A Texas judge overseeing the high-profile murder case of 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony has been removed, sparking hopes for a new trial as his defense argues judicial bias. Convicted for stabbing teen Austin Metcalf during a track meet, Anthony received a 35-year sentence — but his lawyers claim the judge’s strict courtroom conduct and post-trial interview undermine fairness. With a new judge set to review the motion this Thursday, the case remains emotionally charged amid social media debates over race, despite both sides insisting race played no role. Witnesses dispute the details: did Anthony refuse to leave Metcalf’s tent? Was he the aggressor? The next hearing could reshape the future of this explosive case.
