Karmelo Anthony launches APPEAL against 35 year prison sentence for murdering Austin Metcalf, 17
Karmelo Anthony has launched an appeal fighting his 35 year prison sentence for murdering Austin Metcalf, according to newly filed court records.
Anthony, 19, filed a notice of appeal on Wednesday – less than 24 hours after he learned his fate for fatally stabbing Metcalf in the heart during a track meet in April 2025, legal documents obtained by TMZ detailed.
The convicted murderer’s lawyer, Mike Howard, told the outlet that his legal team told the court that they would be appealing right after the trial concluded.
‘We believe there are several important issues for the appellate courts to consider. An appeal is the next part of the legal process and a right afforded every American,’ Howard said.
