Amala Ekpunobi
The Parents Of Austin Metcalf & Karmelo Anthony Speak Out

He attempted to take the high ground, I think, in many instances in this.

The Parents Of Austin Metcalf & Karmelo Anthony Speak Out

I think there's something to be said for taking the high ground and even showing up to the sentencing and the court proceedings and going through this as a parent who doesn't have your kid anymore and just has to witness the kid who took your son's life going through this entire process.
