Looks like the communist left has a new swatting target.. Now they are doing to Austin Metcalf’s father… You know who Austin Metcalf was right? He was the white Texas high school student brutally stabbed to death by black student Karmelo Anthony, who is now getting a new house after all the libs donated to his GoFundMe.
Police determined that the call was fake and meant to cause police to harm the family.
The father of slain high school athlete Austin Metcalf was the victim of a swatting attempt just minutes after he was kicked out of the family news conference for Karmelo Anthony, the accused killer.Frisco police said that they responded to a report of a gunshot at the home of the Metcalf family on Thursday. They found no evidence of a shot being fired at the home and determined that the call was an attempt at “swatting,” which is a false call intended to cause harm through a police response.
Jeff Metcalf, the father of the victim, tried to attend the press conference for the Anthony family, but he was spotted by one of the Anthony advocates, who had him escorted out by police. His presence delayed the start of the press conference.
A spokesperson for the Anthony family lambasted “conservative operatives” for spreading what he said was “misinformation” about the family and accused the critics of being motivated by “bigotry” and “racism.”
The suspect’s mother, Kayla Hayes, said the family was under intense scrutiny and was suffering from having to deal with criticism stemming from the incident.
“Whatever you think what happened between Karmelo and the Metcalf boys, my three younger children, my husband, and I didn’t do anything to deserve to be threatened, harassed, and lied about,” she said at the press conference.
“The lies and false accusations that have been said about us, especially over the past week, has been overwhelming. The lies and their amplification put my family in danger,” she added.
“To the family who experienced the loss, my heart truly goes out to you,” Hayes said.
Anthony’s father has said that his son was not the aggressor in the incident.
Jeff Metcalf previously excoriated the suspect’s family for his accused actions.
