āš–ļø Karmelo Anthony Guilty Verdict: A System That Never Gave Him a Chance | Life Points with Ronda

Season 4
28m | Jun 10, 2026

šŸ‘ØšŸæā€āš–ļø A jury found Karmelo Anthony guilty of murder. He is 19 years old. He is Black. He was tried in Collin County, Texas.

šŸ‘„ The jury? 12 people. Plus 6 alternates. Not a single Black person.

āš–ļø The judge? Judge John Roach Jr. — personal friends with the victim's father.

šŸ‘Øā€šŸ’¼ The prosecutor? Bill Wirskye — also personal friends with the victim's father.

āŒ Neither recused themselves. Neither stepped aside.

šŸŽ™ļø Host Ronda — an Iyanifa (Ifa priestess) and podcaster — is furious. Not just at the verdict. At the system that made this verdict inevitable.

šŸ—£ļø In this powerful episode of Life Points with Ronda, you'll hear:

  • Why an all-white jury can never be a "jury of your peers" for a Black teenager
  • The shocking conflict of interest that should have disqualified both the judge and prosecutor
  • The red flags that should have stopped this conviction
  • A direct message to Karmelo Anthony's family — Ronda wants to help
  • A wake-up call for every Black and brown family in America
  • A deeper conversation about colonial courts, indigenous sovereignty, and why the system was never built for us

🚨 This is not just about Karmelo Anthony. This is about every Black and brown child who will ever stand in a courtroom.

šŸ–¤ If you have a son, a nephew, a grandson, a godson — you need to hear this.
