If Karmelo Anthony was my son, I would’ve been at Jeff Metcalf’s family’s door begging for peace and forgiveness.
Not raising hundreds of thousands of dollars, crying broke for a public defender, and turning the whole thing into a racial circus.
Metcalf’s family showed more restraint than most people ever could.
Monetizing your child’s worst moment instead of owning it and trying to make things right with the family he destroyed doesn’t look like love.
It looks like exploitation.
Austin Metcalf pushed Karmelo Anthony first. That has been repeatedly confirmed by the prosecution’s witnesses. Today, a witness also said Metcalf became irritated and asked Anthony to leave the tent multiple times. That same witness also said Metcalf put both hands on Anthony’s shoulders and pushed him.
Once finalized, the move would bring the Bears across state lines into Indiana, ending decades of speculation surrounding potential stadium sites in Illinois.
