Karmelo Anthony, 19, is seeking a new trial and the recusal of the state judge after being sentenced to 35 years in prison for the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a 2025 track meet. His new defense team filed motions on Tuesday arguing that the conviction should be overturned. The attorneys claim that prosecutors coerced Anthony into waiving his right to testify, necessitating a do-over trial with a different presiding judge.
