The story goes Austin Metcalf asked/told Carmelo Anthony to move from a seat. That escalated into a fatal altercation. Anyone know WHY he asked/told him to move?

The stories say he was in the opposing teams tent, uninvited.

The one kid wanted to steal and proved himself willing to kill for a few small items and some pocket change

I'm glad someone finally started a thread about this. Probably going to be a big one.

Did CA get off the short bus at the meet?

If it were baseball, imagine a player from the other team sitting in your dugout.

He was skipping school, was from another school, uninvited to a team’s tent, and oh by the way had a concealed weapon just for shits and giggles.

He has 3.7 gpa so it’s excusable

To expand on this, a lot of times at a track meet you'll set up a team tent on the bleachers. Your athletes are constantly coming and going so everyone who's out warming up or competing will leave their bags there. It'd be very weird to sit under another team's tent

And two jobs.

A man’s gotta take every chance to rest up that he can.

Has it been established yet if Anthony and Metcalf knew each other and was there any “bad blood” from earlier?

Anthony’s defense team is fricked really. If metcalf was a dick to him and did actually break his cell phone or “bully him” days before that only sets up the premeditation of the murder even more

There is really no story or set of events that could justify it.

There were parents, coaches, security guards, cops etc, all over. No one’s life was in jeopardy. No one can say they feared for their lives.

Even if the victim ends up having started it, which doesn’t seem likely, it won’t matter.

The Bladerunner could’ve walked away.

You missed my point. The prosecution is going to want metcalf to have “started it” in terms of something happening on the preceding days. That makes the day of the stabbing premeditated by Anthony

They are going for first degree murder

bigger question is how do they get anyone to go out to watch a track meet? I don't recall ever seeing fans at track meets all through jhs and hs

Maybe one referred to the other as the word that can’t be used?

You can almost surely bet that will come up whether true or not.
