Last thoughts on Karmelo Anthony before he disappears for a long time:

- The defense only called 6 witnesses and rested abruptly
- The only person to speak on his behalf during the punishment phase was his mother.
- The defense didn’t even think to prepare him to testify on his own behalf

Additionally, there were no teachers, counselors, church members, etc. willing to discuss his character in court and plead for him to have another chance at life. Nobody could vouch he was really a good kid and was going to be a contributing member of society someday.

The jury heard closing statements, deliberated, found him guilty, then completed the punishment phase all in one day.

In other words, there was no way to adequately defend or humanize this animal.

Hunter Metcalf asked Karmelo Anthony to look at him during this victim impact statement.
“If you could just look me in the eye while I speak, I would really respect that,” Hunter said.
Karmelo looked down the entire time Austin spoke.

The biggest cope in the world is downwardly mobile college grads convincing themselves that their college classmates who majored in something uncool like accounting “sold out” and are “evil.”

No one asked for electricity. Capitalism just forced it on us. But we can still go live like the Amish.

"At least you can eat almonds, you can't eat a data center." I was genuinely not prepared for how stupid the people on the other side of this argument would be.
