reported death threats.
  • Anthony's case is ongoing, highlighting concerns about the justice system's treatment of Black youth and raising questions about supervision and safeguards in schools.
