Karmelo Anthony’s murder trial happened in Texas but the case has
triggered strong reactions from observers around the
country.

The 19-year-old’s legal team argued self-defense but witnesses
told the jury that Anthony was never in danger. He was simply
being asked to leave a private area belonging to a rival high
school’s track squad.

Daily Mail’s Texas Bureau Chief MaryAnn Martinez joins us this
week to break down the evidence and dispel misinformation that
has been amplified on social media. Unsubstantiated theories have
circulated since April 2025, when 17-year-old Austin Metcalf was
killed. He died in the arms of his twin brother.

Anthony was found guilty of murder at his trial last week and was
sentenced to 35 years in prison. The verdict has renewed
accusations of racism from his supporters even as the jury
rejected his justification defense.

Tune into Martinez’s conversation with Kayla Brantley to learn
what the evidence at trial revealed and what claims are not
supported by fact.
