Deranged Karmelo Anthony Supporter Loses Her Job

A Texas parole supervisor has reportedly lost her job after posting online in support of convicted killer Karmelo Anthony and dismissing the grief of Austin Metcalf’s family.

Anthony was found guilty of murder and sentenced to 35 years in prison on Tuesday, June 9, after he stabbed and killed 17-year-old Metcalf during a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas, last year.

Despite the conviction, Anthony’s supporters have continued to insist he acted in self-defense when he stabbed the unarmed teenager.

One of those supporters was Donna Robinson, a parole supervisor with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, according to The Dallas Morning News.

The outlet reported that Robinson made a Facebook comment about Anthony’s sentence that ended up costing her job.

Addressing comments about the sentencing, she wrote “that Anthony would be protected in prison, adding she didn’t care about the victim’s family’s loss,” according to the outlet.

The remark sparked outrage as Metcalf’s family continues to mourn the teenager’s death and push back against claims that he was responsible for the confrontation that ended his life.

Anthony’s case has drawn national attention, not only because of the brutal stabbing at a school sporting event, but also because of the activists, professors and online commentators who have rushed to defend him after his conviction.

Fox News Digital also reported that Howard University professor Stacey Patton wrote an opinion piece on her Substack titled, “Dear Jeff Metcalf: Your Son Is Dead Because You Failed to Teach Him That Black Boys Have Boundaries.”

The piece essentially blamed Metcalf for the killing, according to the report, despite a jury finding Anthony guilty of murder.

Another supporter, W. Burlette Carter, a professor emerita of law at George Washington University, publicly questioned the trial after the verdict.

She argued Anthony should receive a new trial because no black jurors sat on the panel.

“Karmelo Anthony was entitled to a jury of his peers. He did not get that. On that ground alone, he is entitled to a new trial. Minorities are not interchangeable. The prosecutor’s reported proffered reasons for striking all black jurors —that they were teachers—appears to be pretext. Anthony needs a new lawyer on appeal and in a new trial.”

But Anthony’s jury was made up of fellow U.S. citizens, which satisfies the constitutional meaning of a jury of one’s peers.

In criminal prosecutions, the Constitution guarantees the accused “the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed.”

Anthony is now in custody after jurors rejected his self-defense claim and handed down a 35-year sentence.

The reaction from some of his supporters has only deepened the anger surrounding the case, with critics arguing that activists and academics are trying to rewrite the facts after a jury already weighed the evidence.

Fox News Digital has reached out to Howard University, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Burlette Carter for comment.
