  • Public records show Karmelo Anthony's parents activated Angelic Obsessions LLC in Texas on April 26, 2025, less than a month after the fatal stabbing that led to his murder case.
  • The filing surfaced as Anthony, 19, asked for a court-appointed lawyer for his appeal, saying he is a "penniless, destitute, and indigent person" days after receiving a 35-year prison sentence.
  • $633,908 was raised through a GiveSendGo campaign launched on Anthony's behalf on April 15, 2025, with organizers saying the money would support legal costs, relocation and other family needs.
  • The records do not show whether the Texas company generated revenue or received any fundraiser money, and Anthony's parents have not been accused of wrongdoing; his father declined comment.
