Karmelo Anthony — the 17-year-old accused of killing a fellow teen at a track meet earlier this year — will not face the death penalty. This decision has sparked mixed reactions, especially from the alleged victim’s father.

Anthony was formally indicted on one count of first-degree murder on Tuesday for his alleged involvement in a stabbing incident at a high school track meet. Despite the severity of the charge, the death penalty has been ruled out for Anthony, primarily due to his age.

Authorities have confirmed that Anthony, being 17 years old, is ineligible for the death penalty. Instead, he could face life imprisonment if found guilty.

In response to this development, Jeff Metcalf, the father of the deceased victim Austin Metcalf, expressed his thoughts. He indicated that he would have supported the death penalty if Anthony had been 18 at the time of the incident.

However, Jeff refrained from commenting on whether he would advocate for it regardless of Anthony’s age. He emphasized that nothing can undo the loss of his son, stating, “Doesn’t matter what I think. Nothing will bring my son back.”

He acknowledged the legal limitations based on Anthony’s age, noting that the circumstances would have been different if the incident had occurred just a few weeks later when Anthony turned 18.

Despite his reservations about the lack of the death penalty option, Jeff expressed satisfaction that the case is progressing through the legal system.

On the other hand, Anthony’s attorney, Mike Howard, defended his client’s actions as self-defense. He expressed confidence that justice will prevail as the case unfolds in court.
