Frisco ISD subpoenaed for student names, records in connection to Karmelo Anthony case
The subpoena is in connection to the case of The State of Texas vs Karmelo Anthony, the student accused of fatally stabbing Austin Metcalf, another student at the track meet.
The school district notified parents via letter on July 24, as identifying information of students is protected from release without parental consent under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) except when a school is required to release that information under a subpoena.
It is not clear how many students were present at the track meet.
Anthony, who is facing a first-degree murder charge, has been on house arrest since being released on a reduced bond on April 14. If convicted, Anthony could face a possible sentence of 5-99 years or life in prison. He was indicted for murder by a Collin County grand jury in June.
A Collin County judge has set a trial date of June 1, 2026 for Anthony.

Pursuant to FERPA requirements found in 34 C.F.R. 99.31 (a)(9)(ii), the District is providing you with notice of a subpoena it received in Cause No. 296-83565-2025. Our records indicate that your student attended, or was scheduled to attend, the track meet at Kuykendall Stadium on April 2, 2025; therefore, a record responsive to the subpoena contains what would be considered your student's personally identifiable information per FERPA.

Please provide a list of all student-athletes from Memorial HS, including their full name, date of birth, address, parents' names and contact information, who attended a track meet at the Kuykendall stadium on 04/02/2025.
If you seek protective action against the disclosure of this record, please email a copy of your motion and/or notice of hearing to me at [redacted], on or before July 29, 2025, so that I am aware of the status as to whether the record containing your/your student's information must be released. Otherwise, the District will have to comply with the subpoena pursuant to Texas Code of Criminal 24.06, and release the record on July 29th. Thank you for considering this request.

Ghislaine Maxwell's attorneys oppose DOJ efforts to unseal grand jury transcripts
Attorneys for Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's imprisoned associate, said Tuesday they oppose the Justice Department's request that a federal judge release grand jury transcripts from her sex trafficking case. The lawyers said in a court filing in the Southern District of New York that they could not support the unsealing of transcripts in New York as requested last month by the Justice Department because Maxwell has 'not seen the material and cannot take an informed position.'

Former New Zealand top cop Jevon McSkimming charged over child porn, bestiality material
New Zealand's former deputy police commissioner lost the right to anonymity Monday after he was charged with possessing child sexual exploitation and bestiality material. Jevon McSkimming was arrested in June and charged with eight counts of possessing objectionable material, but the courts had prevented media from reporting his name or other details of the case. Appearing in Wellington District Court on Monday, McSkimming opted not to seek an extension of the suppression order. His lawyer, Letizea Ord, told Judge Tim Black 'there is not a further application in respect of name suppression. It's accepted that it can lapse today.' He is yet to enter a plea. Asked as he left court if he had a message for the public, McSkimming said: 'No'. The 52-year-old is alleged to have possessed child exploitation material and bestiality between specific dates. One of the charges states the offenses happened between July 2020 and December 2024. McSkimming was suspended from his job on full pay in December 2024, when an investigation into his conduct was launched. Details of those allegations cannot be reported. He was on leave for six months before his resignation in May. Judge Black remanded McSkimming on bail, and he will reappear before the court in November.
