Came to the comments to see if I’m the only one who thinks these lawyers are doing a horrible job. Thank you for the validation.
Sadly yes, I hope they win though as miu is a horrible person.
Me too!!!
The prosecutor is not good because he probably knows the guy is not guilty. The defense is good. It’s up to the jury who, judging at least half the public, is too untrustworthy to rule fairly.
AGGREED i second you dear 👍🏽👍🏽
Clearly, the Judge is acting as a ref and this ties the attorney's hands. Under this judge I think the attorneys are doing the best any attorney could.
So...her husband walked over there twice...then his friends went to get him....and he came back with them....chaos is going on in that group her husband just left, a person is getting CPR, the police are there, but she asked no questions and nobody talked about it? They just traveled on their tubes on down the river while she looked at the sky and trees? And today she has amnesia... This woman is full of shite.
Right! Then she says a phone then later says he was looking for jewelry which is it
Right! & they didn’t talk about him getting hit? She just acted like it was a normal day? The 2 men that went over there didn’t notice he was slicing kids open with his knife?
Hateful acting person and mad at the world. They must have made a good pair
She knows her husband is a drunk A hole .. and now hes a murderer
Just like all the kids
This woman is insufferable. Saw "commotion" and a person receiving cpr after an altercation with your husband and you just kept tubing down the river? What the actual fuck is wrong with people
What's wrong with people is most people have average intellect, which is low. These kinds of people are terrible at comprehending sentences and reading, especially when it comes to something very serious. A tell tale sign of these types of people, is the fact that they just follow along with society and do, or say trendy shit like "actual fuck', regardless of how stupid it makes them sound.
People in Minnesota are pretty stoic. Its not like the urban jungle you see in the city. Those are transplants.
Matthew 24:12
The commotion she was talking about was that stupid teen goon crowd attacking her husband! They were still married that day!
@@elizabethspence4033People in Minnesota are plastered 24/7 I believe her when she says she doesn't remember.
Is sad how 30 seconds can change a lot of peoples lifes😢
A split second does it sometimes. Be careful out there!

A crazy day on the river..
Did you see the pictures and such?
This isn't his first rodeo IMHO and we're all allowed those.
I feel for the teenagers their families
@@me-hp7vhWhat?
I think we all can agree that not everyone had "just 2 beers".
I'm thinking she must be passed out 😅 she doesn't know much
Thank you! Seems the influence of alcohol on the participants in this case has been overlooked. How reliable are any of them when they can't remember or, they recall events differently than video evidence shows?
2 beers is what literally everyone says when they get caught drunk driving. It's the standard lie
They all look like they are drunk
@@W0nkaaaAnd they say, I live just right over there.
This prosecutor is a terrible interviewer.
Dude. I’m glad I’m not the only one that thought this.
It’s a clear self-defense case. They have very little to grasp at.
@@rockstarofredondoClear self defense? When the man consciously brought a knife into a conflict?
@@rockstarofredondo rhe dude assaulted a woman and grabbed a highschoolers leg before the knife came out. Then he started self defensively stabbing?
@@jamilahzahirahhadidyep. There is nothing about having a knife that inherently makes it wrong. He is allowed to use a knife to defend himself.
WHERE do these lawyers get their licenses from? I’m embarrassed for them. Inarticulate, asking the dumbest questions that are not either relevant or relevant at the time of questioning as it relates to their line of questioning.
The prosecutor sounds like Chris Farley in that famous SNL skit with Paul McCartney. “Do you remember when you were with the Beatles?” “That was awesome”.
She is the type of wife that had "no idea" her husband was abusing all their kids.
💯💯💯
EXACTLY
Can't stand this type of person. Doesn't come across as very bright.
They don't have kids!
Oh totally!
If this guy can be a prosecutor, then I can be a prosecutor.
😊
Truth. Go to school.
Send his office your résumé showing the date you passed the MN bar exam and your (ABA accredited) law school transcript...go for it!
@alexadao8852 What are you smoking?
