Breaking news!!!!🚨🚨🚨🚨 this is a leak image of Austin Metcalf father with the Judge and DA that are presiding Karmelo Anthony case . We need to take this to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit right away
Community note
The men in the photo are not Judge John Roach Jr. or Collin County DA Greg Willis, as confirmed by appearance comparisons. Texas state cases are appealed to the 5th Circuit, not the 9th. x.com/CJGRISHAM/stat… dallasnews.com/news/courts/ar… collincountyda.com

The facts from court: 🔹 Karmelo has epilepsy (the CONTINUED assault could have triggered a fatal seizure). 🔹 The massive Metcalf brothers were towering over him. 🔹 Karmelo was SEATED the entire time. How can you be the "aggressor" while remaining seated, when YOUR life is on the line? This is 100% self-defense.

Episode 2: "Say Their Names" Candles flicker. Faces cover the wall. Another life is mourned. As grief fills the streets, Tyhiem stands between two worlds. One calls for patience. The other calls for action. With every new name added to the memorial, one question grows louder

Episode 1: The Weight of Waiting Tyhiem is tired of hearing the same message: be patient. As another name becomes a hashtag, another mural, & another funeral, he begins questioning everything he's been taught about justice, survival, and change. A generation is done waiting.
