So I guess playing the victim, after killing someone with a knife still pays well, if you are a black person who killed a white person. Karmelo Anthony, a 17-year-old accused of fatally stabbing Austin Metcalf at a track meet in Frisco, Texas, on April 2, 2025, is currently on house arrest after his bond was reduced from $1 million to $250,000. His family has raised over $430,000 through an online fundraiser, reportedly to cover legal defense, security, and relocation costs due to threats received after the incident. News reports indicate the family plans to move into a new house, possibly in a gated community, for safety reasons, using part of the donated funds. Some sources mention they are renting a home in the Richwoods gated community in Frisco, Texas estimated at $3,500 per month, though claims about purchasing a new home (e.g., a “3500 square-foot mansion worth over $800K”) appear in X posts but lack confirmation from primary sources.
Must be nice…

Karmelo Anthony’s family is profiting off of him admittedly k*lling Austin Metcalf.
The Anthonys have received over $430k from their GiveSendGo fundraiser.
They’re using it partly to buy a new house.
Karmelo needs to spend the rest of his life, not in a new house, but in jail. pic.twitter.com/ytJBT4x2kq
