Karmelo Anthony’s family is asking supporters to fork over $250,000 to pay for the convicted killer’s appeal after a Texas judge shot down his request for a new trial.
The GiveSendGo fundraiser has already raised $27,000 from grassroots supporters of the 19-year-old, who was sentenced to 35 years in June for the fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf, 17, at a high school track meet in 2025 in Frisco.
“We understand that the pursuit of justice through the appellate system requires tremendous resources. This is why the legal fund has been established,” family spokesperson Dominique Alexander told reporters on Wednesday.
Last month a Collin County judge denied Anthony’s motion for a new trial, but the hearing dragged out evidence kept under wraps via a handshake deal between the prosecution and defense.
Anthony had a history of violent, threatening texts, and his ex-girlfriend reported that he had been stalking her shortly before the stabbing, attorneys claimed.
In exchange for keeping that out of court, the defense agreed to not mention Metcalf’s criminal record stemming from racist graffiti that he and two others allegedly spray painted.
Last-minute squabbles over the deal reportedly forced Anthony’s lawyers to keep him from taking the stand, effectively sinking his case, his new legal team argued during the hearing for retrial.
“So much evidence came out. That evidence showed not only this family but the entire world that he did not receive a fair trial,” Anthony’s co-counsel Sean Daredia told reporters on Wednesday.
But the appeals process could stretch into next year, and much longer if a new trial is granted, his team said.

If they crazed stalker didn’t murder people, they wouldn’t need to raise any money.
How about calling that clown Benjamin Crump. He always shows his sorry ass for attention.
I make it a policy to not donate money to sociopathic murderers.....But that’s just me...........
I’m in.
Even he knows this is a loser.................
If it don’t fit, you gotta acquit.
He went looking for a fight.
He brought a deadly weapon along with him.
He found his fight, and he used the weapon.
“””I make it a policy to not donate money to sociopathic murderers.....But that’s just me...........””””
THAT’S RAYCISSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! /s
Didn’t they buy a house and a new SUV With some of the money that was donated to them before?
Just saying, I think there were financial irregularities with some of the money that people gave to them in the past.
😁.....................
Ha HaHa Ha Ha….
Disgusting culture that should take up Ghana’s offer to gove residency to any melanated American.
Grifters gotta grift.
HUTZPAH OF THE HIGHEST DEGREE
What a trashy family from top to bottom. It started with the parents - probably their parents (the grandparents).
Maybe they ought to sell the house and caddy they bought with the previous donations.
Will they take Zimbabwe dollars?
They need to get some nice new cars to go with the new house they bought with Karmelo’s first Go-Fund-Me campaign.
