Friends and relatives of 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony, the Texas high school student accused of fatally stabbing another teen, are promoting t-shirts with his face on them with slogans like “FreeMelo” and “#Justice4KarmeloAnthony.” When he was taken into custody after the fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf at a Frisco High School track meet, Anthony admitted that he was the killer.
A website selling the shirts describes Anthony as “just a small town kid, raised in a loving two parent household,” and goes on to paint a portrait of him as a model youth.
“Karmelo, A 4.0 student. A football team captain. A leader, a protector, a role model. Karmelo Anthony is the kind of young man every parent hopes to raise. He speaks with respect. He takes care of his younger siblings and little cousins. He works hard, stays out of trouble, and carries himself with dignity,” the website states.
Anthony was arrested earlier this month after authorities said he stabbed fellow student Austin Metcalf during a confrontation at a high school track meet. According to police, the dispute began when Metcalf told Anthony he was sitting under the wrong team’s tent and asked him to leave. A witness claimed Anthony replied, “Touch me and see what happens,” before the altercation turned physical. Metcalf was fatally stabbed and died in the arms of his twin brother.

God bless and protect Austin Metcalf’s family and all who loved him.
What a shameful sham that another MURDERER is being idolized by our evil press and leftists.
Makin’ money off of dead white people.
POS murderer, he has a likely career in pro sports or hollyweird.
Crime pays and apparently it pays pretty well.
Thankfully God isn’t fooled by man and will deal with each accordingly, in time.
I can’t wrap my head around this....the kid admitted to killing the other young man, but he is being heralded as some kind of saint. and his family is cashing in bigly.
That whole family needs vigilante justice.
#KillKarmelo
Is there anyone out there who doesn’t understand our new justice system?
This sure turned into a cluster... Metcalf’s father should have kept his mouth shut about how he felt about the murder of his son. I don’t think he’ll be seeing any justice for his murdered son anytime soon. Karmelo is on his way to Rock Stardom.
“ Crime pays and apparently it pays pretty well”
…only if you’re black or illegal
Surreal, ain’t it? Welcome to America in 2025...
Just like Luigi Mangione.
That does not appear to be the case.
He works hard and stays out of trouble.
Yes, I guess, except for when he stabbed somebody, he stays out of trouble.
Got it.
Murder is virtuous to Communists.
