Alleged teenage killer Karmelo Anthony has been moved into hiding after he and his family were slammed with death threats at their home.

Anthony, who stands accused of stabbing and killing 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a track meet in Frisco, Texas on April 2, walked free from jail on April 14 after his bond was reduced from $1 million to $250,000.

As ordered by Judge Angela Tucker mandated Anthony, 17, was placed on house arrest.

But the alleged murderer has been removed from his family's home to an undisclosed location as they worry for his safety, according to a Next Generation Action Network (NCAN) news release from Monday morning.

NCAN, the North Texas civil rights group advocating for Anthony and his family, said the court-approved decision to move him was to 'ensure his immediate safety.'

This comes as an 'alarming increase in death threats, continued harassment, and physical intimidation targeted at the family's home' have rolled in over the past few days, the nonprofit group claimed.

NGAN shared images of the alleged harassment - including strangers approaching their home and sending them copies of Metcalf's obituary.

The family has also received fake food deliveries and been approached by people trying to intimidate them, FOX 5 reported.

The courts will likely not convict him because he “might be in danger were he to go to prison”

Wait until this cold blooded murderer gets into the joint. He’s going to have a rough time staying alive.

He would likely try to join up with an in-prison black gang for protection. His finances might help get others' support, too.

The blacks will likely shake him down, ransom his safety. Fail to pay, see what happens. If he goes in worth money everyone will want a piece of him. No honor among thieves.
