Austin Metcalf's Father's Message to Erika Kirk As Pre-Trial Begins Today
"I still to this day I still get death threats and my family still gets death threats. Now this is a very small percentage of a certain subculture demographic that is causing these issues. So in realistically, if you're looking at the big picture of it, they're really a small portion of people, but they're soulless. They have no moral compass. They don't contribute to society in an effective way."
Jeff Metcalf, father of Austin Metcalf who was murdered at age 17, reveals that he and his family continue to receive death threats years after his son's killing. He describes the perpetrators as a small but vocal group lacking moral compass, while warning parents of murdered victims to avoid social media for their mental health. This comes as he offers advice to Erica Hamlett, widow of Charlie Kirk, who faces similar online harassment.
