Holy crap just a reminder that no one hates CNN enough.

I will now go back to giving myself a timeout from clicking on this thread until the trial.
Edit for profanity in x post. I think that's a real CNN headline image. Hopefully not.
Edit 2: it is fake. Article author. Sorry, saw it twice and fell for it. I still hate CNN.
Great His victim's family is 400K richer, because they will sue in civil court and win.

You think that money is going to not be spent post haste?

I have been told the Metcalf family can't go after this money because it is technically not being raised by them. Someone else is raising it and then providing for the family with the funds. It makes me wonder how the taxes on all of this work.
oh no

have they killed as many people as the Proud Boyz or Oath Keepers? (which I believe is a grand total of zero, one less than Karamelo Anthony).
oh no

gift tax should be in play here; at least for the ones over the limit

That money will probably be in a lawyer's trust account by now. To be distributed as the gang sees fit.

Anyone else catch the double standard in the article about the protest near the stadium.

When news was talking about the person that led it, they were sure to mention he was a Jan 6er.

But every time the mention the "NGAN", "Next Gen Action Network" or Alexander they never say, "a convicted felon"

I'm not sure what you're going on about, but the ones you're all fluster d about are prison gangs and I'm 100% certain their death toll is >0

Wow, how could yall fall for such an obvious photoshop. The media is pretty bad these day, but c'mon. Use some common sense or at least a little fact checking.


Just par for the course with some. No matter how obvious the lie, if it fits their agenda, they lap it up. And each and every side has its fair share

In fact, SWIFS covers from the Sabine River, up to the Red River and as far west as Nolan and Mitchell Counties. They are the best in the state, especially when testifying, and they never say no to any jurisdiction, as far as I know.

They are busy people.

With all of those edits, you could have edited out the fake image completely.

If the property belongs to them, then can go after that.

Sure, but why? Fake, but accurate, after all. The family hired a race baiter as their PR agent, I could see CNN writing a similar story sometime in the next few months.

I made 2 edits within 10 minutes of posting it while drinking coffee. I sure won't apologize for my low opinion of CNN. Probably only 5 people read it before my last edit, and I was rightly mocked for it, so whatever, it's not misleading anyone since.

He has not been indicted yet. Why not?

Murder one is a little harder to prove, in my opinion. Manslaughter (hear me out) is more appropriate with additional charges over having the knife, also having the knife on school property. (Which still seems weird to me because of my age with every PU having a loaded gun rack in the rear view window was common) but my concern here is overcharging.

That is not a defense for Anthony on my part, it is looking at what we know thus far. Intent and premeditation hard to prove with we know now. Not a self defense claim, per se. It is not.

So, I'm just warning posters here not to flip out if the indictment is less than what they expect.
The charge will be murder. Intent can be formed in an instant. When you stab someone intentionally in the chest ... it is a murder. This was not recklessly done. Manslaughter is not the appropriate charge.

And this would be lightning fast for a murder indictment. I doubt they even have the full autopsy yet. There is zero rush. He is already on bond so the prosecution is not up against the 90 day clock for indictment to avoid a pr bond.
Hear me out here. Self defense is not really at play as a legal defense as much as it will be a jury play. Voir dire.

Now, that having been said, do I think Anthony has that caliber of defense attorneys? Don't know.

But for prosecutors stick to what you have nailed down. Not a jury expert by far but my belief is the simpler a prosecutor makes it for the jury to understand and follow, the better for your case.

It is all about the jury.
Jury selection is paramount in this case.

But how do they have manslaughter "nailed down" but not murder. How did he recklessly kill Metcalf? He did it intentionally and we know that because he asked about self defense. I'm sure there is an interview with the defendant where he says he was afraid and that is why he stabbed Metcalf. That is not reckless conduct.

His self defense claim will fail because his use of deadly force was not a proportion response.

This is murder. He will be charged with murder. I cannot even conceive of a reason why he would not charge murder. I was a Texas state felony prosecutor for years and am now a defense attorney.
I think everyone knows the answer to that but no one is really allowed say it out loud
I represent black clients for murder on the regular. They have zero issue charging them.

Hell, they should get me and my guys in as special prosecutors. We are all former felony state prosecutors. For $1.5 million, we will shut down the office for a few months and get this fool 30+ years on murder.

It will be an all white male (no white females) and hispanic petit jury.

This is an easy case for the state.
Curious if any of the cases you were involved in, either as prosecutor or defence, had this notoriety?
No specifics needed, just a yes or no.
The notoriety may affect the proceedings and court system as the threat of riots may increase.
National? No. Regional? Yes.
Thanks for the response.

It has to belong to Karmelo, not belong to his parents.

The parents don't have liability.


It's not clear who the money belongs to in the givesendgo, but I'd be surprised if it's not insulated from belonging to Karmelo
AggieKatie2

There is precedent for liability if parents bought him the knife and knew he was a threat to others.

You have added some huge facts that don't currently exist at the moment.

I didn't introduce any facts.

I was simply addressing your blanket statement that the parents "aren't liable"

We don't know all the details so it remains to be seen whether they could be in the end or not.
BMX Bandit
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Based on the facts as currently known, the parents aren't liable.

Sure, it's possible that changes. But far from likely.

I have no idea what the family's net worth was before the murder, but it's not a super high net worth neighborhood. I'd characterize it as upper middle class. High enough that this still shouldn't be socioeconomic, but highly doubtful on the "rich" claim.

The point being they're not poor and living in poverty, as an excuse. At least middle class. So there goes part of their narrative "not having advantages"
annie88
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Yes because this is so believable. My heavens they are getting desperate. Gotta get that false narrative out there. This is like conspiring for dummies.

Likely completely fake (video not from incident for sure, as that's not Frisco)

So don't assume this story is accurate either.

Karmelo murdered Austin.

Just wanted to keep it simple for anyone getting distracted.

True, you never know but honestly, it wouldn't surprise me.

They're already pushing the race baiting out there so why not push the stupid *****

Honestly, I have no idea where the judge lives.

I'm an appraiser in the Metroplex. I've done Hundreds of houses in Frisco. I've never seen a single house like this in Frisco. This video may be fake but I can tell you with 100% certainty this isnt Frisco and 99% sure this isnt Texas

Anthony supporters are trying to creat a false image of anyone who believes he's a cold-blooded murderer as racist and unreasonable. Of course they want a change of venue.

Agree. Those houses and the trees have a midwestern vibe to them IMO
