“Broken System” – Crockett Defends Convicted Murderer Karmelo Anthony… Because He ‘Only’ Stabbed Austin Metcalf ‘One Time’

Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett defended convicted murderer Karmelo Anthony in remarks to TMZ.

Thankfully, Jasmine Crockett’s career in Congress ends this year.

Crockett admitted to TMZ that she was not at the Karmelo Anthony murder trial yet she insisted there is evidence of a broken system.

Karmelo Anthony was sentenced to 35 years in prison after a jury convicted him of murder in the fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf.

Numerous witnesses testified that Karmelo Anthony was the aggressor and instigated the fight with Austin Metcalf.

Karmelo Anthony stabbed Austin Metcalf in the heart. The teen track star died in his twin brother’s arms.

But Crockett feels sorry for convicted murderer Karmelo Anthony.

The Texas Democrat told TMZ that her heart is “broken” for Karmelo Anthony.

Crockett explained that Karmelo Anthony only stabbed Austin Metcalf one time, so it’s not really a serious crime.

Lawful Permanent Resident From India Living in Upscale Corona del Mar BUSTED for Defrauding Bank of Nearly $100 MILLION – Forged Title Policies in Adobe, Altered Metadata, and Lied to Lenders!

Mahender Makhijani, 44, a lawful permanent resident from India residing in the upscale enclave of Corona del Mar, was arrested this morning on a federal criminal complaint charging him with bank fraud.

Makhijani controlled Cantor Group V LLC, a Newport Beach-based outfit that had a lending deal with a federally insured bank. Under the agreement, the bank advanced nearly $100 million so Cantor could originate or purchase real estate loans, but only first-lien loans where Cantor held the top position on the collateral.

Instead of playing straight, Makhijani and a subordinate spent months from September 2024 through April 2025 systematically falsifying title insurance policies.

They used Adobe software to doctor the documents, making it appear Cantor held first-lien positions when other creditors were actually ahead in line. They altered or stripped metadata — including by printing out the fakes and rescanning them — then submitted the bogus records to the bank.

Makhijani didn’t stop there. He personally joined teleconferences with bank reps and fed them misleading explanations. In December 2024, he caused a spreadsheet full of false information to be sent over.

The bank relied on these lies when deciding to keep advancing funds. Had the truth come out earlier, the bank would have declared Cantor in default and demanded immediate repayment of the full $100 million.

If convicted, Makhijani faces a statutory maximum of 30 years in federal prison.

Two Former Utah Clerks Arrested for Helping Illegals Evade ICE – Defiant Clerks Flip Off Surveillance Camera After Sneaking Illegals Out Back Door of Courthouse

Two former Utah clerks were arrested and charged with helping illegal aliens evade ICE.

Jennifer Joma, 27, and Lauren Kelsey Morrow, 26, both of Logan, Utah, were indicted June 3, 2026, the DOJ announced on Wednesday.

“Joma and Morrow are charged with conspiracy to transport and harbor illegal aliens, harboring illegal aliens, and obstruction of proceedings before departments and agencies. Joma is also charged with transporting illegal aliens,” the DOJ said.

According to authorities, Joma and Morrow were working at the Logan City Municipal Justice Court when ICE agents arrived at the court to arrest an illegal alien.

The two female clerks learned that ICE was at the court and helped the illegal aliens slip through the back door to evade arrest.

After sneaking the illegal aliens out the back door of the courthouse, Morrow and Joma laughed as they flipped off the surveillance cameras.

According to the DOJ, on the second trip, Joma drove off with three illegal aliens in her car before returning alone to the courthouse for work.

Per the DOJ:

An indictment was unsealed, and two former Utah state court clerks have been arrested after they allegedly helped an illegal alien evade U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrest. The clerks also allegedly obstructed immigration proceedings and the lawful enforcement of United States immigration laws by helping at least one of three other illegal aliens escape out a backdoor of the Logan City Municipal Justice Court so that ICE could not arrest or deport them.

According to allegations in court documents, on April 9, 2026, Joma and Morrow were working at the Logan City Municipal Justice Court in Logan when an ICE Enforcement and Removal Officer (ICE-ERO) entered the justice court to arrest an illegal alien for immigration related charges. The ICE officer had an administrative warrant for the illegal alien who was at the justice court for a court hearing. The ICE officer left the secure area and eventually went outside and waited in his car for his target to leave the courthouse before trying to make the lawful arrest.

