A rainy high school track meet in Frisco, Texas ended with 17-year-old Austin Metcalf dead and another 17-year-old, Karmelo Anthony, charged with murder.
In this episode of Hot Justice, we break down the confrontation under the team tent, the stabbing, the self-defense argument, the murder conviction, the rejected sudden-passion claim, the 35-year sentence, and the appeal that may focus on jury selection. This case has sparked intense debate over race, self-defense, teen violence, and what justice should look like when two families are forever changed.
