Karmelo Anthony convicted in just three hours for the shocking murder of 17-year-old standout student and football star Austin Metcalf at what was supposed to be an ordinary track meet in Frisco, Texas. It escalated into a horrific tragedy when a simple dispute over a team tent during a rain delay ended with Metcalf being stabbed in the chest.

Now, hearings are set for August, just six weeks after Anthony was sentenced to prison. He has a new team of lawyers filing motions for a new trial.  Among the issues, attorney say the original trial was effectively closed to the public,  jury instructions were misleading regarding self-defense, Judge John Roach publicly defended the verdict to reporters, and prosecutors did not honor an off-the-record evidentiary agreement. The off-the-record deal prevented the teen from testifying in his own defense.  

The attorneys have also asked for Judge John Roach to be removed from post-trial hearings because of bias. 

A different Collin County judge will hold a hearing on Aug. 19 to on the motion to replace Judge Roach. 

The next day, the defense team will argue their motion for a new trial.
