‘Again, Racism’: Jasmine Crockett Minimizes Karmelo Anthony Plunging Knife Into Austin Metcalf’s Heart
'What it is to live as a black person.'
The Sudanese asylum-seeker arrested for the horrific attempted beheading that took place in Northern Ireland on Monday night appeared in court on Wednesday, where he declined to enter a plea.
In addition to being identified, the African has been slapped with additional criminal charges after the brutal attack he is accused of committing prompted a fiery night of rioting in Belfast as well as demands for transparency and a withdrawal from the EU Migration Pact from rightist lawmakers.
'We will be going after them.'
Now that the liberal establishment has pivoted from feigning horror over the attempted beheading to expressing outrage over the backlash, police are threatening to arrest online influencers who raised the alarm about the incident.
A black male was caught on camera sitting atop a bloodied white male in the middle of a north Belfast street, shouting something in a foreign tongue, then carving with a knife into the victim's face and neck.
The attack was interrupted by a Good Samaritan armed with a wooden hurl stick who gave the attacker a good thwacking. Another two men rushed in to help — one attempting to pull the victim to safety and the other giving a few well-placed kicks to the aggressor's head.
The attacker, who was initially identified by a police as Somali but later confirmed to be a Sudanese national, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.

The victim, who has been identified as Stephen Ogilvie and a British citizen, was taken to the hospital in serious condition with grievous injuries to his face, neck, and back.
Gavin Robinson, a member of the British Parliament for East Belfast, stated on Tuesday that the Sudanese suspect was living in the U.K. under a five-year visa.
Police subsequently confirmed that the suspect, 30-year-old Hadi Alodid, entered Northern Ireland from the Republic of Ireland in 2023, applied for asylum, and was granted leave to remain in the country until 2028.
The Telegraph reported that the suspect had "used a loophole" in the British asylum system — traveling from Sudan to Paris and then to Dublin, before taking a bus to Belfast and then claiming asylum.
In addition to the original charge of attempted murder, Alodid has been charged with possessing a knife in a public space and threatening to kill a woman who works as a radiographer for the National Health Service.
Alodid appeared at Laganside magistrate's court on Wednesday, where he communicated via an Arabic interpreter. The stabbing suspect — who allegedly left Ogilvie with no left eye, a damaged right eye, and deep cuts on his face and back — refused legal representation and declined to respond to the charges.
Alodid was denied bail at the urging of the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
Police told the court that the African's release posed a threat of further offenses and a flight risk and could lead to "significant public disorder," reported the BBC.
The suspect's next court date is July 8.
The PSNI implored the general public on Tuesday not to share footage of the horrific attack, but the British public evidently had other ideas.
To the great chagrin not only of police but of those leftist lawmakers who expressed concerns over the inevitable political fallout, the video — yet another damning reminder of the isles' disastrous immigration policies and failed dogma of multiculturalism — went viral with the help of remigration activist Tommy Robinson and others.
Belfast was subsequently rocked by protests and, on Tuesday evening, riots in which homes, cars, and a bus were torched.
Some of the hundreds of black-clad young men who roamed the streets of the capital city on Tuesday reportedly shouted, "Foreigners out!" and pelted asylum-seeker housing with rocks.
'F**k 'em.'
Assistant Chief Constable Ryan Henderson of the PSNI said in a statement, "Sporadic pockets of disorder have broken out in a number of locations across Northern Ireland this evening, including incidents in which a number of vehicles have been set on fire."
Prime Minister Keir Starmer and various other lawmakers condemned the riots — in many cases more forcefully than they condemned the attempted beheading.
"The scenes in Belfast last night were shocking and completely unacceptable," Starmer stated on Wednesday morning. "There is no justification for the violence and disorder that we saw threatening our communities, nor for those who encouraged it, online or elsewhere. It is clear that people were targeted last night because of their background and I will not tolerate it."
Police have arrested several alleged rioters and are threatening to arrest online influencers over their provocative commentary regarding the attempted beheading.