I mean everyone is saying that but how do you figure he should be? This is a high stakes case and he’s got to be extremely careful in his questioning etc as to not get the case tossed. Sure he might be inexperienced and I’m not legal expert but I’m confused on what makes him so bad?
Her husband gets hit and falls into the water and she just stops watching 😂 ok lady lmao
Maybe her view was blocked by other people milling about.
Now she is no where to be seen?
Would you tell on your spouse?
If she really did stop watching it must be because she's use to her husband's behavior. Smh
@@charleyjaxx2493 He testified, more than once, that he had promised his wife that 'this time' down the river would be 'different' -- or she wouldn't go with them. I can only imagine that this isn't the first time he acted up.
Her husband walked away holding a knife dripping with blood & blood on his hand but she saw no blood. That’s weird because you can clearly watch him walk away holding a bloody knife on camera but none of them noticed bloody or the fact he stabbed all of those kids is astonishing.
Maybe he used water from the river to wash the blood off.
Yes
If only there was a source nearby to clean my hand, quickly
Maybe they were watching Paw Patrol?..seems just a plausible at this point based on the witness demeanor and the prosecutors over the top ability to not ask real questions.
Those kids got what they asked for. They were messing with him, pushing him, calling him a predator and he should get off for self defense
Uhm he is in the water and ditched the knife but the fact is 7 drunk 17 year dumbass brats called on 4 drunk and stoned adults to have them help attack this senior citizen it’s all on video he was shoved and punched anyone would fear for their life in that situation especially when they had quadruple bypass surgery a year prior They definitely need to put a stop to underage drinking on that river
Attorney: so you are married to NICK?
WIFE: I think so..... I wasn't paying attention
😂😂
I missed that part! 😂😂
😂😅 First thing I thought was a probably married so that way. He could get citizenship. Hes probably from Argentina. For something like that, I'm very curious to know.
😅😂

lawyers asking the absolute dumbest questions that arent helping him at all what a joke
This poor man, had nobody to help him. The wife was so oblivious and the "friends" stood back and didn't intervened. Ugh
They knew who he was and wanted nothing to do with him. That is just my opinion of course but He himself testified that he had had to promise his wife that nothing was going to happen that day or she would not go on the trip with them. He eluded, several times, to things 'happening' on previous tubing trips. When asked about HIS drinking history, she said that he has two or three beers each day after work. I'd call having two or three beers after work each day the sign of an alcoholic. A beer or two maybe one day/week, or a drink before dinner? Still stretching things. I think he is a nasty drunk and people know it and happily let him wander off by himself.
@@marymac789 what utter rubbish!!! You don't know this man. Hope you never are surrounded by a group of drunk and stoned idiots. Self defence will not be your call.
Aww poor murderer
Nothing ever comes good from alcohol on the river.
Or anywhere really
I've never had a problem over the 100's of times I went down the river with beers.
Alcohol period
Yet, somehow, it's still legal.
are you kidding me ? some of the greatest memories of my life.
If everybody had minded their own business, none of this would have happened.
And been sober.
How were they suppose to mind their own business if hes grabbed their tube to prevent them leaving AND after him approaching them twice. People showed up to help the minors asking for help, but yeah everyone mind your own business. >.>
@@winterbear6290The ...Zers got what they asked for. Everyone gets what the asked for🤷🏻
by everybody, you mean Mui? He's the only person that STARTED a fight and refused to walk away.
@@winterbear6290 I don't justify anything he did, but this would not have happened if they had not said all kinds of awful things to him. They instigated it, and I hope that justice is served either way. I don't know what the right answer is, but the jury has a tough case on their end. I think at the end of the day he is going to get acquitted for self-defense
Wow a young man has died, she seems uninterested.
This prosecutor is torture to listen to. I’m so confused!
Unfortunately the prosecutor is either inexperienced, unprepared, or just incompetent. He stumbled through this inquiry as if he just got the case a few minutes before trial.

To me, it sounds like he is under the influence of something.
