The next witness was Joshua Redman, a coach with liberty high school.
Joshua Redman is an army veteran. He was deployed three times, blown up three times. He said that he has led men and lost men. He is 6 foot four and 240 pounds.
On April 2, he was the throwing coach. He said that liberty high school had two tents. One for the boys and one for the girls. He said the weather was only a light drizzle of rain. It was not raining heavy.
He stated that he was close to Memorial high school tent. He did not hear anything until there was a burst of energy. He said kids were running and people were screaming. He heard them running on the aluminum bleachers.
He stated that he then saw Austin at the bottom of the bleachers with his back up against the fence. He said Austin then fell to the ground. Hunter ran to him and held him and was screaming that he had been stabbed.
He stated that he then took off his coat and put pressure on the wound. He had to shove Hunter to the side because Hunter was trying to hold Austin tightly. Hunter was hysterical. He stated that based on the location of the wound and the amount of blood pouring into Austin‘s abdomen, he could tell that it was not good.
He then stated that he recognized agonal breathing which he knew meant that Austin was already passing. He stated that before EMS arrived he knew that Austin was already gone. But he did not state this because he wanted all life-saving measures to be taken regardless.
After EMS arrived, he then went to the lockers to wash the blood off of his hands. He left the jacket on the ground.
Then they played the 911 tape
This tape was absolutely devastating for everyone in the room
You could hear everyone screaming in the background. You could hear the army veteran working on Austin. You can hear the coach screaming “stay with me, Austin! Stay with me!”
The individual who called 911 said that Austin was breathing, but it was just the agonal breathing as recognized by the coach. Which meant that Austin was already gone.
In the background of the 911 call, you can hear Hunter crying and screaming. You could hear him saying “PLEASE GOD! Please!! Please GOD!”
The called then gave 911 the description of Karmelo. And stated that he was just some kid from another school.
Photos were then shown to the jury of Austin. This photo was not placed on the screen out of respect for the Metcalf family.
A picture was then shown of the jacket that was used to attempt to stop the bleeding. The inside of it was covered in blood.
The coach was cross-examined. It was reiterated that he did not hear any yelling before the incident.
This concludes the end of day four.
