Apple River trial: Shocking video of what happened comes to light

United States - An extremely important trial is taking place in the St. Croix County Courthouse that has captured the attention of the entire country. Nicolae Miu faces one count of first-degree intentional homicide and four counts of attempted first-degree intentional homicide for his alleged involvement in a violent Apple River stabbing that claimed the life of 17-year-old Isaac Schuman and injured to four other people.

Video presented during the trial offers a disturbing view of the events that led to the tragedy. Capturing moments before and during the confrontation, it reveals the escalation of the conflict between Miu and two groups of youths at the river.

Court records explain that Miu, using snorkeling equipment, claimed to be searching for a friend's lost phone in the river when the conflict broke out. The video shows Miu approaching the young men while they are recording him, triggering a series of screams and serious accusations against him, with some yelling at them: "He is looking for little girls."

At a critical moment in the video, Miu is seen with a knife in her hand, and the confrontation turns violent. While some young men mock him and push him into the water, Miu emerges holding the knife and begins the attacks. The scene is chaotic, with screams of pain and confusion as chaos breaks out on the river.

Nicolae Miu claimed self-defense during the trial, highlighting with his lawyer the provocation and severe harassment by the young people. They argued that he was just looking for a friend's lost cell phone.

The trial continues, and it is expected that more evidence will be presented to shed light on this dark episode. With nationwide attention focused on this case, the final verdict will be crucial in bringing justice to the victims and their families.