Totally agree….its bad
With this prosecutor this guy will end up getting 10 years running concurrent with the other charges…..he will probably end up serving maybe 5 years of that and then get off more for good behavior…..sad
@@reborika the case is a bad case he wont be found guilty
My 5 y.o grandson would ask more pertinent questions then the prosecutor.. these lawyers are literal jokes
Agree
Aha 😅😢😈😡
Use your brains God gave you
I think the prosecution was limited in what questions they could ask her. They are not allowed to ask leading questions. Obviously this witness, the defendant's wife was not going to say anything to incriminate him but the prosecution clearly hoped they would catch her up by finding differences in what she told police at the scene and what she might say on the stand.
Law school is becoming easier and easier to get into each year unfortunately.
This has nothing to do with what happened. What a waste of time. The video shows it all
This poor guy got screwed I can’t believe his lawyer had him take the stand that cost this guy his freedom he has never been in trouble and runs across 7 underage drunk boys 17 years old looking to mess with someone just to entertain their drunk stoned minds
@@JohnSmith-bw9wuI saw Nick's s testimony. It was the first episode I saw in the case, and immediately saw that these drunk punks were harassing him, then that stupid woman got involved, and I sure Nick was scared for his life by that time. Of course the most tragic thing is that a young guy lost his life. The second most tragic thing will be if Nick is condemned to prison and these punks get away with their idiocy that led to all this.
@@stompthedragon4010 two fools trying to volley a guilty verdict. You must be two men above the age of 45 who can't handle the truth because it is a mirror in some way. YUK!
@@JohnSmith-bw9wu There were not 7 of the boys in the group that he was harrassing. Only one from that group was involved in anything after he punched Maddison in the face and that is the deceased boy, Isaac. The others he stabbed were with the second group of young adults - the carlson group, who came to see what was happening and try to put a stop to it. He actually walked up to each and every one of those victims and stabbed them. They didn't walk up to him. Defense tried to make it look like the young boys had more to do with this than they did.
@@marymac789breh u didint watch the video at all
(Zoë’s Mum) so one minute Mrs Miu said she heard NOTHING and next minute she told police she heard screaming😩🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️The woman is so dumb, doesn’t seem to be aware of anything- maybe she’s full of Valium because she sure seems like it
Or xanax
Do you think she was coached on her testimony?
She is probably on Zanex or Valium after watching her senior citizen husband being attacked by 7 drunk 17 year old punks and 4 drunk and stoned adults and instead of arresting the actual guilty people they arrested her husband that has never been in trouble his whole entire life
@@shonna4545exactly
The ex-wife is either void of empathy, compassion, and feelings, or she has been traumatized to the degree that nothing fazes her, or she's in complete denial for unknown reasons.
She look mean miserable an bitter
D: All of the above.
She “was” married to this guy for who knows how long. I can imagine her doing what is told or she has more in common with her husband than I think
Her lack of expression reminds me of the tactic called grey rocking as a way to deal with narcissism..... she's good at it....imo😮
She was put I'm a bad situation because of all those brats.. I'd be upset still ..but she seems like a normal nice person to me.
Why is she even on the stand? What is the point of her? Does the prosecution understand they need to have an actual plan here?
Sadly it doesn’t look that way. This was brutal to watch. 😑
To prove that this man was not in fear for his life and was totally calm after just punching, stabbing, and killing people! 🤔🤦🏼♀️
Obviously not, pathetic
Worder why she a ex now
@@Renee-wy1poUm, he’s a psychopath and killed someone perhaps!?
The wife was so disrespectful. The eye rolls and look of shear boredom on her face. Disgusting. Also, she’s saying that her husband had just been involved in a violent attack and she didn’t even notice, they hung around, knowing someone was getting CPR, yet never went over to offer help???! If I saw multiple people injured I would go and see I could be any help. Then they just left while all that was going on???!! BS.
You see her??? Looks like a bunch of morons to me !! Group of green cards 😂
After you stabbed someone you would go help them 😂😂 WTF 😂😂😂😂😂
She knows her husband didn't deserve to be attacked by all those people and doesn't want to throw him under the bus
@@LM-fx4de Which is a minor inconvenience compared to someone getting stabbed. Bullies are annoying but murderers tend to be locked up. There is no excuse for the guy stabbing people, period. Judges rarely react to arguments like yours since it undermines everything the court stands for.
