t was a heavy Texas morning in Frisco when the silence finally broke. A foreclosure notice was taped to the door of the Anthony family’s mansion—$30 million in debt, unpaid for months. Once a symbol of success and resilience, the home had become the center of a shocking financial collapse.
The family’s rise began with sympathy, after their son Carmelo Anthony was tied to a murder case and a GoFundMe for legal fees went viral. Millions poured in, and the mansion was flaunted online as a sign of strength. But court records later showed missed mortgage payments, mounting penalties, and donation money drained on luxury cars, trips, and unfinished renovations. As one contractor put it, “They thought they were untouchable—until the money stopped.”
