Numerous racial agitators said online this week that the black suspect in the murder of Austin Metcalf, who was white, was justified, arguing largely on racial grounds.
Metcalf, 17, was stabbed to death on Wednesday at a high school track meet after the victim reportedly told Karmelo Anthony, 17, that he was sitting in the wrong seat. Anthony has been charged with murder and, according to an arrest warrant, told police of the fatal stabbing, “I did it.”
Racial activist Tariq Nasheed said without evidence that Metcalf is “a suspected white supremacist,” and Anthony “defended himself” after he was asked to “give up his seat,” referencing the Jim Crow era.
“A suspected white supremacist named Austin Metcalf (pictured with his twin) allegedly demanded honor student Karmelo Anthony give up his seat—like it was the Jim Crow era,” Nasheed posted. “Karmelo defended himself from the alleged threat. The Daniel Penny case set this precedent.”
