A trial date for Karmelo Anthony‘s murder case has been set.
Court records show the teenager — who is accused of stabbing and killing Austin Metcalf during a dispute at a high school track meet — is slated to appear before a judge and jury in Collin County, Texas on June 1, 2026.
A court official tells TMZ Sports that date is tentative — and it’s entirely possible it gets pushed out further. But, the official added it’s rare set dates ever get moved up.
Anthony is currently facing one count of first-degree murderover allegations he took Metcalf’s life on April 2 while the two were quarrelling over a seat.
Anthony’s attorney, Mike Howard, said last month his client’s actions were “self-defense.” He also stated he fully expects “the jury will reach the right conclusion and justice will be done” as the case unfolds in the court system.
A docket control hearing was also scheduled in Anthony’s case file for next week … but the 17-year-old is not required to attend.
Prosecutors say Anthony is facing up to life in prison if he’s ultimately convicted.