As alleged in court documents, after Joma and Morrow learned that ICE was there to arrest an illegal alien, they took steps to identify ICE’s target. These steps included misusing court databases to determine the alienage of everyone who was listed on the court docket. During their searches, they identified multiple non-U.S. citizens, and before those non-citizens would leave the courthouse, Joma and Morrow intercepted them.

ICE’s intended target was among the unauthorized aliens whom Joma and Morrow helped slip out a backdoor of the courthouse. Joma and Morrow led the individuals down a secure area, several hallways, and eventually out of the courthouse without being seen by ICE.

After sneaking out the back door of the courthouse for the first time with an alien, Morrow and Joma were spotted on a surveillance camera waving and smiling at it, and Morrow used her middle finger in an obscene gesture at the camera. On the second trip, Joma drove off with three aliens in her car before returning alone to the courthouse for work.

Jasmine Crockett’s Gaping Maw Is Still Belching Up Filth

After losing the Texas Democratic Senate primary to James “Beef Is Planet Murder” Talarico, I really expected Jasmine Crockett to start showing up in front of every camera she could find to scream “racism,” “sexism,” and whatever other permavictim “ism” she could think of. Democrats don’t deal with defeat very well, after all. 

Ultra-entitled Democrats like Crockett have no coping mechanisms for it whatsoever. 

Well, Crockett finally came out of her lair of resentment to offer her opinions on the (much too light) Karmelo Anthony verdict and sentence. This is from Catherine:

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), one of the most morally despicable stooges in Congress, claimed murdered teen Austin Metcalf’s family have never suffered as she suffers for being black, and that killer Karmelo Anthony was justified in randomly stabbing Metcalf to death.

The piece of human debris who, thank God, will soon be out of Congress, claimed, as the culmination of a lengthy and ignorant lecture on her show about the Anthony case, “Black women, especially black women who have black male children, live in fear and agony every single day — a fear and agony that I promise you the Metcalfs probably never spend a day living that way. And we’re going to have to have some real conversations about race in this country.” Yes, she actually claimed that, in 2026, simply having black skin brings more fear and sorrow into a person’s life than losing your son to a senseless, unjustified murder.

Crockett says “black” three times in the first ten words of one sentence, so she was really leaning into this playing of the race card. By the way, the soon-to-be ex-congresswoman doesn’t have any children, male, female, or black. A complete lack of experience about a subject has never kept Crockett from speaking with authority on it, though. 

It’s always weird and irritating when Crockett attempts to pretend to be down with the struggle in any way. She was educated at a “Country Day” school and an exclusive all-girls Catholic high school. It wasn’t exactly a mean streets upbringing. She’s also owned a law firm and been a member of Congress. Her rough edges narrative is really weak.

Jasmine Crockett suggests she also would have stabbed Austin Metcalf in stunning defense of Karmelo Anthony

Lame-duck Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) suggested during an unhinged episode podcast that she too would have stabbed track star Austin Metcalf — after Karmelo Anthony was convicted of first-degree murder in the racially charged case.

On Tuesday’s episode of “Clock It with Crockett,” the failed Senate candidate let loose a torrent of falsehoods to paint a picture of the brutal slaying of 17-year-old Metcalf that had virtually no basis in reality.

The cavalcade of inaccuracies started with Crockett downplaying the size of the semi-serrated, 5-inch pocket knife Anthony was convicted of plunging into Metcalf’s chest during a dispute at a track meet at Memorial High School in Frisco, Texas, last April.

“Wait a minute, it was this?” she said, holding her thumb and forefinger about an inch apart to demonstrate the size of the murder weapon.

“Was it a switch? I don’t know what he had,” Crockett said, inadvertently telegraphing her flimsy grasp of the facts of the case that has roiled her home state for more than a year.

One of her guests claimed the knife was “a multi-tool” akin to a Swiss army knife.

“Yeah, like with the little scissors and everything and whatever. So it was small,” Crockett said, furrowing her brow and squinting her eyes in disbelief.

