Karmelo Anthony Seeks New Trial, Judge Ouster Over 35-Year Sentence
Defense counsel for Karmelo Anthony is pursuing dual post-conviction motions — recusal of the trial judge and a new trial — ahead of hearings on August 19-20, 2026. The defense alleges a breached pretrial evidence agreement and a rushed Fifth Amendment advisement, while the Collin County DA's office maintains the trial was ethical and compliant. The proceedings test Texas recusal standards and the enforceability of informal pretrial agreements.
