Karmelo Anthony Home!

Karmelo Anthony is home. The danger is still there. His family and attorney gotten death threats.

Texas teen is out after posting a hefty bail. He is on house arrest and many people are coming to his defense.

However, the white extremists are out too. They are calling for racial warfare.

These are the same people who cheered George Zimmerman, Kyle Rittenhouse, Daniel Penny, Daniel Perry and Darren Wilson.

They are fucking ridiculous.

Yet, these extremists made the case about race. The same folks who complain about DEI and innocence until proven guilty have already condemned, shamed and demanded Democrats react to this incident.

Conservatives demand Black Lives Matter, Rev. Al Sharpton, former president Barack Obama, former vice president Kamala Harris and the NAACP react to every fucking criminal act done by a Black person.

The teen is accused of murdering another teen after a physical altercation. It is national news and another racial situation the far right is exploiting.

In order to take the country away from President Donald J. Trump's colossal fuck ups, the far right needs to keep their racially angry base riled up going into 2026.

Due process is thrown out when it's a Black teen, a Black man, a Muslim, a Palestinian or a Latino.

If it's a white man, they are assumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

If they're guilty, the far right will deny it. They will claim that the George Soros appointed district attorney was bought and paid for.

The $1 million bond has been reduced for the 17-year-old student charged with murder in the stabbing of another student at a Texas high school track meet.

White people do not see this as a threat.

Karmelo Anthony, a student at Frisco Centennial High School, was detained following the deadly stabbing, which occurred at a Frisco Independent School District stadium on April 2 during a track and field championship involving multiple schools in the district.

Austin Metcalf, 17, an 11th grader at Frisco Memorial High School, died after police said another student stabbed him during an altercation in the bleachers at the meet.

Anthony was initially held on $1 million bond. During a hearing on Monday, a Collin County judge set his bond at $250,000, online court records show.

Should he post bond, he has been ordered to be on house arrest, be supervised by a parent or designated adult at all times and have no contact with Metcalf's family, according to court records. He also needs prior court approval to leave the house and must check in with the court bailiff weekly until the case is indicted into a different court, the court records show.

Judge Angela Tucker said she considered several factors in setting the new bond amount, including Anthony's age, lack of past criminal history and close ties to the community, Dallas ABC affiliate WFAA reported.

The racial extremists are swamping his social media with hate.

Members of both teens' families attended the hearing, according to WFAA.

Anthony is newly represented by Dallas defense attorney Mike Howard, who asked for $150,000 bond, according to WFAA. The prosecution argued the Anthony family was able to pay the $1 million bond through funds raised through the platform GiveSendGo, according to WFAA. The fundraiser had more than $416,000 in donations as of Monday afternoon. Anthony's father told the court the family doesn't have access to those funds yet, WFAA reported.

ABC News has reached out to Howard for comment.

The Dallas-based social justice organization Next Generation Action Network, which is advocating for Anthony, said the reduced bond "gives Karmelo and his family a much-needed window of relief and a chance to prepare for the road ahead."

"The Next Generation Action Network is currently working with the Anthony family to get the bond processed and will keep the community updated regarding his release," the organization said in a statement on X.

The stabbing occurred under the Memorial High School tent in the stadium bleachers at approximately 10 a.m. on April 2, according to the arrest report.

Responding officers said they spoke to multiple witnesses, including one who reported the altercation began after Metcalf told Anthony to move out from under their team's tent, according to the arrest report.

The witness reported that Anthony allegedly reached inside his bag and said, "Touch me and see what happens," according to the arrest report.

Metcalf grabbed Anthony to move him, according to a witness, and Anthony allegedly pulled out what the witness described as a black knife and "stabbed Austin once in the chest and then ran away," the arrest report stated.

Anthony allegedly confessed to the killing and officers say he told them he was protecting himself, according to the arrest report.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