@@Burtlockerdo you know what would’ve happened to the defendant if he hadn’t had a knife?? NO, YOU DON’T!! They were young drunk THUGS hell bent on causing trouble for that old man! He did what he had to do!! They should’ve NEVER PUT THEIR HAMDS ON HIM!
Well she is cheery isn't she. Not. Combative, defensive, surly. All in all thoroughly unpleasant.
This woman acts like she is being greatly inconvenienced being questioned. WTF
Well she's probably missing Wheel of Fortune!!!
Wtf would want to be in this situation? Smh
She definitely looks miserable
She is probably disgusted that this happened, don't ya think?
Yes 💯😡
These lawyers are horrible… but this witness, wow! Was she even there mentally? If you saw your husband being beaten, sent other guys over to help… wouldn’t you run to him and ask “ are you ok? What happened?” He had blood all over his hand in the video, she didn’t notice that? But she noticed someone getting CPR a mile down?!?!
They know husband is a troublemaker
She filed for divorce a few weeks ago.
She doesn’t give a damn
Obviously he wasn't really getting beaten. She seems like a chronic domestic violence sufferer.
They all know miu is a lunatic. He probably told stories of his military duties in Romania. They all knew he was crazy. And let's not kid ourselves. Miu is not some well educated engineer. He doesn't work for an engineering firm. He's a mechanical engineer at a warehouse type company. Meaning he's a glorified janitor/handyman nothing wrong with it. But they try to present him as if he did 5 years in college to become an actual engineer.
Listening to these lawyers makes me think i can be a lawyer . Im amazed by their incompatence
I don't think they can spell either 😂
I guarantee you would not pass the bar or even get accepted to law school.i agree they are not doing a good job but don't use it as an opportunity to make this about YOU.
@@yigalordbanette8044 Some of these woke states like Washington don't even require a Bar Exam....The more you know. And you don't.
Not with spelling like that you wouldn’t! 😂
@@chelleyd4020 Nobody lost their life over spelling and grammar. But those that it concerns, need to get one.
You must listen to all the testimony to understand why the defendant’s ex-wife is coming off this way. The defendant was upset that no one from his group came to his assistance when he motioned for them. I’m sure she feels guilty for not realizing what was happening sooner. People have a way of processing their emotions. Her way is to put up her guard or seem without emotion. This is a way for people to deal with tragic events. Keep in mind, her whole life changed as well. The two groups of perpetrators caused so much misery. She is holding back a lot of emotion just to get thru her testimony. She had a good life with her husband until these two groups of thugs took that away from her. Please don’t penalize her. I’m sure she wished she saw her husband’s distress calls sooner. She’s dealing with this the best way she knows how. I feel for this poor woman.
She divorced him as soon as she could
Why is everyone saying that she got a divorce right away and when Miu's lawyer asked when they got married and told him. And he asked why and she said because I loved him. And he asks and do you still to this day and she says yes. Who is saying that they divorced? I seen it in another comment as well?
@@kathystokes5127on the screen under her name it says "former wife of Miu". I believe that's why folks are saying they are divorced
NO. Nobody gets a free ride and the best light after the fact they did what is considered criminal. If she was a law abiding woman, and he was innocent like you must still be trying to profess, she would have grabbed the cops on the spot, and done what was right by claiming self defense. Instead tube by tube, she and he floated away, and thought they got away from any interrogation. She chose the wrong side of the coin in that toss, as they headed to their car to drive away. That was their plan. And, it is exactly what they were doing.
I appreciate you. Everyone is human, and we don't know what she's feeling.
This woman thinks it was traumatic for her. Imagine being stabbed and seeing your friend disemboweled
It wouldn't surprise me one bit if he was violent at home way before he went on this stabbing spree.
FAFO. Self defense.
And how could she be traumatized by what she claims she didn't see or even know about? She wasn't traumatized by her husband's coming back completely without marks, injuries, or comments. They weren't traumatized to the point of calling to report an assault, not even enough to flag the police that showed up and tell them what happened.
