Karmelo Anthony once had thousands, if not millions, of supporters from around the country.
That has changed considerably.
The Karmelo Anthony Help Fund has become one of the most-discussed fundraising campaigns in recent memory.
The family of the Texas teen has been at the center of national media in recent weeks after the 17-year-old allegedly st@bbed another boy to d3ath at a track meet in Frisco on April 2. Since the incident, Anthony’s family has raised more than $515,000 on the crowdsourcing platform GiveSendGo.
The campaign has not yet reached its $600,000 goal, but it appears the family is in need of more money.
Many online reports state that Anthony’s parents blew through half a million dollars and are allegedly asking for more money. His supporters are not only unhappy, some of them are demanding to have their money back.
Anthony, the now 18-year-old accused of f@tally st@bbing another teen during an altercation at a Frisco ISD track meet in early April, was indicted for murd3r by a Collin County grand jury on Tuesday.
The teen, who is facing a first-degree murd3r charge, has been on house arrest since being released on a reduced bond
