Description

Karmelo Anthony has begun serving his 35-year prison sentence for the murder of Austin Metcalf and has already filed an appeal, claiming he is indigent and requesting a court-appointed attorney despite hundreds of thousands of dollars previously raised through online fundraisers. Anthony's parents continue to insist he acted in self-defense, criticize the trial as unfair, question their son's legal representation, and say they are seeking new counsel for the appeal. Meanwhile, the judge who oversaw the case defended the jury's verdict, dismissed allegations of bias, and described Anthony as "a nice young man who committed a crime" who now understands the consequences of his actions. Law&Crime’s Chris Stewart is On the Case.

To Karmelos mom respectfully, your son is literally by definition a murderer.

Those parents need to stop calling everyone a liar, racists, and bias without following that up with some substance.

Even a new trial will show that he stabbed an unarmed kid in the heart.
