They're hiding behind state law.

If you read the school policy:

"By law, once a student meets all graduation requirements - whether at their home campus or JJAEP - they are eligible to receive a diploma."

JJAEP is Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program

So a student could rape another student on campus, be caught in the act, be arrested, be expelled - and still receive their diploma.

They need to change this state law.

Diplomas do not have to be given out at a ceremony. They can be mailed or picked up in other ways.

It is clear he will not "walk" and therefore will not be at the ceremony....

---

He should be banned from all school property. I spent some time in DAEP during HS and that was part of it

He wouldn't even be able to go to the graduation ceremony if the district is following their discipline policies

---

This is state law. If a student is assigned to DAEP, or in Anthonys case facing murder charges they are not allowed on any school property, or allowed to attend any school function events for any district.

Not to mention, isn't part of his bond agreement is that he's on house arrest?


If he's earned enough credits to get his diploma I don't see the big deal about him getting it. I mean its a high school diploma. It is basically worthless to begin with.

Karmelo The Murderer's family and race baiting hustler law group will take the "no walk" issue as a challenge, now. Time till ceremony may be running out, but it ain't over yet.

FISD would likely postpone it, rather than tell the mob "no, and that's it".

Somebody on here predicted very early on that they'd end up letting 'Melo graduate.

So credit to that poster wherever you are.

The district cannot talk about another student with anyone. It's the law.

Completing state requirements to receive a diploma is a dumb hill to die on.

Now being able to walk….terrible idea…..takes focus off of other students and puts them at risk.

Met requirements, gets diploma….just like any number of other people who commit crimes or are in jail completing GED programs.

So it's ok to bring a knife to a high school event?

Good to know.

curious what point you're trying to make?

I would be ineterested to see how he earned the degree anyway......I am sure hes stellar at math and writing.

If he's walking, I'd pull my kid out. Somebody gonna shoot him.

It was against the law for that little murderous piece of human excrement to kill Austin Metcalf by stabbing him at a FISD sanctioned event, on public school grounds, but that didn't stop him, did it?

Should have been expelled, immediately, for nothing more than carrying the weapon to the event.

Expelled, thus no diploma.

the problem with this is what about if Earl or Jim Bob gets caught with a pocket knife in their 13MWZ's out at the Ag barn they forgot was in their pocket? Expel them as well for an honest mistake? It's not as cut and dry as many want to make it out to be.

In the long run who gives a flying F if he gets a diploma or not? It will serve him no use in prison.

Maybe that it is absolutely NOT ok to bring a knife to a school event, unless you are black and want to murder a white dude. But I'm just guessing

Imagine the optics if he were to receive a standing ovation from some of the crowd or fellow students..

who was the poster claiming it was okay bring a knife to a school event? maybe I'm not understanding your post? what it meant as sarcasm?

If he shows up the speakers at the graduation are going to have to pivot their speeches pretty hard.

"Today is the first day of the rest of your lives. The future is full of promise and the sky is the limit…… except for you Karmelo. You're ****ed. Enjoy prison"

Actually now that I think about it I want this to happen. Imagine how uncomfortable he would be

Imagine the police present required to prevent a riot the moment his name is called.

If he's been expelled, he legally cannot be at the ceremony, and a student expelled wouldn't be announced even. The message from the administration very heavily implied that was the case while not explicitly stating it. He can't state that due to federal privacy laws.

There is a big difference with your own comparison that would allow the POE to NOT receive his diploma.

Apparently a lot of people. Shameful they don't think like you right? People are starting to care a lot about white people getting targeted and then shaming the white person after they've been murdered while doing a fundraiser tour. Honestly you're so wrong its insulting.

Edit: The Ags at the ag barn aren't out looking to kill someone over getting told to leave, so the honest mistake will be looked at as an honest mistake. Take a knife out when you're clearly under the wrong teams tent in your scenario would be those Ags going and sitting the sips Ag barn and pull a knife and stab someone when something gets said, which it always would. Quit defending a murderer.

I'm not defending the murder at all. My point is in education with cut and dry rules it sometimes screws over the AG barn type of kids if the rules were "get caught with a knife=expelled". You cant put that in writing for instances when a kid making an honest mistake. And with the way mommy's and daddy's complain so much with discpline these days thats how it is done.

I would have ZERO problems with Melo being expelled and not getting a degree. But I also see the other side where the district just gives him his diploma if he has the credits so they can just move along and not deal with the headaches of additional lawsuits from his black panther advocates.

I promise you I'm 100% hardass conservative, but I also see the other side from the districts point of not wanting to die on the hill of expelling him if he has the credits already to get a diploma. They are already dealing with a crap ton of problems with this murder. I understand them not wanting to have to deal with even more if they dont have to.

Again, it's a freaking high school diploma that is basically worthless in todays society. It's not that big a deal in the grand scheme of things. If he wants to hang it up in his jail cell then more power to him.

When does the Grand Jury convene?

There is a big difference between a pocket knife and a prohibited weapon.

I don't think this is one of the exceptions from sovereign immunity that protects ISDs but I haven't looked in a while.

One of civil lawyers can explain further, but I don't think there's going to be much of a case there!

Alexander is going to be the downfall of this family. In the court of public opinion, he is doing much more harm than good. He has flat out lied, as you pointed out, and painted the Anthony family as victims while shaming the Metcalf family publicly the day after they buried their son. Plus, the man can barely speak English. Multiple times, he referred to Karmelo Anthony's actions as self-deflence. Once, I could easily buy he misspoke, but each time he was supposed to say self-defense he ended up saying self-deflence. He is not the spokesperson you want for your family.

That's totally wrong. He shot three BLACK people in the back. You gotta get it right.
