Convicted killer and homophobe Karmelo Anthony apparently spent months assembling what can only be described as a digital scrapbook of crappy decisions, posing with guns, ranting about other black people, and accusing gay people of “f—king everything up” before fatally stabbing Austin Metcalf at a Texas high school track meet.
A newly uncovered 75-page document dump reportedly reveals a disturbing collection of texts between Anthony and his then-girlfriend, offering a glimpse into a teenager whose apparent solution to increasingly serious problems was to create even more serious problems because he's not so bright.
The Daily Mail first reported images of Anthony flashing a handgun in a November 2024 video, just months before he fatally stabbed Metcalf in the heart at a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas, in April 2025.
Another image from May 2024 shows Anthony holding an AK-47-style rifle alongside three other teenagers. A third video reportedly shows Anthony aiming a gun at an unknown residence before running away on Jan. 4, 2025.
Apparently, this was not exactly the sort of wholesome extracurricular activity schools like to highlight in their yearbooks.
And because one apparently needs more evidence that Anthony had a serious problem with judgment, the newly uncovered texts reportedly show him directing profanity-laced hatred toward members of his own community.
A week before the killing, Anthony reportedly sent several messages to his girlfriend, Valeria Perez, expressing his deep disdain for other black people.
“I f—king despise Black b*tches,” he said, according to a screenshot.
“F—king n—ers,” he wrote, according to the documents. “They need to go die.”
Anthony apparently wasn't finished offending people. In a June 2021 text to a friend, he reportedly turned his attention toward gay people.
“These f—king gay people are f—king everything up,” he wrote.
He also reportedly said he hated then-President Joe Biden because he’s “Gay ASB [as balls],” according to the New York Post.
It turns out the internet's permanent memory is not always your friend.
The dossier also contains allegations of criminal behavior unrelated to the stabbing. In an October 2024 text, Anthony reportedly told his girlfriend he “might gt [go to] jail” after claiming he had broken into a neighbor’s home and stolen a watch.
He also allegedly bragged about bringing a gun and knife to school.
Because apparently the concept of leaving the weapons at home was not sufficiently exciting.
The evidence never made it to trial and was not presented to the jury, despite offering prosecutors additional allegations about Anthony's behavior before the killing.
In August, a Texas judge rejected Anthony’s long-shot request for a new murder trial, dealing another setback to his appellate team, which had alleged several errors during the proceedings. The Collin County District Attorney’s Office has maintained that prosecutors acted ethically throughout the trial, The Daily Wire previously reported.
Evidence presented at trial showed that Anthony refused to leave another team's tented area and, when confronted by the unarmed Metcalf, stabbed him directly in the heart.
A Texas jury rejected Anthony’s self-defense claim and sentenced him to 35 years in prison.
The case quickly became a national controversy, fueled in part by the narrative promoted by Anthony's family and what critics described as a striking lack of interest from legacy media outlets that have historically devoted enormous attention to incidents involving race.
The trial began June 1 with jury selection and concluded just nine days later.
Anthony broke down in tears and visibly shook as the verdict was read. He became emotional again when the judge announced his 35-year sentence.
When Metcalf’s family delivered victim impact statements, Anthony reportedly kept his head down and refused to look them in the eyes, even after being asked to do so.
Jeff Metcalf, Austin's father, wasn't interested in excuses.
“You can’t even look me in the eyes right now, but you can stab my f*cking son,” he said.
