Chapter 1: What case is being discussed regarding Karmelo Anthony?
The ladies of The View decide to outright lie about the Carmelo Anthony, Austin Metcalf case, and we got to keep them in check. So let's talk about it. Guys, before we get into today's video, please like and subscribe. Today we're talking about the Carmelo Anthony case again. I guess we have to because the ladies of The View
particularly Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin, decide they're just gonna outright lie about the facts of this case. Now, for those of you who are unfamiliar or need a little bit of a recap, Carmelo Anthony was recently convicted of first degree murder in the stabbing death of Austin Metcalf. He took Austin Metcalf's life
after Austin Metcalf at a track meet told him he wasn't supposed to be under a particular tent. That was a fact. Now, as this altercation ensued, Carmelo Anthony told Austin Metcalf to touch him and see what happens. That is the quote. When Austin Metcalf touched him, Carmelo Anthony pulled out a knife and plunged it into his chest. thus the first degree murder charge.
Now, apparently Sonny Hostin and Whoopi Goldberg have a problem with that. And we're gonna watch a clip on The View where they go into the details of this case, except they lie over and over and over again.
This story has been, we've been following this and so now there's new footage that has been released of the moments after high schooler Carmelo Anthony fatally stabbed Austin Metcalf.
Now, interestingly, they just show Carmelo Anthony running. There is other footage of this that shows a little bit more of the moment in which Austin Metcalf is stabbed. I wonder why they don't show that. For some, they're going to point out that it makes it look like he didn't, in fact, act in self-defense.
A Texas track meet in April of 2025. Take a look. He put his hands on me. I told him not to, he put his hands on me.
Okay. You hear Carmelo Anthony say, I'm not alleged, I did it. And then we cascade into some sort of crying fit. Some may say that that's finally the emotions of what he did hitting him and the real act of self-defense finally struck him.

Chapter 2: What are the facts surrounding the murder of Austin Metcalf?
Others might say he might've realized the weight of the situation that he's in and decided now might be a time for crying if there ever was one.
He was sentenced to 35 years in prison, which he's appealing. The case has a lot of people divided. Some people believe that race was a factor in the trial because there were no black jurors. All the three black jurors that were there were educators, and they were released. They were struck. They were struck for that.
Ooh, another lie, but we'll get to that in just a moment.
and some folks think, no, no, he got a fair trial. But is this a jury of his peers?
I don't think so. And, you know, this has been an issue for such a long time in the judicial system where prosecutors use what are called, you know, bats and challenges. And they... Explain what that is. It's a challenge that is used to strike a juror generally a juror of color for a race-neutral reason. Right.
Because you're not supposed to... You're supposed to have a jury of your peers, and you're not supposed to just strike someone because they're black. And in this case, they gave the reasoning that they're educators and this happened... These were high school students, and this happened at a school track meet, so they couldn't be impartial because of that.
I don't think that's an appropriate reason. It might be the best ones, too. Yeah, I don't think it's inappropriate. Okay.
Now, clearly, they're trying to insinuate that the prosecution maybe, like, pulled a quick one over on everybody by just getting rid of Black jurors for the reason that they are educators. Now, they're leaving out something that I think is particularly important, and I wonder why they're leaving it out. Let's head over to this article.
It says, according to CBS News, all eligible African-American jurors were dismissed by prosecutors after a full day of vetting. Much of the questioning centered on Anthony's age, race, and whether jurors would hold it against him if he decided not to testify.