“Well, I would argue the size of it alone, you wouldn’t even think it’s a deadly weapon.”

Tensions Boil Over Outside Courthouse After Karmelo Anthony Found Guilty of Murder – Deputies Make Arrests

Tensions boiled over outside the Collin County Courthouse after a jury convicted Karmelo Anthony of murder in the fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf.

The jury in the Karmelo Anthony murder case reached a swift verdict after deliberating for more than two hours on Tuesday.

The jury found Karmelo Anthony guilty of murder. He faces life in prison.

Karmelo Anthony and his mother sobbed in court after the judge read the guilty verdict.

The jury still hasn’t decided on Karmelo Anthony’s sentencing.

Black Panthers gathered outside the courthouse and defended Karmelo Anthony.

“We got to tell our kids the truth that this is a racist ass country! We gotta tell them the truth,” one of the Black Panthers shouted.

“Don’t nobody want to hear about what we do to each other. We talking about what they doing to US!” she said.

“White folks kill white folks. Mexicans kill Mexicans. We ain’t trying to hear no cool sh*t today. Go open up them white folks with that. This is a racist-ass country!” she added.

Deputies made swift arrests as protestors clashed.

UK Plans To JAIL Tech CEOs Who Refuse To SPY On Every Phone

New measures would compel client-side inspection of every photo, video and message on devices, escalating the digital ID lockdown already plotted for British smartphones in coordination with major technology firms.

Privacy advocates warn the “child safety” framing masks a broader drive to turn personal phones into mandatory surveillance endpoints, with criminal penalties aimed at any executive who resists.

Reclaim The Net, an organization dedicated to countering online censorship and digital surveillance, flagged the draft legislation in recent updates. 

The group described how UK authorities are preparing to imprison tech executives for up to five years under the Online Safety Act if companies refuse to build and deploy scanners capable of reviewing every piece of content on user devices.

The push targets expanded “client-side scanning” features, requiring devices to inspect material before it is sent or received.

Existing tools from Apple and Google, such as nudity detection in Messages or sensitive content warnings, would be broadened into comprehensive, always-active systems. Non-compliance would trigger direct penalties against company leadership rather than the firms alone.

DISGUSTING VIDEO: Karmelo Anthony Supporter Declares ‘Both Brothers Should’ve Been Dead’ Outside Courthouse After Guilty Verdict, Black Panthers Push ‘Race War’

After a Collin County jury unanimously convicted 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony of murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf in a brutal stabbing at a Frisco high school track meet, supporters of the convicted killer erupted in fury outside the Texas courthouse.

Independent journalist Nick Sortor captured shocking footage of Anthony’s deranged supporters openly calling for the death of Metcalf’s twin brother Hunter, who witnessed the murder, and the crowd expressing their agreement.

In the video posted by Sortor on X Tuesday evening, a woman at the courthouse rants that “BOTH of the brothers should’ve been dead, if you ask me.”

The surrounding supporters of the murderer nod and voice agreement.

Sortor’s caption on the video read, “Karmelo Anthony supporter says Karmelo should’ve killed Austin’s twin brother HUNTER as well. And the Karmelo group AGREES with her. They’re OPENLY calling for MURDER. This was NEVER about self-defense. Some of them just want to see white people murdered in cold blood. They can’t be reasoned with.”

Anthony, a Black teen, stabbed white 17-year-old Austin Metcalf in the chest during an altercation at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco on April 2, 2025.

Austin Metcalf’s identical twin brother, Hunter Metcalf, was not only at the track meet but also witnessed the fatal stabbing.

Born just four minutes after Austin, Hunter told Karmelo Anthony to leave the Memorial High School team tent during the rain delay.

Austin then stepped in to confront Anthony.

Hunter was right there when Anthony pulled the knife and stabbed his brother in the chest.

According to police reports and witness accounts, Hunter immediately rushed to Austin’s side, tried desperately to stop the bleeding, and held his twin in his arms as Austin took his last breath and died despite lifesaving efforts by first responders.

The brothers were inseparable. They played football together as standout athletes, worked the same part-time job at a local pizzeria, attended church youth group, cleaned the house, did yard work, and did nearly everything together.

Their bond was described by the family as unbreakable until that moment.

