A 16-year-old track athlete was killed during a championship meet Wednesday morning in Texas by a member of another team, officials said.

Frisco Police confirmed the student-athlete died "despite lifesaving measures." The suspect, 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony, has been charged with first-degree murder.

A student from Frisco Memorial was the victim, according to local reports. Frisco Memorial Principal Brook Fesco wrote in an email obtained by Fox News Digital that Austin Metcalf, a junior at the school, had died Wednesday.

The incident occurred at about 10 a.m. at Kuykendall Stadium at the University Interscholasic League's District 11-5A championship meet. Anthony attends Frisco Centennial, roughly 7 miles away from Frisco Memorial.

According to the Frisco Independent School District, the meet was suspended shortly after the incident. The ISD added that the stadium "was immediately secured, and students were released and sent back to their home campus on FISD buses with expediency."

In her email, Fesco said the school "will acknowledge Austin’s death during 2nd period and will offer support throughout the day," adding counselors would be available.

"As a parent, your guidance and support will be important in helping your child process grief. Talking about this together, face-to-face, will give you a chance to discuss how your family understands and copes with loss. You may also want to discuss with your child how to be a supportive friend to classmates," Fesco wrote. "This loss might remind your student of past losses as well. The most important thing you can do is provide your child a chance to be heard and to express their feelings."

"The Frisco Police Department grieves with all those affected by this devastating loss and extends its deepest condolences to the victim’s family, students, and staff who are experiencing unimaginable pain," the department said in a statement. "The department is collaborating with the Frisco Independent School District and will continue to provide any support they need during this incredibly difficult time."

Metcalf, who also played football at the school, participated in both the boys shot put and discus events earlier in the day, with threw distances of 39 feet, 9¾ inches and 86 feet, 4 inches, respectively.

Anthony ran the boys' 100-meter dash in 12.38 seconds and was scheduled to compete in the long jump.

Eight schools competed at the meet, according to MileSplit.

What?

It's pretty clear English. Read it as many times as you need.

BSU was formed specifically to tackle cases of serial killing with a sexual basis (‘lust murder’) so they assumed all serial killings were thusly motivated.

People looking for a pattern of killings, look for the obvious patterns.

They categorically and specifically split ‘serial killer’ off from ‘multiple murderer’ when the BSU started categorising killers and it’s only in the last ~15 years they have re-merged them. The difference? The sexual motivation.
O my brother in Christ, I own and have read the literal BSU textbook on the topic circa 1998. Can you say the same?

So then they realized that it's not a significant difference in the long run. Hey look at that I'm right.

Glad you need to read a book to figure out the obvious.

 

[AnotherPleb]

Genuinely this case shouldn't be so developed as it's been. He should have gone to jail case closed. But you got both families grieving and the white dad trying some kumbaya shit up in here.

There's still some remnants of the CRS or people trained by them at work. Nothing Trump has done has happened smoothly and this case is evidence of the chickenshit bureaucrats digging their heels in.

I don't think "stand your ground" would ever apply in a school situation.

I have only ever gone to Califag schools, but where I came up, getting into a fight, even as the defending party, is an automatic suspension.

You come up and sucker punch me, you get suspended.

If I respond by kneeing you in the nuts, we both get suspended.

Furthermore, bringing any kind of weapon to school is also an automatic suspension, if not a full expulsion and arrest.

You come up and sucker punch me, you get suspended.

If I respond by flashing a knife, I will probably get expelled and possibly get arrested. If I respond by stabbing your ass, I am definitely getting expelled and almost certainly getting arrested.

I am not sure how much school rules and school zone code are legally binding, but at least here, if the Eye of Sauron came upon a student carrying a knife, they'd be screwn.

It's not exactly the same, but if you break into my house and I absolutely annihilate you with a surface-to-air missile that I bought with Dogecoin off the dark web, I might be in the right to defend myself, but there's a whole other code governing what constitutes a reasonable cause for the deployment of proportional violence that's not going to come down in my favor.

If Karmelo was suspended and no longer allowed to participate in track, he was trespassing and SYG goes out the window.

I thought he ran that day?

