法官将17岁在学校被刺伤的被告的保证金从1万美元减至250美元, Judge reduces bond for 17-year-old accused in school stabbing from $1M to $250K, sparks debate.

一名Collin县法官将17岁的Karmelo Anthony的保释金从100万美元减至250 000美元,后者被控在一次高中赛道比赛期间致命刺杀Austin Metcalf。 A Collin County judge reduced the bond of 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony, accused of fatally stabbing Austin Metcalf during a high school track meet, from $1 million to $250,000. 法官命令将Anthony软禁起来,如果他发保证金,则戴上脚踝监视器。 The judge ordered Anthony to be placed under house arrest and wear an ankle monitor if he posts bond. 辩方辩称,由于Anthony没有犯罪史和其家庭的经济负担,应减少保证金,而检察官则表示反对,并援引为Anthony的法律费用募集40多万美元的筹款活动为理由。 The defense argued for bond reduction due to Anthony's lack of criminal history and the financial burden on his family, while prosecutors opposed it, citing the fundraiser that has raised over $400,000 for Anthony's legal fees.