What traumatic thing did she suffer in the first place?
Maybe the exposure of her husband as a creep and a murderer.
EXACTLY!!!@@Chelle818
@alexadao8852 irrelevant. If you approach someone snd for no reason they attack you, does that make them innocent simply because you approached them?
The attorney has the articulation and vocabulary of a high school student. "What did you see somebody doing CPR that made you think they were doing CPR."
AGREE! He’s like a first year law student struggling in a mock trial.
He is not going after her hard enough.He needed to ask why she had no idea what was going on.
That's because he really doesn't have a case, so there's nothing to ask, that would be beneficial to the prosecution.
@@christinedockler9380 What she knew or didn't know about what was going on, doesn't have any bearing on the actual incident.
yes so dumbed down. Elitist thinking
Is that a (constant) look of disdain, smugness, or zombification? 🤔😑
Maybe SHE needs the CPR.... If it weren't for her blinking, or rolling her eyes, or speaking in monotone, I would have thought she was completely zoned out. 😴
Worst prosecutor ever.
The defense lawyer is even worse him having the defendant take the stand lost him his freedom. The video proved the drunk teenagers and the 4 drunk and stoned adults that joined in was the guilty ones not the senior citizen
@@JohnSmith-bw9wuhe has Kyle Ridenhouse lawyer
@@JohnSmith-bw9wu He lost any chance he had when he hid the knife and started making up cover stories. It showed a guilty mind. At that point, they probably figured he couldn't make it worse. And that they should martyr him. Despite him not being very charismatic, it worked. Go check the comments in many of the other videos, most people side with a grown man who killed and disemboweled unarmed children 1/4th his size. I would have thought the same outcome, but it's 2024, and people have lost their minds, so it turns out that the defense nailed it.
@@jaynewest5038 ONLY reason Rittenhouse got off with murder was that he had a MAGA, 2nd Amendment corrupt Judge. Rittenhouse is also a gun-loving psycho who has tried to get into the military. He has been banned from ever applying again. No gun playing for him!!!!

How are people saying that the video proves self defense? He charged at them in the very beginning of the video. He dropped his own damn snorkel and got pissed off. He hit the blond girl after everyone told him to leave. He stabbed 5 people, many of whom never touched him. He looked like a psycho. Why was he "looking for a phone" downriver from his group? Did they go back up river? The kids were being assholes but he could have and should have walked away. He lied about them having weapons. He hit her first. He murdered one boy and disemboweled another. He disposed of the knife and left the scene. Him and his group rendered no aid. Wtf

I remember another crappy prosecutor in the Rittenhouse case. With that one it seemed almost as if the prosecutor was trying to help Rittenhouse's defence.
The defense lawyer in this case is the same lawyer as in the Rittenhouse case. He's a great lawyer. I'd hire him if I was ever accused of murder.
Yes thought same… terrible questions that just don’t make sense
The young men who attacked him were videoing it. Its unbelievable. This is self defense. But the prosecutor may have been forced to prosecute
Is this the prosecutor's first case out of law school? Asking for a friend.
What if it is? Who cares.
I care because hes gulity! If they botch this case they should all be fired. 3 of them sitting there and not a good legal brain between them. The state should have brought in outside cousel that knew how to actually lawyer!

This woman is a fruitcake. She first says she doesn’t know he had a knife then said he used it to cut rope. Why didn’t their group go over and get Nicoli to leave the teens alone?
Wild ass case to get as your first one, it might end up being the most viral case of the year and all people will say is the prosecutor let everyone down.
She's void of all emotion

He didn’t get hit until after he hit a girl.
@@elainestokes7822 The girl surrounded him with her friends and tried to force him to leave without his property. He just wanted his phone back.
They attacked Nicolae and he defended himself. Anyone would have done the same. The court is corrupted, he was not guilty.
What a terrible direct examination by the prosecutor. The questions were poorly constructed to the point where you just didn't know what this prosecutor was making reference to...it was laborious, tough to watch, and even tougher to listen to.
