New images released Friday show the fatal wound Austin Metcalf sustained when Karmelo Anthony<\/a> stabbed him with a knife during a confrontation at a Texas high school track meet, as well as the moments after the killing.<\/p>\n

The photos were made public Friday by Collin County court following Anthony’s first-degree murder conviction earlier this month.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Among the other images released were a blood-soaked jacket and the folding Ozark Trail multi-tool knife prosecutors said was used to fatally stab Metcalf, as well as the bleachers at David Kuykendall Stadium<\/a> in Frisco <\/a>on April 2, 2025.<\/p>\n

The newly released trial exhibits from the murder case include crime scene photos, images of the knife prosecutors said was used in the stabbing, 911 calls and police body-camera footage shown to jurors.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The body-camera video captures the moments after Anthony was taken into custody following the fatal stabbing of Metcalf at a high school track meet. In the footage, Anthony is heard telling officers, “He put his hands on me. I told him not to. He put his hands on me.”<\/p>\n

Anthony used a blade to stab Metcalf<\/a> after the teen and his brother confronted him while sitting in their team\u2019s tent at Memorial High School. Anthony, who was 17 at the time, admitted he stabbed Metcalf but claimed he acted in self-defense.<\/p>\n

Anthony was sentenced this month to 35 years in prison for the stabbing, which ignited a wave of criticism from Anthony’s supporters over the makeup of the jury. Anthony will be eligible for parole after serving half his sentence.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Collin County District Judge John Roach, who authorized the release of the images and videos, told Fox News Digital that he understood the public’s desire to know what happened in the case.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The overwhelming focus on my ruling regarding the media in the courtroom was to protect the process, witnesses, and jury. Now that the trial is over, it is important to me to provide transparency,” he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Metcalf’s father, Jeff Metcalf, previously told Fox News Digital that surveillance footage of his son’s fatal stabbing would contradict many of the claims that circulated online after the deadly confrontation at a Texas track meet.
\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, with Collin County releasing trial exhibits presented to jurors, the public is getting its first look at evidence shown during Anthony’s murder trial<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Metcalf, who viewed the footage before it was played in court, said he believed its release would answer lingering questions about what happened beneath the Memorial High School team tent the day of the murder.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The video clearly shows the conversation lasted less than 10 seconds. That’s it,” Metcalf previously told Fox News Digital. “There was no four-on-one.”<\/p>\n

Metcalf said the footage contradicts claims that Anthony was jumped, surrounded or attacked by multiple students before the stabbing.<\/p>\n

“He wasn’t jumped. There was no four-on-one. He wasn’t surrounded,” Metcalf said. “Look at the video. There’s a shove and there’s a stab, and it’s over and he runs away. That’s it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
