Breaking News HS track athlete stabbed and killed at track meet

[RandomOne]

This is an unrelated incident.

I was worried it was the stabbing video

 

[5th Letter]

That was self defense….

This is an unrelated incident.

I'm saying you can tell from the clip the kind of atmosphere and energy he was around on a daily basis.

The dead kid coulda also died by getting slammed on his head. The point is, he should mind his business and leave people alone and this situation coulda been avoided.

That’s fair he could’ve also slipped on a banana peel, fell on his face and landed on ice pick. Or tripped on a tree branch slipped, lost his balance, found himself on a freeway and got hit by a motor vehicle.

 

[Ghostdenidagod]

Sooo what happened because everything sounds like speculation

 

[Disanthrope]

He going away for a long time

Disappointed in you bruh

You sound like a abw nigga

 

[Chi-Town B]

If witnesses said the white boy was the aggressor then let the young brotha go

H.S. Track Meet Murder Suspect Karmelo Anthony Gets Thousands Of Donations

Thousands of dollars have been raised for Karmelo Anthony -- the 17-year-old accused of stabbing and killing a fellow teenager at a track meet last week -- as his family continues to defend him.

A GiveSendGo set up by the boy's close relatives has garnered, as of Monday morning, $155,848 ... after Karmelo's father, Andrew, stated last week Karmelo was "not the aggressor" in the April 2 tragedy that resulted in the death of Austin Metcalf.


Metcalf's twin brother alleged Karmelo got "aggressive and" talked "reckless" before grabbing a knife. Andrew, however, told the New York Post his son "was not the one who started it."

"Everyone has already made their assumptions about my son," Andrew said, "but he’s not what they’re making him out to be."

"He works two jobs. He’s an A student, has a 3.7 GPA."

That was self defense….

The father "forgave" because the twin who ain't dead told him the truth and they're trying to get ahead of the bully narrative

Disappointed in you bruh

You sound like a abw nigga

I don’t run the courts

 

[Allah_U_Akbar]

Moral of the story:


Mind your damn business!

 

[LurkerSix]

So....no real new info except speculation fueled by personal bias?

 

[Disanthrope]

I don’t run the courts

 

[Rubato]

This aligns with what was reported before. What detail do you feel should change my opinion?

The fact that he was touched first in a stand your ground state

If you base your opinion off white supremacy I get it but that shouldn't be the knee-jerk reaction imo

I addressed this already based on Texas law

That’s not how it works in TX

Has to be a proportionate response to the threat

Him touching him isn’t a legal free pass to pull out a flame thrower for example

 

[Black_Samson]

Rubato are you forgetting the threat of being jumped?

What is proportionate at that point?

Haven’t seen anything suggesting he feared being jumped but if I do I’ll respond to it. I’d think he would have mentioned that when questioned.

To me this seems like he was rejecting the idea of forced relocation, not physical injury.

If he can convince a jury otherwise then more power to him, but yall seem to be setting yourselves up to be let down.
