Opening statements ON KIMSTER'S POST 1868 ABOVE ^^^^^
Austin Metcalf’s final words as he lay dying were revealed Thursday in the highly charged murder case against Texas teen Karmelo Anthony — who brazenly admitted to the fatal stabbing as he was handcuffed, prosecutors said.
“I’ve been stabbed,” Metcalf said after seeing he was wounded, prosecutor Bill Wirskye told jurors during opening statements in the Frisco case.
The 17-year-old victim then stumbled down a few rows of bleacher seating as his twin brother, Hunter Metcalf, went to his side — with the wounded sibling bleeding to death in Hunter’s arms, according to the Daily Mail.
And when a police officer arresting Anthony shortly after called him an “alleged suspect,” the accused killer admitted: “I’m not alleged, I did it.
Anthony took a folding knife out of a bag and thrust it into the chest of Austin, who at first “didn’t even know he was stabbed,” Wirskye claimed. When Hunter got to his brother, he lifted his shirt and the twins “see a gaping hole in his chest,” the prosecutor told the jurors.
Meanwhile, Anthony ditched the knife and tried to run, but didn’t even make it out of the stadium before coaches stopped him. The alleged assailant told the coaches that Austin started the altercation. The 19-year-old murder suspect — who has been out on bail since the April 2, 2025, incident — attended the Collin County trial in McKinney wearing a gray suit over a purple shirt and sporting a freshly shaved face and a short, cropped coif. After openings wrapped up, the jury was shown surveillance footage of the slaying and the failed attempts to keep Austin alive.
Wirskye claimed Austin — a student at Frisco Memorial High School — who was stepping up to help his coach lead the track and field meet that day, asked Anthony, of Frisco Centennial High School, to leave his team’s tent at the Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco, Texas.
“As if it justifies the murder he just committed,” Wirskye alleged. Anthony attempted to slip out of the stadium unnoticed by grouping himself with other students who were running out in a panic, the prosecutor claimed. “If you’re scared and running away in self-defense, why toss the knife?” the prosecutor posed to the jury.
Earlier, Wirskye said the case “has nothing to do with race” and that it was about Anthony’s “surprise attack” on Austin. “That’s why we are here, no other reason,” the prosecutor said before adding it was a “senseless” crime.
Mike Howard, Anthony’s defense attorney, who referred to his client as “Melo,” in his own opening statements told jurors that a hulking Austin initiated the confrontation after a much smaller Anthony went under Austin’s team tent to get out of the rain.
“What’s important to know is Melo is 5 foot 8 and 140 pounds. Hunter and Austin Metcalf are 6 foot 1 about 80 pounds heavier than Melo,” Howard claimed.
Howard said his client — then 17 — “remained seated, even when Austin and Hunter stood up.” “It is uncontroverted that Austin makes the first physical contact. Austin grabs, punches, pushes. In that split second, Melo has a decision to make — how and when to act,” the defense attorney said. “Melo defended himself with that knife,” Howard said. “He ran, he didn’t stab again, he dropped the knife, he didn’t stab anyone else.”
The first witness to take the stand was a forensic video analyst, Mark Porter, who was asked questions about the surveillance footage of the incident as the jury was shown clips.

Karmelo Anthony trial

Karmelo Anthony was indicted on first-degree murder in the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a track meet in Frisco, Texas, in April 2025.
Judge John Roach has imposed a gag order in the case, restricting what those involved can say, due to the attention the case has garnered.
"Due to the significant public and media interest in this case, the Court finds that specific procedures are necessary to ensure the Defendant's right to a fair and impartial trial, the orderly administration of justice, the safety and security of all participants, and reasonable public access consistent with constitutional requirements," he wrote in an order on the trial proceedings.
The deadly stabbing occurred at a Frisco Independent School District stadium on April 2, 2025, during a track and field championship involving multiple schools in the district.
Police said Austin Metcalf, an 11th grader at Frisco Memorial High School, was stabbed during an altercation under his school's tent in the stadium bleachers. Anthony, a then-17-year-old student at Frisco Centennial High School, was taken into custody.
Responding officers said they spoke to multiple witnesses, including one who reported the altercation began after Metcalf told Anthony to move out from under their team's tent, according to the arrest report.
The witness reported that Anthony allegedly reached inside his bag and said, "Touch me and see what happens," according to the arrest report.
Metcalf grabbed Anthony to move him, according to a witness in the arrest report, and Anthony allegedly pulled out what the witness described as a black knife and "stabbed Austin once in the chest and then ran away," the arrest report stated.
