MCKINNEY, Texas (NewsNation) — A jury has reached a verdict in the murder trial of Karmelo Anthony, who is accused of killing 17-year-old Austin Metcalf following a confrontation at a track meet after about three hours of deliberation.
The jury is expected to announce its verdict at 2:05 pm (Central).
Anthony, now 19, is charged in the 2025 death of Metcalf at a track meet outside of Dallas. The case has drawn national attention and featured emotional testimony from more than 20 prosecution witnesses who were in court last week.
The jury only had to consider the single charge of first-degree murder.

I hope so remember how fast the oj jury came back and look what happened but that was a mostly black jury
The real Karmelo was out to kill a white kid...claim self defense, and get 7 years max....for street cred IMHO
Now the jury can consider manslaughter vs murder!?
Holy cow? Are those real pics of Anthony?
2-20 years for manslaughter?
I don’t think that’s correct.
Manslaughter is an option.
Outside the courthouse the chimp out is already underway.
Wrong. The judge also threw Antony a bone by allowing a lesser verdict of manslaughter.
Al Sharpton call your office....
Start the looting, burning and rioting in 10...9...8...7...
Of all the people to defend this cold blooded killer is the last person they should be wasting their time on
Shocking in MCKINNEY Texas?
The judge needs to be disbarred.
The judge put manslaughter on the table at the last minute so maybe they all just went for that to get consensus. It’ll be interesting to find out.
Yup...unlike this one. Gonna be fun time in Huntsville, TX for Mr. Anthony:
Guilty of murder!
Guilty of Murder.
Ha!
GUILTY OF MURDER....................
Verdict read, Karmelo Anthony taken into custody of the jail/bailiff!
