An alleged teen killer accused of stabbing a sporting rival in cold blood has been thrown another bone after being granted bail.
Karmelo Anthony has now been told he can graduate from high school, Daily Mail can reveal.
Frisco Independent School District’s about-face, deciding Anthony, 17, can graduate from Centennial High School despite his first-degree murder charge, as confirmed by his adviser and spokesman Dominque Alexander to DailyMail.com.
The reversal is likely to be controversial. The murder case has become a flashpoint about race and privilege, garnering national attention.
Anthony is accused of stabbing Austin Metcalf, 17, in the chest after the Memorial High School student confronted Anthony about sitting under the Memorial team tent at a track meet in Frisco, Texas on April 2.
Metcalf bled out in his twin brother’s arms.
Meanwhile, Anthony, who initially fled the track meet after the stabbing, later told arresting officers “I did it,” when he was taken into custody.
Now, he is claiming self defense.

Right, he’s graduating with an E average
Walk by himself in an empty stadium or empty football field. No one else should be there. Better yet, no grad for him. Bathroom if it needs to be done.
1 individual should not spoil the graduation of others. Teachers and leaders need to stop this silly mindset.
Just mail his diploma. He can hang it on the wall of his prison cell.
This S.O.B. should not have been released on bail.
He needed to be held in jail until his trial.
He and or his family members should not have been allowed to open a ” go fund me ” account.
You guys are always posting FAFO, or “Play stupid games, get stupid prizes,” but that’s exactly what happened to Metcalf. He was a known bully that would purposefully antagonize and push people around. Anthony is probably going to argue self defense.
the devil has claimed our country. evil is everywhere. don’t accept this, keep fighting against it. Christians are the light in the world.
