A Texas murder trial for 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony spiraled into chaos with death threats and witness intimidation, forcing prosecutors and defense attorneys into secret, controversial agreements to keep sensitive evidence out of court—fearing it could inflame racial tensions and compromise the jury.

The judge now must decide if Anthony deserves a new trial amid a high-stakes clash between justice and safety.
