The case of Karmelo Anthony, who stands accused of the murder of Austin Metcalf and whose family has raised a ton of money through a GiveSendGo fundraiser–and has moved into a big new house in a gated community–drags on. On Wednesday, I noted some stark differences between the accused in this case, who is pleading self-defense, and another case that was self-defense, and yet proceeded very differently:
Now, the hustle has begun in the tale of Karmelo Anthony and Austin Metcalf. One Dominique Alexander has attached himself to the family of Anthony as an “advocate,” and he’s a real piece of work. A Texas Republican state legislator and activist, Sarah Fields, has some background.
The X post continues:
He called me out by name during his press conference. He held up my posts, including Karmelo’s arrest report, which I obtained through a FOIA, and a post in which I was threatened (a strange choice to highlight), among others. He claimed my intent was to interfere with Karmelo’s family receiving assistance.
This man has placed a target on me and my family for reporting the truth and investigating him and his organization. This is who he is, and I will not be intimidated. I am no stranger to threats; I have received them nearly every hour for the last four days. It will likely get worse.Please pray for my family.
