The unbelievable record of Dominique Alexander the man who is representing Karmelo Anthony the kid that stabbed to death Austin Metcalf at a high school track meet! Yes, Dominique Alexander, who is representing Karmelo Anthony, has a documented criminal history that includes a felony conviction for causing serious bodily injury to a child. In 2009, Alexander was arrested for injuring his girlfriend’s 2-year-old son, causing a subdural hemorrhage and retinal hemorrhages consistent with abusive head trauma. He confessed to shaking and striking the child, pleaded guilty in 2011, and was initially sentenced to 10 years of deferred adjudication. In 2016, he was sentenced to five years in prison for multiple probation violations but served only eight days due to a judge counting his probation time as time served. Regarding his involvement in protests, Alexander, as the president of the Next Generation Action Network (NGAN), organized and participated in Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests in Dallas, particularly following high-profile police shootings in 2016, such as those of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile. While there is no specific evidence confirming he marched explicitly for George Floyd, his leadership in Dallas BLM protests during 2020, including calls to defund the police, aligns with the broader movement sparked by Floyd’s murder. Alexander’s criminal past, including the child injury case, has been widely discussed in connection to his activism and his current role advocating for Karmelo Anthony, a 17-year-old charged with murder in the stabbing of Austin Metcalf. Critics have highlighted his history of violence, which also includes a 2019 arrest for domestic violence (charges later dropped) and other convictions for theft, forgery, and evading arrest. • FELONY INJURY TO A CHILD (2009) • FORGING A CHECK (POST-2009) • LEADING POLICE ON A HIGH-SPEED CHASE (POST-2009) • STEALING A CAR (POST-2009) • FALSELY CLAIMING A CAR WAS STOLEN (POST-2009) • OFFENSIVE PHYSICAL CONTACT (2015) • PROBATION VIOLATIONS (2016) • FELONY THEFT OF PROPERTY $2,500-$30,000 (2016) • FELONY ASSAULT CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY INJURY (2019) • MISDEMEANOR ASSAULT (2019) • CONTINUOUS VIOLENCE AGAINST THE FAMILY (2019) • THEFT • MAKING A FALSE REPORT • EVADING ARREST
