GiveSendGo has taken down a £496,000 ($630,000) fundraiser for Karmelo Anthony shortly after a Texas jury convicted the 19‑year‑old of first‑degree murder. The campaign, which had drawn steady public support, was removed on Wednesday, stopping further donations.
Anthony was sentenced to 35 years in prison on Tuesday for the fatal stabbing of 17‑year‑old Austin Metcalf. The incident occurred during a high school track meet in April 2025, and the platform ended the fundraising drive following the conclusion of the trial.
