Outgoing Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett is doubling down on incendiary remarks she made following the sentencing of killer Karmelo Anthony.
High school football player Austin Metcalf was viciously stabbed in the heart in a dispute over seating turf inside a Memorial High School tent, where Anthony wasn’t supposed to be.
Austin’s twin brother, Hunter, was part of the argument, witnessed the senseless stabbing, and held his beloved brother as he died.
It took a diverse jury just three hours to find Metcalf guilty of murder and to sentence him to over 30 years in prison with a possibility of parole in 17.5 years.
Crockett fumed over the sentence and made disgraceful headlines when she responded by arguing that black women raising black boys suffer more than the Metcalf family probably ever did.

But Crockett wasn’t done, not by a long shot.
She continued her nonsensical excuse-making tirade for the inexcusable by suggesting she’d act the same way as Anthony since Metcalf was the equivalent of a “300-pound” football player readying to beat Anthony into oblivion — despite there being no evidence of any of that.

Crockett’s despicable and disingenuous take drew plenty of backlash and disgust on X:
Austin Metcalf was not “300 pounds”
He was not “on top of” Karmelo.
He also was not “beating him down…”
Literally every single line of this is a fake reality, all of it.

The Metcalf family should sue her into oblivion

Jasmine Crockett is here doing her ghetto version Obamas “if I had a son” speech.
A 300lb MAN? Austin wasn’t 300lbs he was a thin teenager.
And he was murdered. The murderer was tried and convicted. This is how the law works. You cannot have it both ways.—

omg is she nuts? These were teenage boys in HS, not professional football players. And no one was beat, or beat down etc. In fact, the dead teen refused to fight Anothy at all.

She has murder in her heart, and she is alarmingly stupid. She is putting this out there as a sitting member of Congress. Hard to believe, but this is where we are. She is lying about what happened. Austin was not violently attacking Karmelo. She’s lying.

She is blatantly lying, and it’s a mystery how she sleeps at night.