The defense wasn't even allowed to bring up that Trayvon had been found at school with jewelry and "burglary tools" in his backpack,

Did anybody here archive his Twitter before it was taken down? I can only find recaps from MSM and it's obvious they're whitewashing it as normal teen stuff with how obsessed he was with finding a girl.

likely not deserving of its own thread but there was another stabbing in Virginia (West Potomac High School, majority Hispanic school) today, apparently this kid did survive despite bleeding all over the place. this involves two beaners though so i doubt people will care that much.

Spoiler: perpetrator + aftermath

Damn, that's wild. He was handling them both and the dork he had on the floor got him a bunch. You can get stabbed a few times without realizing they aren't punches. The other one is the white kid and Mexican where the Mexican died. Seems like it'll be self-defense, though.

In other news, I am finding it harder and harder to hold back when I deal with the moronic Karmelo defenders. They are indeed saying, "we actually prove it was a cleat sharpener! dis mean it was legal and not a weapon!" Christ. It seems like the algos are pushing for a race war, though. This case was framed with just his pic and hers and "the brutal murder of" and makes it sound premeditated and personal. The reality is kind of odd and not clear-cut at all.

He's a nigger. They're always running from something.

Rittenhouse shot "3 people in the back"

"3 people"

That's not even a good point anyway. Didn't the FBI have that fucking drone footage that completely exonerated Kyle and corroborated his events, but they didn't even mention having it until like the judge was about to bang his gavel or something?

Yeah. I also have Rosenbaum’s autopsy photos filed away somewhere clearly showing a small-calibre bullet hole in his back, supporting claims that someone (the roofer guy) was shooting at Rittenhouse while Rosenbaum was charging at him.
I’ve just done some searches on Google and Yandex for copies of the photos and the name of the roofer and got pages of inaccurate results. Incredibly frustrating that shit that was on the public record only a couple of years ago is now ‘unfortunately’ impossible to easily find.

This is to teach children that all justice must come from the State and that taking things into your own hands and trying to arbitrate right and wrong for yourself is bad and will be punished. Children learn very quickly what gets them punished and what does not. Self-defence gets punished.

It seems like the algos are pushing for a race war, though.

Who knows? It's a Trump term and BLM were there to undermine his first term then suddenly reigned in when the Democrats were in the White House. The timing of that was done for the run-up to the election. This is early in his term. But he's certainly wrecking a lot of powerful people's plans and they don't have that many cards to play. And the Jussie Smollet hoax was the previous attempt to start a race war and that was in 2019 but that failed. Anyway, talk of timing is an unknown, point is I wouldn't be shocked attempts to push more racial division using whatever they have at hand. And if you think about it, a case where one party really is obviously in the wrong is better because if it was a misjustice, most people would support him regardless of skin colour whereas sadly in this case, people seem to be supporting him because of it. Which pushes them to double-down and other people to denounce it. You get more division from defending someone who did wrong than condemning someone who did right.

Regardless of all the reasoning, it's a bad idea anyway even aside from the human cost. There's a good chance it will just harden the MAGA base. Though what they'll be worried about is the way Black people, esp. men, have started to support Trump in increasing numbers. Some riots and identity politics they think will sort it out. The Democrats depend on Black people being "theirs". If Black people start to disagree about that then the Democrats are turbo-fucked. Pardon my French.

Rittenhouse shot "3 people in the back"

Think you were critiquing the holding up two fingers, so I'll just tack on, it wasn't in the back, either. What a liar!

Now, Texas is stand your ground, so he has no obligation to retreat. And Metcalf did use force upon Anthony, so there was an imminent threat. If Anthony has just punched Metcalf in response, he'd be in a much better position. But like a low IQ nigger he overreacted and used the knife.

Stand Your Ground was really intended for people encountering thieves, burglars, and invaders into either their home, vehicle, or place of business (why it is often referred to as 'Castle doctrine'). Exercising it requires that you have a legal right to be where you are, which, as someone brought up, would be interesting if Antony had indeed been suspended. In Texas trespassing on the grounds of a school is a class C misdemeanor.

That's Castle doctrine fucked on two grounds, 1) You have to have the right to be where you are, and 2) You have to not be committing a crime at the time (minus minor traffic offenses), which Antony would have been if he was not allowed to be at the school track meet and was trespassing (the potential stealing could also come under this point, although it would be hard to prove unless there were actual stolen goods in his backpack).

