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.

Ghislaine Maxwell Petitions Supreme Court to Overturn Sex Trafficking Conviction
Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's longtime co-conspirator, is serving a 20-year prison sentenceNEED TO KNOW Ghislaine Maxwell is seeking to have her sex trafficking conviction overturned by the Supreme Court Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year sentence following her 2021 conviction Maxwell is Jeffrey Epstein's longtime co-conspiratorGhislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's longtime co-conspirator, is attempting to have her sex trafficking conviction overturned. Maxwell's attorneys wrote in a Supreme Court petition obtained by PEOPLE that she should have received immunity as part of Epstein's controversial deal with federal prosecutors that they claim shields her from prosecution. Epstein served just over a year in prison after pleading guilty in 2008 to state prostitution charges, following an agreement with the U.S. Attorney in the Southern District of Florida. As part of the deal, federal prosecutors dropped the charges against Epstein as long as he pleaded guilty to state charges. According to Maxwell's attorneys, the non-prosecution agreement stated that 'the United States also agrees that it will not institute any criminal charges against any potential co-conspirators of Epstein." Maxwell's attorneys contend that Maxwell is covered by that agreement. "...This case is about what the government promised, not what Epstein did," the attorneys wrote.

He controversially died by suicide while in custody in Manhattan. In 2021, Maxwell was convicted of sex trafficking and was later sentenced to 20 years in prison. Maxwell recently met with federal prosecutors following backlash over the Trump administration's handling of files related to the Epstein case. Epstein, the billionaire financier, has been linked to high-profile individuals like Donald Trump, Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew. The Second Circuit Court of Appeals previously denied Maxwell's petition to have her conviction overturned, leading to her bid for the Supreme Court to intervene. Read the original article on People

Subway Manager Allegedly Locked 10-Year-Old Girl in a Room and Berated Her After She Walked Across Floor He Just Mopped
The employee was charged with one count of false imprisonment of a child under the age of 13 following the incident at a Florida Subway location A Subway employee was arrested and charged for allegedly locking a young girl in a room after she walked on an area of floor that was freshly mopped. On Monday, July 21, James Anthony Morris Jr. was arrested after allegedly imprisoning a 10-year-old girl at a Jacksonville, Fla., Subway location where he is a manager, Law & Crime reported, citing an arrest report from the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office. Action News Jax also reported about the incident. After arriving with her mother at the restaurant — located on Argyle Forest Boulevard near Old Middleburg Road, per Action News Jax — the girl walked on an area that Morris, 33, had just mopped, according to the report obtained by Law & Crime. Her mother subsequently asked her to apologize, per the report. The Subway manager then allegedly grabbed the girl by the hand and brought her to the back of the restaurant, where he locked her in a room, according to the arrest report. Initially, the girl's mom believed Morris was playing around, but then began to 'panic,' Law & Crime reported. The distressed parent tried to open the door, but Morris allegedly 'pushed' it closed, leading to an altercation, according to the arrest report. The mom then allegedly 'fought' with the Subway manager and called out for help, ultimately getting the door open to free her daughter. Another employee at the sandwich shop responded to the mom's cries for help, according to the arrest report. He later told police that he had allegedly observed Morris pull the girl and 'heard the commotion' that followed. He also called Morris's behavior 'weird,' per the report. Police believe that in total, the girl was in the room for 'upwards of two minutes,' according to Law & Crime. Subway did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment on Saturday, July 26, nor did the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office. The girl told police that when the manager allegedly brought her to the room, he 'gripped her hand even tighter" and told her that her parents are 'trash and terrible people,' according to Law & Crime. The child thought she was being kidnapped and was 'really scared,' the outlet reported. The girl told police that Morris did not make any sexual advances towards her, according to Law & Crime. She also confirmed that she had never seen Morris before, per Action News Jax. Want to keep up with the latest crime coverage?

IDF denies Green Beret claims of indiscriminate shooting, tank fire at Gaza aid sites
IDF rejected claims of violence against civilians at Gaza aid distribution site made by a US veteran and ex-GHF worker in a BBC interview. The IDF denied the claim of former US Green Beret, Lieutenant-Colonel Anthony Aguilar, who stated that he witnessed the military firing at civilians at aid distribution sites in Gaza during an interview with the BBC on Saturday. The IDF has also denied similar claims over the past few months, saying that it does not fire indiscriminately at civilians, nor does it operate within the distribution sites. Over the past few months, dozens of allegations of the deliberate shooting of civilians by the IDF have been raised by international media. 'I witnessed the IDF firing into a crowd of Palestinians,' Aguilar said. 'I witnessed the IDF firing a main gun tank round from the Merkava tank into a crowd of people, destroying a car of civilians that were simply driving away from the site.' When asked for his professional opinion on the situation, he said: 'In my entire career, I have never witnessed the level of brutality and use of indiscriminate and unnecessary force against an unarmed, starving civilian population – until I was in Gaza at the hands of the IDF and US contractors.' The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has called the allegations made by Aguilar 'categorially false' and said he was a 'disgruntled former contractor who was terminated for misconduct,' which he has denied, according to the BBC's report. The IDF's 'continuous learning process' Following incidents in which harm to civilians was reported, thorough examinations were conducted, and 'instructions were issued to forces in the field following the lessons learned,' the IDF said, adding that 'the aforementioned incidents are under review.' In response to Agulair's claims of the IDF firing at civilians for crowd control, the IDF stated that it has not shot at civilians to control gatherings, but rather, has fired at those who 'deviate from the approved routes and pose a threat to the forces' in order to disperse them. In numerous incidents, the IDF has confirmed that it has fired "warning shots" at people who deviate from said routes, but these were outside of the area of the distribution sites. In his most benign assessment of the situation, Auiglar called the site and its operation 'inexperienced, untrained,' and said that the IDF has 'no idea of how to conduct operations of this magnitude.' As part of the IDF's continuous learning process to improve operational conduct and minimize friction between its forces and Gazan civilians at the aid distribution sites, it stated in response that it has added new fences, installed signage, and established additional routes. 'Without question, I witnessed war crimes being committed by the IDF," Augilar concluded.
