Dad of teen accused of stabbing star football player claims son wasn’t ’aggressor’

In the wake of a tragic stabbing that claimed the life of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf, the father of the accused, Karmelo Anthony, is speaking out in an effort to shift public perception. Andrew Anthony, in an emotional interview with the New York Post, described his son as a hard-working teen with a 3.7 GPA,

holding down two jobs, and not the violent figure portrayed in headlines. With the case drawing national attention, the family has launched a fundraiser on GiveSendGo, which has raised over $143,000, insisting that Karmelo acted in self-defense. The campaign challenges the dominant narrative, calling it “false, unjust, and harmful,” despite police statements that Karmelo admitted to the stabbing.

The fatal incident occurred during a track meet at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco, Texas, where Karmelo allegedly stabbed Austin Metcalf in the heart following an argument over seating. Witnesses say the altercation escalated quickly, leading to Austin’s death.

Karmelo’s father firmly maintains that his son was not the aggressor, urging the public to consider that the situation was more complex than it appears. The case has sparked heated debate online and divided the community, with emotions running high on both sides as the legal process unfolds.