"It’s very easy, these days especially, to look online and be persuaded, by people who know nothing about Northern Ireland, know nothing about the communities in Northern Ireland, know nothing about the history of Northern Ireland, to take actions that they otherwise would not take," said PSNI Chief Constable Jon Boutcher. "Stop looking at this nonsense. Stop listening to these idiots. We will be going after them for the incitement that they’ve been doing."
"I'm not talking about individuals in this press conference, but people will know who were online last night and inciting this behavior. They will know what they were doing. We will be going after them," added Boutcher.
Despite this latest threat of a crackdown over online speech, Elon Musk, Tommy Robinson, and Restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe have not rounded their critiques or softened their rhetoric.
Robinson, for instance, wrote, "Stop importing rapists, murderers, and sex pests from savage third world countries who put young girls [sic] lives at risk. Once you have advocated for that, and the removal of unwanted illegal migrants from communities who never asked for or wanted them, then you can take the high road. Until then, keep your mouth shut."
Lowe wrote early Wednesday, "Millions must go," and "the Belfast victim has lost his left eye and has severe damage to his right eye. Hacked at the neck, with his eyes gouged. Men who inflict this brutal evil on others do not deserve to live."
Musk shared a post rejecting the calls for calm, then tweeted, "F**k 'em."

The attacker stabbed Nowak several times, filmed his desperate attempt to flee, and loomed over him as his chest cavity filled with blood. Adding grievous insult to injury, Digwa, joined by members of his family at the scene, falsely told police that his bleeding and crumpled victim was the real aggressor — that Nowak was a racist who attacked him, called him a "Paki," and knocked off his turban.
'A deep line needs to be drawn in the sand.'
Digwa was convicted of murder last week and sentenced on Monday to a minimum of 21 years in prison.
While Digwa will be going away, the scandal surrounding Nowak's death isn't — certainly not after the release of damning body camera footage showing how poorly police treated the teen in his final minutes.
Hundreds of protesters swarmed Southampton Central Police Station on Tuesday carrying English flags and signs that said, "All lives matter," and demanding justice for Nowak, whom police arrested for assault, handcuffed, and treated as a criminal, all on the basis of Digwa's lies.
In addition to reciting the Lord's Prayer, denouncing the police involved in Nowak's arrest, and chanting "Christ is king," some protesters yelled, "I can't breathe" — a phrase the young man apparently said to police nine times before losing consciousness, footage revealed.

Remigration activist Tommy Robinson stressed to his fellow protesters that the public does not want the officers involved to resign "with fully bloody pensions" but to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
A spokesman for the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary, which oversees Southampton, confirmed to Blaze News that three of the officers who responded to the scene of Nowak's murder in December are still serving but that one officer has resigned.
The spokesman noted further that the Independent Office for Police Conduct, which is investigating the incident, is treating the officers as witnesses, meaning they are "not subject to any restrictions."
The police department complained on social media Tuesday about "the significant spread of misinformation online" and has asked that "people avoid harmful speculation online" while the IOPC investigation is under way.
While Britons took to the streets to signal their displeasure, lawmakers and other officials — confronted with the bloody results of years of woke policies — have roundly condemned the murder and character assassination of Nowak.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer, for instance, called the body camera footage "harrowing" and noted that "it's absolutely right that the IOPC is looking at this."
Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch blasted Britain's "race-based laws" and "two-tiered policing."
"The fear of being called racist was greater than dealing with Henry Nowak’s murder," said Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, who demanded on Monday that England's attorney general ensure that Digwa can never walk free again. "We should respond to this with pure cold rage."
"Enough is enough — a deep line needs to be drawn in the sand. Talk is weak. Britain needs to say no more, and mean it," wrote Rupert Lowe, the leader of Restore Britain.
In her lengthy response to the scandal, British Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood made sure to reassure the public that "everyone in this country is equal before the law," that there can be no justification for vigilante justice, and that the Labour regime "is committed to halving knife crime in this decade."

Liberals in the United Kingdom have worked feverishly in recent years to paint white Britons uniquely as history's villains, undermine their unique claims to the isles, and erase them from British history.
What's more, police and some in the justice system have shown that they are willing to hold whites — white men in particular — to a different standard than virtually every other group.
