Karmelo Anthony may have admitted to stabbing high school football star Austin Metcalf to death, but he is certainly not lacking in support.
The Texas teen had an online fundraiser started for him, and it has reached incredible levels.
The donations are continuing to pour in, with more than 5,400 people donating $200,000 as of Monday night on GiveSendGo — a fundraising platform.
The money is coming in so fast that the original goal has been changed for a second time: now, it is asking for $300,000.
The Karmelo Anthony family set up the “Help Karmelo Official Fund,” claiming a “false, unjust, and harmful” narrative is being spread about the slaying.
His original goal was $100,000, but now that things have escalated to well past $200K, the new goal has been changed to $300,000 for Karmelo.
