Karmelo Anthony was sentenced to 35 years in prison for murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf. However, his time in prison will begin in isolation.

According to a report from TMZ Sports, a representative for the Collin County Jail confirms that, for now, Anthony will be held in a remote part of the jail away from the general population, out of concern for his safety.

“We’re told the jail is taking appropriate steps to ensure the safety and security of all inmates in the facility … but the rep declined to comment on why Anthony specifically is being kept in isolation,” TMZ Sports reports.

Anthony was found guilty of murder for the April 2, 2025, killing of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf.

WTF! Out of concern for his safety! HIS SAFETY! F this worthless POS. To paraphrase a line from the Shawshank Redemption, “Throw him down with the Sodomites”

He better learn the "quart of blood" technique.

The dude behind Mr. Valentine is none other than Giancarlo Esposito, better known as Gus Fring from Breaking Bad.

You know it is quite possible that this killer was put up to doing this as a gang initiation. Some of these gangs require that you kill someone to be part of their gang.

Thing is, you are not supposed to get caught.

It is wrong for him to have special safety.

His innocent victim did not have ANY safety.

updated mug shot:

Karmelo Anthony looked stunned in a new mugshot as he was transferred to a Texas prison to begin his 35-year sentence for murdering fellow high school athlete Austin Metcalf. Anthony, 19, appeared with his head shaved and wearing a sleeveless tunic in the mug shot, obtained by CBS 11.

As someone raised in part by a black woman, this thing has me really angry. Anthony wasn’t supposed to be there. Why did he go?