The British public has now been confronted with incontrovertible evidence of this campaign's influence and impact in the case of Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old Englishman who died at the feet of maligning and disbelieving police.
'Henry told officers that he could not breathe nine times.'
Walking home from a night out with his soccer team on Dec. 3, Nowak encountered a 23-year-old Sikh named Vickrum Digwa, who, on account of a religious exemption to the general ban on carrying knives in Britain, was armed.
In an unprovoked attack, Digwa stabbed the University of Southampton finance student repeatedly with an eight-inch blade — a blade that Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, later hid in an effort to aid her killer kin.
Digwa and his family members also proceeded to falsely tell police not only that Nowak was the real aggressor — a supposed racist who had attacked Digwa and knocked off his turban — but that Nowak hadn't been stabbed and was just exaggerating about his injuries.
Even as Nowak lay dying, officers from the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary reflexively entertained the Digwa family's lies and handcuffed the white teen. Nowak's handcuffs were removed only after the "severity of his condition was becoming clear," police claimed.
After much public clamor, the damning police body camera footage of Nowak's arrest was finally released on Monday, showing the nightmarish scene, including:
William Mousley, the Southampton judge who oversaw the murder trial, noted in his sentencing remarks on Monday that after stabbing his "defenseless" victim, Digwa — accompanied by his brother, Gurpreet — abused the teen and made "films of Henry suffering" and trying to escape before the arrival of police.
"You lied to him that you had been attacked, picking up on his question about whether it had been accompanied by racism by falsely claiming that Henry had called you a 'Paki,'" said Mousley. "I am sure that Henry had said nothing racist."
Mousley sentenced Digwa to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 20 years and 190 days before any consideration can be given to possible parole.
According to the BBC, the attorney general's office is reconsidering the prison sentence after being deluged by requests to review it under the unduly lenient sentence scheme.
Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, is set to be sentenced for attempting to help her son cover up his crime. Digwa's father, Moga Singh, and his brother, Gurpreet Digwa, have reportedly been slapped with multiple weapons charges and are expected to appear in court on Tuesday.
After Digwa's sentencing, Mark Nowak, Henry's father, publicly addressed his dead son's egregious treatment by the Southampton police as evidenced in the video footage.
"When police arrived, Henry was lying on the floor, barely able to sit up and plainly in severe medical distress," said the bereaved father. "With his final words, he told officers that he could not breathe. He told them he had been stabbed. In fact, Henry told officers that he could not breathe nine times. He told them he had been stabbed four times."
"The response from one officer was 'I don't think you have, mate,'" continued Mark Nowak. "The police have said they were misled by the murderer and that the scene when they arrived was complex. Unfortunately, it seems to us the truth is much simpler."
Mark Nowak emphasized that police chose not to believe his son or the member of the public who called and reported someone claiming to have been stabbed. Instead, they dragged his bloody son across the gravel, wrenched his hands behind his back, handcuffed him, formally arrested him for assault, and read him his rights.
"Henry did not die with dignity. He did not die with the care he deserved. He lost consciousness before anyone believed him," said Mark Nowak.
'Look back in anger.'
While assigning to Digwa all blame for his son's death, Mark Nowak noted that his son should not have died in police custody and that "the way he was treated was inhumane and degrading."
The father noted further that, unlike his son, the Sikh murderer was curiously "afforded decency. He was believed. He was not handcuffed when arrested. He was not handcuffed when transported to the police station. As far as we understand, he was never handcuffed at all."
"The contrast is unbearable," said Mark Nowak.
Others around the U.K. and around the globe have reacted similarly to the police video.
Nigel Farage, the leader of the Reform UK Party, said, "This is the most shocking footage of discrimination that you will ever see. A white boy being handcuffed by police officers more concerned by an accusation of racism than an act of murder. This must be a turning point. White lives matter too."
Whereas Prime Minister Keir Starmer offered a weak response coupled with a condemnation of "knife crime," British Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe, formerly of the Reform UK Party and now the leader of Restore Britain, offered a forceful series of condemnations and demanded "prosecutions for what happened to Henry Nowak."
'Now this is the moment for real f**king change.'