Also, Under Stand Your Ground in Texas, deadly force is only justifiable under the threat of deadly force, not just ANY threat to the person. So even if Metcalf had punched Antony, which I do not think he did, he had to present an actual threat to Antony's life to justify stabbing him to death. Was Metcalf going to kill Antony at a track meet with no weapon and a dozen witnesses? Of course not, he's a Christian white boy, not an unhinged nigger. Texas Penal Code 9.32 that deals with SYG in regard to deadly force:



I'm not sure that Castle doctrine would apply anyway (unless you could make a realllllly stretched argument about Antony being in his 'workplace' if he was part of the track team that was at the other school that day) but even if it did, Antony very clearly wasn't at risk of his life being kicked out of another team's tent.

Close. It was an attempt to get Kamala’s stalled anti-lynching bill to pass in order to establish her bona fides as a legislative ’mover and shaker’ as part of her Obama-sponsored White House run. Not for nothing did she, Michelle Obama and Kim Foxx have meetings about squashing Smollett’s charges once the lie was exposed.

How does that Grus plan meme go? The fbi used super secret 4k night vision drones the night of the riots and it wouldn't have been revealed they use them if it wasn't evidence in a trial?

Meaning in no way to dispute your general point or informative post, I have a particular hatred for how judges and lawyers who have never been in a fight in their life like to trivialise violence based on their 80's movies addled brains. You can kill a person with a punch, you can permanently disable them, you can knock them down hard onto a kerb or counter and that can kill them. The number of times I've seen or read someone try to diminish someone's right to defend himself or the seriousness of someone's attack upon another because "it's just a punch" or "he wasn't armed with a weapon" is ludicrous. Case in point the prosecutor tried to do it in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial that we were talking about just earlier. Saying that Rittenhouse was armed with a rifle and the person attacking him just had a skateboard, as if they were in some target shooting competition and Rittenhouse was cheating. I've seen people (Antifa) actually advise bringing a skateboard because it can be used as a weapon but is plausible to have on you.

Again, not to dispute with you. Just the inability of judges to actually understand physical force has shocked me on occasion and in another situation, I could well see myself arguing that someone was entitled to use deadly force in defence against someone who was unarmed. Ditto situations where the defender strikes first which is another thing judges seem to expect you to do - stand there and be punched before you begin to fight back, like you're little kids or something.

EDIT:

Huh, I'd forgotten about that. Yes, you're right. Though it could have easily started a race war too. People would have died if he'd pulled that off.

If Black people start to disagree about that then the Democrats are turbo-fucked.

They're turbo-fucked anyways. They only have 25% support ratings and people are moving away from Blue strongholds in record numbers, which means the DNC will lose seats in the next census. That's why they were pulling their open borders scheme. It wasn't just to force amnesty and citizenship for votes, but because even illegals are counted as part of the population and goes towards calculating how many seats a state gets. Every "Blue Wall" swing state went to Trump in the last election AND he won the popular vote along with the EC. The DNC would have to either fully reverse course away from being the party of Wokeness, illegal immigrants, criminals, trannies, and Socialism towards being a moderate party for the working class to have a hope of fixing things, or they would have to pull very overt and blatantly criminal acts to regain power. They haven't been this fucked in generations, probably because they've never worked this hard to go against the American people before. And they keep doubling down.

Close, IIRC the issue was that the prosecution off-hand revealed they had a higher quality version of the drone footage which they never told the defense about, which should have been trial endingly prejudicial but ultimately got handwaved. This did happen very close to the end of the trial.

Stand Your Ground was really intended for people encountering thieves, burglars, and invaders into either their home, vehicle, or place of business (why it is often referred to as 'Castle doctrine').

Castle doctrine is distinct from Stand Your Ground specifically because it's extended outside of your home.

All states have castle doctrine, whether by statute or precedent, but not all states have Stand Your Ground.

 

[LaxerBRO]

I have only ever gone to Califag schools, but where I came up, getting into a fight, even as the defending party, is an automatic suspension.

I always wondered if this applied to the administration. If the principal was sexually assaulted in the parking lot and needs to defend herself, does she get suspended a month without pay?

It's obviously a rhetorical question but it does highlight somethings.

This guy is a room temperature IQ retard. It's painful listening to him just try and parrot what he thinks smarter people sound like hoping he sounds intelligent.

I'd be shocked if he was literate.
