The jury returned a verdict of guilty of murder in the trial of Karmelo Anthony on Tuesday, June 9. Anthony had been charged with the April 2025 killing of Austin Metcalf at a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas. The jury deliberated for about 3 hours. About 100 protesters backing Anthony were outside the courthouse on Tuesday. Anthony did not take the stand in his own defense.
 

During the trial, Anthony's defense claimed that their client had acted in self-defense when he plunged a knife into 17-year-old Metcalf's torso, fatally wounding him. In the days following the fatal stabbing, an arrest report revealed that Anthony said "I’m not alleged, I did it," in response to an officer who radioed in, "I have the alleged suspect."

Anthony had been charged with first-degree murder, however, jurors were told ahead of deliberations that they could also consider a lesser charge of manslaughter.