"Young white British men are bleeding to death in the street as a direct result of our racist establishment. I will never forget, and I will never forgive," Lowe said on Tuesday.
Lowe vowed to "look back in anger" and suggested that were his party in power, Digwa would be put to death, "the police officers on the scene who allowed Henry to die [would] face criminal charges for gross negligence manslaughter," and "Digwa's foreign family [would] be deported."
"Sara Sharif. The Nottingham killer. The Manchester bomber. The grooming gangs. Now Henry Nowak," wrote Conservative Party MP Claire Coutinho, the shadow minister for equalities. "We have to unpick the mentality across our public services that says accusations of racism are more important than protecting the public from harm."
"If we stay the hand of those who are meant to protect the public, if we tie them up in knots with unconscious bias training and Islamophobia definitions, then we are making their jobs even more impossible and we can see from case after case that we are failing to protect the public from serious harm," added Coutinho.
Conservative Party leader Kemi Badnoch similarly criticized the "training that the police have been given" and the "race action plans" implemented in the wake of the Black Lives Matter mania earlier this decade.
"Now this is the moment for real f**king change, not George Floyd, a dead crackhead in America," said activist Tommy Robinson.
The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary did not respond to Blaze News' request for comment.
Robert France, the temporary deputy chief constable, apologized on Thursday for the police's grievous mistreatment of Nowak, stating, "I am sorry that in the moments before he lost consciousness, [Nowak] had been handcuffed and arrested."

A 23-year-old Sikh man is on trial in the United Kingdom for the December murder of an 18-year-old Englishman.
Vickrum Digwa is accused of fatally slashing and stabbing first-year Southampton University student Henry Nowak of Essex. Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, is also on trial for conspiring with her son after the fact by allegedly removing the murder weapon from the scene of the attack.
Already in the trial, prosecutors have furnished members of the jury with plenty of insights into Nowak's death — alleging, for example, that:
One of the more troubling allegations actually concerns the conduct of the British police who first arrived on the scene.
Around 11:30 p.m. on Dec. 3, 2025, police were called to the scene of an altercation taking place on Portswood's Belmont Road.
Digwa presented himself to the first officers on the scene as the victim, telling them that he was "racially abused and attacked by a drunken man," prosecutor Nicholas Lobbenberg told jurors Thursday.
"He didn't seek help for the man he had injured with his sizeable knife; instead he accused him of being a racist and being drunk," added Lobbenberg, reported the Daily Mail.

According to the prosecutor, police handcuffed Nowak while he was dying from four stab wounds including two wounds to the back of his legs and one in the lung. Only when the pierced and bleeding Briton collapsed did police reportedly start administering first aid.
Digwa's lawyer, Jeremy Wainwright, claimed that the alleged murderer was carrying a dagger "for religious purposes" and had acted in the "heat of the moment" in self-defense — a statement that jurors might have difficulty believing on account of the wounds on the back of the victim's legs.
'His story will not be buried.'
Wainwright also strongly insinuated that his client was responding to a "racially motivated attack" by the dead and unarmed Englishman.
"You will be shocked and upset when you see the state of Henry Nowak and when you hear what's shouted at what is tragically a dying man," said Wainwright. "But did Digwa and his brother at the time realize they were dealing with a dying man, or was their anger generated by someone who was drunk, who had racially attacked them, and they weren't aware of the extent of those injuries?"
In light of the revelations about the dying victim's treatment by Hampshire Police, Turning Point UK and other critics have called for the termination of the officers responsible and for the department to "apologize for their disgraceful behavior believing false allegations of racism, over a man who had been violently stabbed."
Hampshire Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.
The victim posthumously maligned by the suspect and his attorney was, according to the Villarrealgorithm CF and Southampton University Football Club, "the kind of lad who, when he walked into a room, instantly lifted the mood. Henry had a big heart and an even bigger personality, and he will be incredibly missed by everyone."
Nowak's mother noted in the wake of his death, "Our lives are irreparably changed. Our hearts are broken beyond repair. But his name will not fade. His story will not be buried."
On July 11, Nowak's family and friends will join others at Aveley Football Club for a celebrity charity soccer match in honor of the young man and his memory.
