More On His Conviction & Sentencing
As The Shade Room previously reported, Karmelo Anthony was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to 35 years in prison on Tuesday, June 9. Furthermore, the decision was handed down by an all-white jury following the fatal stabbing of fellow high school student Austin Metcalf on April 2, 2025. The stabbing reportedly occurred after an apparent conflict during a track meet.
Subsequently, his lawyers reportedly filed their notice of appeal. This, as his alleged uncle and parents spoke on his sentencing, and as a new mugshot of the 19-year-old surfaced.