Npt sure the prosecutor thinks this man should be on trial either by the questioning
Uwouldn't either. I've seen the video these young men took while they were intimidating and jeering him. Calling him "pedophile" and attacking him. He was merely looking for his friend's phone.
@@micheleh5269I mean I get that but you don’t disembowel someone and then just leave. They just left and that still is crazy to me.
@@AThiccStonedGemini They were all beating him up and hands around his throat in the water. Bunch of football players. He pulled his knife, slashed at whoever and got the heck out of there. Probably has ptsd. These kids need to be charged, not him. Plus they're lying while under oath
She was there for 20 min and not see anything with everyone yelling and screaming???
Plus multiple people covered in blood shes full of shit
Must have suddenly gone blind & deaf at that time.
She has vision and hearing impairment.
probably related to the head transplant
According to the video and frames from opening arguments, it was only 25 seconds that elapsed from the time he punched the first girl to him stabbing the 5th person. So the yelling was only a few minutes of taunting and the screaming was probably a couple minutes after people realized they were stabbed.
I've been fighting all my life, did two years in Raiford prison and have seen things like this escalate multiple times! Watched friends die have been stabbed myself and so on... The point is try your hardest to avoid confrontation because things like this happen so quickly you don't have control over it! It's best for everyone to keep their cool and try to deescalate the situation! ... All that being said this dude was defending himself after they started hitting and pushing him! People don't realize how easy it is to kill someone in a fight! You don't have to just stand there and take it or turn your back to assailants trying to walk away from people who just assaulted you!! It's unfortunate but dude didn't throw the first punch or touch any of them first!
Sage advice, but in the beginning of the vids, Nick went up to confront the harassing teens- he didn’t avoid confrontation at all. He jumped into the bee-hive and stirred up the bees…
@@juliea9661 yeah it seems like it was a totally avoidable thing on both sides
Yep. Like you said it happens so quickly, one thing after another, getting hotter and hotter. Both sides are in the wrong. Both sides had chance after chance to deescalate the situation. Unfortunately for everyone the last chance was not chosen. Instead these teens thought they were big and bad, all together mob mentality engaged you can tell when they're hootin'and hollerin' the same chants together. The man is willing to teach them a lesson, probably thought he could show the upper hand and put them in their place. Now in the second, despite all the happened prior, your looking at many vs one, one of the many decided to engage and it's on. They all fucked around and they all found out.
@@juliea9661he was drunk and from my experience that behavior happens unfortunately
@@yigalordbanette8044 I thought I saw one of the vids that said Nick WASN’T drunk? 😳Hard to watch them all, and keep all the threads straight… Easy to get wrong opinions if we don’t have all the evidence/facts… Most were drunk, and being intoxicated may be a causative, but it’s not a “just” excuse.
She appears numb, like her husband in the videos. What's going on with these two? She doesn't care her husband is being hit, thrown into the water. No care in the world about what happened? No question to her husband, the other 2 men who went to query what was happening ? No question about the commotion, thrown into the water, nothing at all? Is she brain dead???? No one in her questionned the incident? They carried on with their day, as if nothing happened? What's wrong with these people?
Boomers are very, very ill these days.
Exactly I agree
That's because none of that happened that way. Verdict was GUILTY.
I keep thinking my phone is freezing because of the pauses between questions.
This entire case is very sad. I know easy to say, should have, but, the right thing to do was to walk away. Ego comes center front while drinking.
For everyone there to walk away.
High school bully’s couldn’t just let dude look for a phone without thinking they could punk him, they fount out Fs
Stand up for yourself is the real answer. U will learn this one day.
@@hugostiglitz5976 he will “find out” what life behind bars is like
This trial is absurd!
I saw that video and I know I would have been terrified of that big group of guys if they were harassing me.
So she witnessed her husband surrounded by kids, and is being slapped, then someone is receiving CPR, but this doesn’t spark any curiosity, she just remains in her tube enjoying the sky and trees. She is weird, !
I thought they were just playing a game of splashy poo
Drinking only water stone 🥶 sober.
