Fundraiser for Accused Killer of TX Football Star Austin Metcalf Rakes in Nearly $90K
Breitbart News ^ | April 6, 2025 | Katherine Hamilton

A fundraiser for a Texas teen accused of fatally stabbing Austin Metcalf garnered nearly $90,000 in donations from more than 2,400 donors on Sunday, as the teen claims he acted in self-defense.

“The GiveSendGo campaign was purportedly set up by the family of Karmelo Anthony, 17, who cops say confessed to the horrific stabbing at a track meet in Frisco, Texas, last Wednesday,” the New York Post reported.

Where there is spark, usually there is fire. The force feeding will stop soon enough.

However, that touch has gained the murderer sympathy in some quarters. And might get him off with a lesser charge. It all depends on the jury.

Given the clear cut nature of this murder it is safe to assume those supporting the murderer do so because they hate whites, or they hate Christians, or they resent those with decent supportive families. Those evil pigs don’t need any pretext and the murderer would have just as much support no matter what events transpired.

LOL, I said the same thing on another thread yesterday and was called “retarded” - for assuming the killer was looking for loot, which other kids had accused him of doing.

Good thing this was in Texas and not California - he’d already be out on bail - and a lefty judge and jury would find the self-defense plea entirely plausible and let him escape justice - all while vilifying the White kid.

Those who donated to this killer’s fund are truly pathetic.

I know people are angry. What concerns me is how angry are the skinheads? We pray they are not turned loose.

Guess the family is used to having people pray for them...have to wonder why!

I don’t think anyone is going to get violent in favor of the victim. Partly because it is likely that justice will be done, if not to the degree FR would like. Collin County is populated by foreigners who want good schools for their kids and Americans who don’t want to put up with the s&!t that occurs in Dallas.

It only takes one white hating bigot to get this murderer off but he may not get it given the county.

You don’t actually think his momma will spend the money on his defense, do you? Nah. She’ll buy clothes and a vacation and he’ll get a public defender.

Should be illegal to fundraise off crime, especially murder. Grotesque imbeciles and race hucksters.

How retarded does one have to be, to send money to a known murderer?

What goes through their minds?

Some things I’ve been wondering about:
1) Were there black athletes on the same team as Metcalf? Or Hispanic, Native American, etc.?
2) If so, were black athletes present in the team tent?
3) Did the murderer’s team have a tent?
4) Was there a policy or tradition that track teams stayed in their own areas? In football, baseball, basketball, hockey, etc., members of the opposing teams are separated; this avoids conflicts, spying on plans/strategy, etc.
5) Did members of other track teams typically enter their opponents’ tents/assembly areas at this meet, and hang out during the competition?
6) WHY did Karmelo Anthony go into the opposing team’s canopy?
7) WHY did Karmelo Anthony bring nto the canopy a knife concealed in a satchel? Did he plan for or fear mortal combat? If so, why go there?

$90K is a start but medical school costs way more than that, so dig deep, folks, so this good kid can contribute to mankind.

GiveSendGo can't manage this fund. They've already said they will have nothing to do with racist hate crimes, so they can't offer their services in this case.

There is a side of this story that the victim laid hands on the accused first. While the knifing was obviously not an appropriate level of response, the victim is not 100% innocent either.

This is the story I pieced together from reading several articles on this topic.

Nasty little obnoxious thug wore a backpack to the tent where players valuables were stored. The mother of the stabbed player told him he wasn't supposed to be in that tent. He smarted off with his obnoxious mouth telling her to mind her own business, perhaps threatening her.

Her son overheard the incident, and walked over to the nasty little piece of sh*t and told him to leave. He said something along the lines of "touch me and see what happens."

The guy then grabbed the nasty little piece of sh*t's arm, and the nasty little piece of sh*t stabbed him in the heart.

Then the nasty little piece of sh*t took off running.

Here are some not so flattering pictures of the nasty little piece of sh*t which might give you a better idea of who this nasty little piece of sh*t is.

The victim evidently put his hand on the murderer to get him to move. That was a very stupid thing to do.

You are right. He should have either threatened to bash his head in with a baseball bat, or pull a gun and tell him to get our or he would be shot.

It was very dumb to approach this nasty little thug without a more dangerous weapon.

I cannot imagine anyone donating one cent to pay for his defense. Unbelievable to me.

6) WHY did Karmelo Anthony go into the opposing team’s canopy?

The player's valuables are kept there. They leave their wallets, their phones, their jewelry and anything else they normally carry with them. They put them into bags and leave them in the tent.

This little hoodlum shows up with a back pack. Who walks around with a back pack nowadays?

I suppose you could take stuff out of the player's bags, and the back pack would make it easy to carry anything you stole.
