I read the article and got some context. Apparently, the attacker was inside the tent of the victim's track team, a place he presumably had no business being in. The victim asked him to leave, and when he didn't, the victim grabbed him and tried to remove him from the tent. Then, the accused pulled out his knife and stabbed the victim.

The perp is claiming that when the victim tried to remove him from the tent, this justified fatal violence in response. If he was indeed in a place he had no business being in, HE started it even if the victim was the first to make physical contact.

Anthony's family is saying he wasn't the aggressor, and that he was not the one who started it.”

He wasn't supposed to be there, and chose to ignore the request to leave, which tells me he is the aggressor because he didn't comply with the request. This article says that a witness stated that "Anthony unzipped a bag, reached inside and told Metcalf, 'Touch me and see what happens.'” Now if that isn't aggression, I don't know what is. And I'm sure there are plenty of other witnesses that were under that tent, that will testify to seeing the same thing. The family also claims they're religious. Ha! You might be, but your kid sure ain't.
