New Trial Hearing Bombshell: Karmelo Anthony’s Ex Reported Him for Stalking an Hour Before He Stabbed Austin Metcalf to Death, Texts Show Him Fantasizing About Stabbing Someone and Licking the Blood

Wirskye also shared texts in which Anthony expressed being “on the verge” and fantasized about stabbing someone and licking the blood from the blade.

The prosecutor told the court that Anthony’s girlfriend, Valeria Perez, went to school officials that very morning and reported that she had broken up with him and that he was stalking her.

Roughly one hour later, Metcalf was stabbed to death under the Memorial High School tent at David Kuykendall Stadium.

He died in his twin brother's arms.

Text messages recovered from that morning show Anthony writing “I’m low key on the verge,” a statement Wirskye emphasized as evidence that he was looking for trouble.

The prosecutor further revealed that Anthony had a history of violence, had previously been taken by his parents to a special program at LSU for children who could not keep their hands to themselves, and was obsessed with starting fights.

Most chillingly, Wirskye shared a text in which Anthony fantasized about stabbing someone and then licking the blood off the blade, adding that Anthony “wanted to stab someone.”

KARMELO ANTHONY BOMBSHELL: Karmelo Anthony's girlfriend, Valeria, went to the school the morning of the Austin Metcalf stabbing, April 2, 2025, and told school officials she had broken up with Anthony and he was stalking her. One hour later, Austin was dead at the track meet,…

Like with most of these violent perps, I figure the world would be better off with them hanging on a rope in the public square with birds pecking out their eyes.

Is there a reason that none of this was brought up in his first trial?

Inquiring minds and all that...

That is unsanitary.

Hanging followed by cremation.

Plastination of the head for display can be used if you want a visual aid.

“Is there a reason that none of this was brought up in his first trial?”

Yes: “The jury never heard about Anthony’s disturbing history, or about Metcalf’s juvenile criminal record because of a “gentleman’s agreement” with the 19-year-old’s defense ahead of his murder trial, Collin County Assistant District Attorney Bill Wirskye revealed... In exchange for prosecutors not using that evidence in court, the defense lawyers agreed not to bring up victim Austin Metcalf’s juvenile criminal history, which included graffiti that included ‘vile racist stuff.’”

“...text message where he fantasizes about stabbing someone and licking the blood off the blade,” Wirkskye said of Anthony. He was obsessed with starting fights, Wirskye added, revealing Anthony had previously been taken to his parents to a special program at LSU for kids who can’t keep their hands to themselves. These details were part of a 404 motion the state had prepared regarding character and prior acts, which the defense had sought to keep out of the original trial.”

Hard to fathom why these material facts were withheld from the jury. And the killer’s lawyers, presumably knowing this, want to revisit the case? Wow. The race card evaporates when it’s shown that Anthony’s motive was anger over the breakup, and him looking for someone to stab to death. The bastard went to the tent to find the opportunity.

I should send this to Rev. Darrell Scott so he can spew that whites are worse. He’s supposed to be MAGA, a big Trump supporter..
He’s not and he’s a problem. He’s on x defending George Floyd and all black criminals. He’s an absolute bigot.

No one can convince me that this was a “nation honor student.” That doesn’t mix with ghetto.
