About
Frisco, TX native who was indicted on first-degree murder charges after the fatal stabbing of fellow student Austin Metcalf on April 2, 2025, which occurred at a district track meet at a school that neither of them attended. He made claims that the act was in self-defense, allegedly after being touched by Metcalf during an argument that began under a tent on the field.
Before Fame
He attended Frisco Centennial High School, where he was the captain of both the football and the track teams and was a National Honor Society student. He earned part-time employment at Foot Locker and H-E-B before he and his family moved to North Texas in 2021.
Trivia
His bond was originally set at $1 million before it was reduced to only $250,000 by a judge due to his previously clean record. He was then granted house arrest with GPS monitoring, during which he was required to wear an ankle bracelet and remain under supervision.
Family Life
He and his younger three siblings were raised in a single-parent household.

His case drew commentary from Patrick Bet-David, who spoke about it on Valuetainment's YouTube channel in June 2025.
