Karmelo didn't cry when the jury heard the 911 call after Austin Metcalf was stabbed.

He didn't cry when Austin's twin brother, Hunter, could be heard screaming in anguish and praying his brother wouldn't die.

He didn't cry when the jury was shown Austin's autopsy photos.

He didn't cry when they saw the blood-soaked shirt used in a desperate attempt to save Austin's life.

But he cried when he was found guilty.

And he cried again when he was sentenced to 35 years.

The only tears the jury saw were for his own fate, not for the life that was taken.

Austin Metcalf was robbed of his high school graduation, he will never get another birthday, another chance to live the life that was stolen from him.

Thirty-five years may be justice under the law, but for many, it doesn't feel like enough.

I'm surprised he can even reason about his future in a gated all-expenses-paid community.

May be just an act of defiance like when a toddler doesn't get that toy it wants.
