Defense Takes Stage as Frisco Teen's Murder Trial Moves Forward After Prosecution Rest

Prosecutors rested their case after calling 21 witnesses in the murder trial of Frisco teen Karmelo Anthony, who is accused of fatally stabbing 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a Memorial High School track meet. The defense has begun presenting its case, arguing the killing was justified self-defense. If convicted, Anthony faces 5 to 99 years in prison (not capital murder). The trial is ongoing with more witness testimony and cross-examination as the defense builds its case, and it is set to resume after a weekend recess.
