A judge in Collin County, Texas, will consider whether to grant Karmelo Anthony a new trial following his conviction for the stabbing death of a 17-year-old athlete at a high school track meet earlier this summer. The hearing is scheduled for Thursday, one day after the judge who presided over Anthony’s initial murder trial was removed from further proceedings in the case. No reason for the judge’s removal was given in reports. The move follows a legal victory for Anthony, suggesting grounds for a potential retrial. The case centers on the death of the athlete, but details of the legal arguments for a new trial have not been released. It remains unsettled what evidence or arguments led to the judge’s removal and how that will affect the upcoming hearing.