Hunter later accepted Austin’s posthumous diploma at their high school graduation in an emotional ceremony that drew a standing ovation.

Prosecutors never called Hunter to testify during the trial. He was kept out of the courtroom as a potential witness, but his presence and raw grief were described as those in the courtroom as being evident in bodycam footage played for the jury, showing him sobbing and screaming as he tried to save his brother.

Anthony claimed self-defense, but eyewitnesses, video evidence, and testimony presented over eight days of trial proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that the claim was false.

The jury deliberated for less than three hours before returning a guilty verdict on murder charges on Tuesday.

The same jury will now decide sentencing.

This wasn’t the only racial bloodlust on display outside the courthouse, as Black Panthers and supporters declared “THIS IS A WAR” and told the crowd, “We got to tell our kids the truth that this is a RACIST-ASS COUNTRY… Don’t NOBODY want to hear about what we do to each other. We talking about what they doing to US!”

Karmelo Anthony Sentenced to 35 Years in Prison – Eligible For Parole After Half Time Served – Austin Metcalf’s Dad Unloads on Karmelo Anthony

This is outrageous.

Karmelo Anthony was sentenced to 35 years in prison after a jury convicted him of murder in the fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf.

19-year-old Karmelo Anthony will be eligible for parole after half time served.

He was facing 99 years in prison.

16-year-old track and football star Austin Metcalf was brutally stabbed to death by Karmelo Anthony in April 2025 during a championship track meet at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco, Texas.

Numerous eyewitnesses testified that Karmelo Anthony was the aggressor and instigated the fight.

Austin Metcalf’s father unloaded on Karmelo Anthony:

“We were robbed, don’t look down, of all of these things.”

“I said from day one, this was never about race, please don’t politicize it. But what did you choose to do, both. It’s about right and wrong. We’re all humans. We all bleed the same color.

“You’re free to make choices all you want, but you’re not free from those consequences. You will face those consequences starting today.”

“People think that grief is sadness but its not. IT”S RAGE!!! (slamming his hands on the table.) Pure unfiltered rage,’ he shouts.

“You failed your parents, your failed yourself and you failed society, You don’t belong in this community,” he says to Karmelo.

“You’re going to prison, You can’t even look me in the eyes right now but you can stab my fu**ing son in the heart.”

Crime Doesn’t Pay, But US Government Grants Do

InSight Crime, a thinktank which claims to fuse “investigative journalism with academic rigor,” accuses Nicaragua’s government of “hiring assassins” to hunt down and kill opponents abroad. This bold accusation is based on no more than “circumstantial” evidence, strongly suggesting political motivation. This fact-impoverished rush to judgment reflects a more general bias of the US-aligned corporate press, which seeks to demonize Nicaragua and its Sandinista political leadership.

The focus of the thinktank’s article is the death of Roberto Samcam, a former Nicaraguan army officer, exiled in Costa Rica. He was assassinated by gunmen in his home in a gated community in the capital, San Jose, on June 19, 2025. InSight Crime says he was killed because he was “fomenting regime change” in Nicaragua. Supposedly linked to this crime are two failed attempts to murder a Nicaraguan associate, Joao Maldonado, also exiled in Costa Rica and – like Samcam – an opponent of Nicaragua’s Sandinista government.

So far, almost a year after Samcam’s murder, the authorities have made four arrests in the case. All the arrested are Costa Ricans and none have been brought to trial. Keny Navarrete, a Nicaraguan criminal incarcerated in Costa Rica, is said to have coordinated the assassination. Navarette, who has no known connection to Nicaragua’s government, has been serving multiple sentences in Costa Rican prisons since 2016: supposedly he was able to orchestrate the crime from his prison cell.

Samcam’s criminal record 

InSight Crime notes in passing that both Samcam and Maldonado were “charged with crimes” in Nicaragua, but nevertheless the author, Steven Dudley, asserts that “Samcam was not a criminal.” Curiously for a prize-winning crime investigator, Dudley completely ignores the real violent crimes carried out by Samcam, Maldonado and the groups they led in the Carazo region of Nicaragua in 2018, during a coup attempt against its Sandinista government. An email to InSight Crime asking why he omitted Samcam’s backstory received no reply.
