It really seems like people were following two different trials.
The social media trial of sensationalized rumors and public opinion vs the actual facts.
Here are the lies from the social media court:
- He never had a knife. It was a cleat sharpener.
- He got jumped by multiple people.
- It was about race.
- The jury was completely white.
- He’s going to do 35 years.
Here are the facts from the actual case and trial:
- It was a knife (pictured below)
- He was never jumped based on reports from journalists who actually watched the video in court.
- No one testified that racial slurs were thrown around before, during and after the conflict. I was actually surprised that the defense attorney didn’t play the race card. Anthony was simply from the rival school. It was turned into a racial issue based o. The skin color of the two boys involved.
- Though the jury was mostly White, there were Hispanics and Middle Eastern and Indian jurors
- He will be eligible for parole in 17 years.
@NJBeisner Here is that non deadly tool that broke thru the chest bone and sliced the ventricle in half. Btw it left a 3 inch wide gash suggesting it was a hell of alot more slcing force used than juat a puncture wound.
This might explain why fatherlessness is such an epidemic in the black community.
Imagine waking up to this in the morning because you forgot to take the trash out the night before.
We can’t water our lawns but we have to pay for your stupid CoCo Train nobody needs or wants. RTD’s FasTracks rail exploded from $4.7B to $7B+ with low ridership, yet sails through politics and funding. New water storage faces endless NEPA regs, environmental lawsuits, and cost barriers despite drought and growth needs. Priorities favor visible transit pork over practical infrastructure. You’re a joke!
🚨 WATCH: Karmelo Anthony’s grandmother riles up the crowd by REPEATEDLY screaming “RACIST, BIASED, PREJUDICED” as she left the courthouse
“They sent a MESSAGE that a white person can hit a black boy and get away with it! They can do whatever the F—K they want!”
This entire family is disgusting.
It’s pretty clear where Karmelo learned to behave the way he did.
Ok, let's take these one by one...
❌"Public setting, not trespassing"
He sat in another team's tent. Memorial's coach testified team tents are like a team bench. You don't go in uninvited. He was told to leave. He refused.
❌"Was NOT the aggressor"
Witness after witness testified Anthony was the aggressor. Before anyone touched him, he reached into his bag and said "Touch me and see what happens." That's not defense.
❌"Knife was legal per Texas law" (irrelevant)
Owning a knife is legal. Stabbing it through an unarmed 17-year-old's heart is not. Nobody was charged with possession. He was charged with MURDER. The jury agreed. Even his OWN COACH testified there's no reason an athlete has a knife at a track meet.
❌"Was attacked by two low IQ thugs"
Nobody testified to that. The one defense witness who claimed Anthony was surrounded admitted under cross it happened AFTER the stabbing. Surveillance showed he wasn't even looking when it happened. And the "thug" was an unarmed honor student, by the way.
❌"Karmelo Anthony is 100% innocent"
A unanimous jury heard 21 witnesses, watched five camera angles, and needed only 3 hours to say otherwise: guilty of murder.
Austin Metcalf got a hole in his heart for asking someone to leave a tent... justice was served.
🚨 NOW: A Karmelo Anthony supporter just CALLED FOR MURDER against Austin Metcalf's twin brother
"They BOTH should've been dead! Both brothers!"
THIS is who the Anthony supporters are.
They believe white lives don't matter!
And the left defends them.
