Karmelo Anthony Stabbing Case

Karmelo Anthony’s murder conviction was justified because he was the aggressor and the evidence points toward guilt rather than an unfair trial. Newly revealed details about his behavior before the killing make his bid for a new trial look weaker, not stronger.

James Talarico was wrong to cast Karmelo Anthony’s conviction as racially unjust; Anthony’s defense and new-trial bid were baseless efforts to dodge accountability for murdering Austin Metcalf.
