A female CEO has claimed that a teen boy who was fatally stabbed at a track meet in Texas was bullying the 17-year-old accused of killing him. Stephanie Crutchfield, the owner and CEO of several financial help businesses, left the claim on a donation page for Karmelo Anthony, who is charged with the murder of Austin Metcalf, 17, at at the Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco. She wrote: 'Let's get this baby home. I have a young black son as well, and I live in Collin County. This baby was bullied and was defending himself, I know it's more to this story. I'm praying for you and your family. Please let me know how else I can help.'
There is no evidence that Metcalf was bullying Anthony. Police have said Anthony stabbed Metcalf in the heart, killing him, after Metcalf told him he was sitting in the wrong chair at the match between their two schools last week. Crutchfield, who donated $1,000 to Anthony, later doubled down on her support of Anthony, adding: ' NO I don’t agree with what he did, but it’s more to this story!'This kid had a good future ahead of him as well, and he deserves a great defense attorney!'
Anthony's family has claimed in the GiveSendGo donation page that 'the narrative being spread' about Austin's killing is 'false, unjust, and harmful.' 'As a family of faith, we are deeply grateful for all of your support during this trying period. Your prayers and assistance mean more to us now more than ever,' the statement added.The donation page for him has collected more than $170,000 as of Monday afternoon EST.
