The arrest of Jake Lang took place at the Dallas airport while the influencer was inside an airplane, according to a representative of the influencer. The rep said that Lang said that if the jury did not find Karmelo Anthony guilty of the murder of Austin Metcalf, Lang “would take care of it himself.”
Lang and other far-right influencers mounted a campaign around the Karmelo Anthony trial. Anthony, 19, was sentenced to 35 years in prison for the April 2025 killing of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a track meet in Frisco.
Anthony pleaded not guilty, with his lawyer, Mike Howard, arguing that the 19-year-old acted in self-defense. The judge ruled against Anthony, calling the murder a “senseless” act.
