Witness Testimony Highlights Texas Track Meet Stabbing Case

In Frisco, Texas, a male student testified in the Karmelo Anthony stabbing case that he only learned how badly the victim was injured after 17-year-old Austin Metcalf lifted his shirt to reveal a large wound. Prosecutors say the stabbing was unjustified provoked murder, while the defense argues self-defense. The case has drawn attention to racial dynamics surrounding the defendants and victims. If convicted, Anthony could face five years to life; he was 17 at the time and is under house arrest on bond, with a crowdfunding effort aiding his defense.
