The thug Karmelo Anthony fucked around, now he’s finding out.. After getting a rather weak and light sentence for first degree murder of Austin Melcalf, the thug is now being kept away from the Collin County general prison population as fears for his “safety” are now a thing…
Karmelo Anthony was sentenced to 35 years in prison for murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf. However, his time in prison will begin in isolation.
According to a report from TMZ Sports, a representative for the Collin County Jail confirms that, for now, Anthony will be held in a remote part of the jail away from the general population, out of concern for his safety.
“We’re told the jail is taking appropriate steps to ensure the safety and security of all inmates in the facility … but the rep declined to comment on why Anthony specifically is being kept in isolation,” TMZ Sports reports.
Anthony was found guilty of murder for the April 2, 2025, killing of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf.
Both Anthony and Metcalf were in attendance at a regional track meet at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco, Texas. Anthony, then a student at Frisco Centennial High School, took shelter from the rain in the Frisco Memorial tent, where Metcalf and his teammates were based.
According to eyewitnesses, Frisco Memorial athletes told Anthony to leave their tent “roughly 15 times.” Each time, Anthony refused to leave. Eventually, Anthony reached into his bag and warned Frisco Memorial players, including Metcalf, what would happen if they tried to remove him.
