Nicolae Miu, 54, is accused of stabbing a teenager to death, and injuring four others, while tubing on the Apple River in Wisconsin back in July of 2022. Isaac Schuman, 17, was killed and Rhyley Mattison, 24, suffered severe stab wounds. Miu took the stand on Tuesday where he pleaded his innocence, and felt like he was being attacked by the teenagers, causing him to believe he was defending himself using his pocket knife.

  1. I’ll say one thing I do know for absolute certainty is if he’s had a triple bypass surgery he’s not that much scar tissue, my dad had the same surgery and his scar was from his neck to his groin

  2. Trying to recall every move, turn, fidget is absurd and without a video there would be no reference point . . . ridiculous. Try to recount every turn and movement you make, when you scratch an itch, brush your hair away, put your hand in your pocket . . . really.

  3. OK … Just watched his actual testimony in the court room. He was cooked already from the earlier jail house testimony.
    It seems like his last hope was to take the stand and hope that the jury likes him. Nope, he came off as a liar and he also came off as just a bad person. Generally defense attorneys know that most clients will come off as awful on the stand especially if they are really guilty. I would say that what this does is kill any chance that he has at an appeal.
    When he took the stand he just gave the jury more reason to find him guilty. What a fool. What an awful man! Dude is as bad as OJ.

  4. 5:12:30 Right after this girl is supposed to have been punched by him. Their second lie. Their first one was: Looking for little girls. Yeah right. Maybe: Looking for goggles or probably nothing. Those kids are liars. The video speaks for itself. If this guy is convicted, I will lose belief in everything.

  5. I'd assume his IQ to be quite under the standard deviation, at the same time his background appears to be very hard. He's ruthless and seems to have a lack of any positive emotions toward others.
    It was certainly a case in between self defense and murder, his own account and behavior in court sealed it.

  6. He just keeps lying and lying. If they didnt have the video, he might have actually got away with it. Everyone who was involved was at fault but he brought a knife into a fight where no one else had a weapon. So he is guilty!

  7. I wanna know how he knew the boys had a kitchen knife at one point? That part keeps sticking in my head as well as, who has a pocket knife so sharp that it's still visibly sharp after stabbing 5 ppl?
