{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"Death at a Track Meet: TX v Karmelo Anthony","description":"A confrontation at a high school track meet. A knife pulled in seconds. One teenager dead, another claiming he acted in self-defense.\n\nOn April 2, 2025, 17-year-old Austin Metcalf was fatally stabbed during a dispute at a track meet in Frisco, Texas. Witnesses described a brief confrontation between Metcalf and fellow student Karmelo Anthony before the encounter turned deadly.\n\nWhat followed was a case that quickly became one of the most debated stories in the country. Supporters argued Anthony acted in self-defense after being confronted and feared for his safety. Others pointed to witness testimony and the circumstances surrounding the stabbing, arguing the evidence told a very different story.\n\nIn this episode of 13th Juror, we examine the events leading up to the fatal encounter, the investigation, the evidence presented at trial, the self-defense claim, and the arguments made by both sides. We also explore the public reaction, the misinformation that spread online, and the jury's decision that ultimately determined Anthony's fate.\n\nHow do jurors evaluate a self-defense claim? And when does a perceived threat justify the use of deadly force?\n\nAs always, we leave that decision where it belongs—with the jury.\n\n🎧 Follow 13th Juror Podcast on your favorite podcast platform so you never miss an episode.\n⭐ If you enjoy the show, please leave a rating and review.\n📱 Follow Brandi Churchwell and 13th Juror Podcast on social media for case updates, behind-the-scenes content, and upcoming episode announcements.","author_name":"13th Juror Podcast","author_url":"https://audioboom.com/channels/5129018-13th-juror-podcast","provider_name":"Audioboom","provider_url":"https://audioboom.com","width":480,"height":95,"thumbnail_url":"https://audioboom.com/i/43712544/600x600/c","thumbnail_width":600,"thumbnail_height":600,"html":"<iframe width=\"100%\" height=\"95\" src=\"https://embeds.audioboom.com/posts/8920399/embed?v=202301\" style=\"background-color: transparent; display: block; padding: 0; width: 100%\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"allowtransparency\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"Audioboom player\" allow=\"autoplay\" sandbox=\"allow-downloads allow-forms allow-popups allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-storage-access-by-user-activation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation\"></iframe>"}
