Karmelo Anthony’s family hero, the press event last day in Dallas, a few days after the 17 -year -old was allowed to leave prison in the house trial.
But the procedure stopped when Austin’s father, Jeff Metcalf, appeared out of nowhere, just to be escorted by a package of Dallas police. He thought he could have handled his leg differently.
“They should have lifted [to the front] And he said: ‘We feel it very much. Our condolences. “The only thing that I would have said:” It’s okay, can we pray together and show the world that we are united, “he touched on Saturday?

“I receive a text message. My phone is exploding. It’s the f -ing da. He said:” Jeff, go! Leave! Leave! “Metcalf recalled.” My ex -wife sends me text messages: “Go, go, go!” They will call the police if I don’t get the F – out of there. ”
The Dominique Alexander activist of the next -generation action network called Metcalf’s visit “a lack of respect for his son’s dignity.”
Metcalf did not care about Alexander’s comments.
“After leaving, that Dominique … only gaslights to s, outside of me. He says that I am irracortic, I am so disrespectful that I am respect for the dignity of my son when he appears … And I am whatever, whatever, friend to kill.”
“This is my point: we are both victims. My son is dead. They will be in prison. But it is the end of the day, [Karmelo] He must be responsible for his actions, “he said.
