As the gag order is lifted in the Karmelo Anthony and Austin Metcalf case, the 17-year-old stabbing victim’s father, Jeff Metcalf, goes nuclear on the parents of the teen who killed his son: Andrew Anthony and Kala Hayes Anthony.
As we previously shared, on Tuesday (June 9), a White judge read the verdict after an all-White jury deliberated for less than 2 hours, convicting Karmelo of first-degree murder. Hours later, the judge sentenced him to 35 years in prison, eligible for parole in 17.5 years.
On Wednesday evening (June 10), an interview surfaced online with Jeff Metcalf. As he spoke with Sarah Fields on the JinxedSip Podcast, Jeff held nothing back as he spoke for nearly 3 hours straight. After revealing officials lifted the gag order, Jeff called out Karmelo’s parents. He said:
“Drew Anthony, Kala, you’re cowards. You wouldn’t even show up for your son’s sentencing or victim statement impact. You abandoned your kid. You left him there. I guess he’s no more use to you ‘cause you can’t get anymore GoFundMe money or [Give]SendGo money. You are grifters. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You raised that child and I swear to God, CPS should come check on those other three that you still have. You never once admitted or took accountability. You tried to play victim. The real victim is the one who died. Not the one who shoved a knife in his chest.”

Jeff continued to claim that he stood in prayer with the family in hopes to “close the gap on this unbelievable racial divide,” but that they only “widened the gap even further.” He continued to call out everyone pulling the race card. He said, “The race card, Black fatigue, it’s real. I’m sorry. You’ve embarrassed your own culture and race.” He continued to claim he is “not racist.” However, he added that he is “racist against a**holes. I don’t like them. I could care less about the color of your skin. We all bleed the same color.”
Jeff continued to fire off on Karmelo’s parents:
“Drew, you’re a p***y and a coward, and you raised one. Kala, you drunk b*tch. What’d you do to that boy to make him stab somebody? My God, what kind of mother are you?”
Jeff went on to taunt folks pulling the race card and offered to make up a racist name for Karmelo, dubbing him “Watermelon Felon.” He asked, “How’s that one strike ya? I hope he enjoyed his first night in that cell last night, ‘cause he’s gonna have many nights to think about what the f**k he did.” Jeff continued to speak on forgiving Karmelo to continue living in peace. He says, ”I forgive him, so I don’t carry the hate.”