Chapter 3: What claims did Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin make about the case?
It's because they don't want you to have the full story. That in fact, several of these Black people were indicating that they had racial bias and thus could not be a part of the jury on this case. Now, I'm actually going to point people over to Sarah Fields, who's done a ton of coverage of this case, and she has begged The View to have her on in the wake of
this clip and their conversation i don't think that's going to happen but she states here the constitution requires that juries be selected from a fair cross-section of the community it does not require that the final jury contain members of any particular race the view would have you believe otherwise clearly let's keep watching because there's more lies ahead
reason to strike black jurors, especially when it's a young black teenager on trial, and especially when that particular area is made up of 10% of an African-American community.
Let's be clear, they want black jurors on this trial because they know they're gonna have racial bias. They know that if you put a black juror on this trial who has racial bias, that guess what?
Chapter 4: What new evidence has emerged in the Karmelo Anthony case?
You're not gonna get the conviction on Carmelo Anthony. That's essentially what she's saying. She's saying his blackness has a lot to do with this, has a lot to do with the fact that he just decided to stab someone in the chest.
unbelievable and i'm sure somewhere out there there is a black juror who is not going to have racial bias whatsoever and they just so happen to not be a part of this jury selection they didn't have to be constitutionally they didn't have to be i think he got a jury of his peers so i think on appeal there is a legitimate
thing, a legitimate reason. I also think we have to look at self-defense here because there seems to be two systems of justice at play in this country. And there have been for a very long time. I was part of the system. So I understand that. And I believe that to be true. In this case, this young man, you heard him say he put his hands on me and I told him,
The kid that died, and I have so much empathy for him and his family's loss. I bet you do, Sonny. I bet you do. Kid was 200 pounds. This kid was 130 pounds.
Another lie. Okay, so according to several reports, Austin Metcalf, the victim in this case, was between 200 pounds and 213 pounds. There's varying reports on that. She just said that Austin was 200 pounds and that Carmelo Anthony was 130. No, no, no. We have several reports indicating that Carmelo Anthony was actually around 160 to 162 pounds.
You check out the Wikipedia on this particular trial. It says there was a 50 to 60 pound difference between Carmelo Anthony and Austin Metcalf, which shows you the weight range there. He was not, in fact, 130 pounds.
And the other kid was also taller than he is. He was the only Black kid under the tent.
Another lie. He was not the only Black kid under the tent. And we have this fact-checked due to witness accounts, and these are witnesses that testified in the trial. And over and over again, witnesses told the same exact story as to what took place between Austin Metcalf and Carmelo Anthony, thus the conviction of first-degree murder. not the only black kid under the tent.
The victim here had his twin brother with him, who was also a very large person. If you don't fear for your life, if you weigh 130 pounds, I weigh 130 pounds. Facing somebody that's 200 pounds, I would be terrified of that. I don't understand why self-defense was rejected by this jury.

Chapter 5: How does race play a role in the jury selection for this case?
But when the system fails one time, I don't think we should then say, so then the system should fail.
But they're very similar self-defense claims. Well, Sunny, I had a question because I was wondering why the self-defense claim didn't work. And I had read that it said you have to use the same amount of force that was brought against you. So if someone pushes you and you push them back, that self-defense... That's not the standard because it's not only use, but attempted use.
Well, no, that's what I'm asking.
So if you felt... your life was in danger and you felt he was going to do more than just push you and you weigh 130 pounds and you're outweighed by 70 pounds. So you can't use.
No mention of the touch me and see what happens. No mention of the provocation. And again, this reliance on self-defense, self-defense, self-defense, when these are all arguments that the jury heard in this case. And then they took three hours to deliberate and convict him of first degree murder. There you go. Now, you can make arguments about the Rick Chau case.
Several people have argued that the charges brought against Rick Chau did not quite equal up to the actual offenses, and that's why he got away. I mean, we could go back and forth all day over other cases, but right now we're talking about Carmelo Anthony and Austin Metcalf. They heard self-defense. They didn't like it. I'll say it again.
This case, though, which to me is just sad every which way. There's two families that are destroyed. There's, you know, Austin Metcalfe lost his life. Carmelo Anthony is going to spend at least 17 years in jail. So this is just tragic. But my question is, how did this get to this point? And where the hell were the adults? These were two 17-year-olds. I mean...
But what I understand is... It's very interesting, okay? Because 17-year-olds get into altercations all the time. They get into fistfights. You know, you'll hear people say that boys will be boys. They tend to be a little bit more aggressive. They tend to be into roughhousing. They'll tend to find themselves in situations like this.
No mention of the fact that one of these 17-year-old boys had a knife at a track meet. Why is that taking place? One of the 17 year old boys says, touch me and see what happens. And then proceeded to stab somebody in the chest. That seems a little bit out of character for the typical 17 year old boy here in the United States of America. And when she asked the question, where are the parents?