She might not be drunk bet she is high
SOUNDS LIKE YOUR AVERAGE WOMAN NOT WEIRD AT ALL. UNLES YOU'RE SOMEONE WHO THINKS WOMEN ARE MAGICAL GENIOUSES AND LOOK DOWN ON REGULAR WOMEN.
Umm she couldn't get out of her tube duuuh lol
The testimony of their co- tuber, Williams. After Miu comes back to the group, Williams went over to help the injured and directed the ambulances etc. He went back to Miu’s group where everyone was silent, Miu never said a word, they just proceeded to finish their excursion. Miu’s group acted like nothing happened even though they saw all the injured people. Williams was the only person who showed any humanity!
Had the stupid teens acted like decent human beings, they would all be around today and uninjured. Duh?
This defendant is a FULL BLOWN CREEP & A DANGER TO SOCIETY. GUILTY ON ALL CHARGES PLUS HAVING TRAUMATIZED A LARGE COMMUNITY! ... NO reasonable person looks for snorkels, a phone or floats down a damn recreational river with a KNIFE. KIDS WILL BE KIDS... HE HAD NO RIGHT! LIFE NO PAROLE. . 🙏
I've been there multiple times since the 80's and nobody I've ever been there with nor myself has ever thought or brought to bring a snorkel! It's for floating! This dude should have just walked away, and right before he started stabbing them he had the creepiest shit grin on his face! Sondra is a twit!@followerofchrist510
@@followerofchrist510 I 100% agree with you. This man gutted a teen, killed one with a fatal jab near the heart, and stabbed 3 others who luckily survived. He's an animal, and his complacent wife shows how scary this man must be in real life. No wonder anyone said anything to him in his friend group after the incident. They were probably horrified and didn't want to get stabbed themselves.
@@diane4537 help me understand your position...are you claiming that if you were shouting words at people that upset them, that would give them the right to stab you ?
As an avid river rat, I’d say ‘about two beers’ is wayyyy more than 2 beers
Zero remorse for the victims she’s cold as ice
He was surrounded and being attacked why have remorse
@@caseyblankenship987 no the evidence never showed it that way. He lost that day at the river, because he attacked and killed people on the river and the video shows just that. Jury decided. And anyone who took the time and watched him go after Isaac and Dante on that grainy video right up to the point of the splash would never take half a second to defend her or him or anyone in that group.
FFS, is this Prosecutor for real?? .Useless..
I know! His questions for all witnesses don't seem planned - they sound random and he doesn't sound confident. Also takes ages to show specific slides. Why isn't someone else getting them ready so he can just ask questions so he'll come across as better prepared.
FFS is damn right. I feel embarrassed for the people related to this “prosecutor”.
linda your peak in life has to be checking receipts at Walmart
Its hard to prosecute when you dont have a strong case.
Unfortunately, no Wal-Mart's here in the UK.
Her memory improved greatly for the defense attorney.
Yes. Great selective memory!
She a real 1. Dats dat ride or die fr fr💯
Too bad the prosecutor can’t ask a good question to save his life
@@Messpinoza80they know it’s clear self-defense. That’s why they helped the Schuman family suppress the video. The public would’ve demanded he be released and charges dropped. They have a case they know they aren’t winning.
@@rockstarofredondoIts not, though. He was in no way trying to exit the situation. You don't get self defense when you had the chance to walk away and didn't. Not defending the kids either, they played their part. He did not have to be there, yet he stayed. If you feel threatened, leave. He did, then came back. More than once. They didn't have him cornered at any point until possibly the seconds leading up to the first stabbing when he was pushed down. Not self defense. He needs prison.
The attorneys are very slow!!!!
"ohhhh the dog my baby... heart surgery. it turns out you do work around the house and run to the tub and jumped on one. guilty
This man was drunk as could be but managed to hit 5 people in less than a minute and all were hit in places that could take them out. I don’t know what retired assassin he was but doing all this never saying a word while being intoxicated is wild! Took one out, disemboweled another, got the girl in the stomach she had to be totally opened up. He hit them all around the same areas. He was tagging kids in the chest and stomach like he was John wick. Wildddd that in a chaotic frenzy you have that level of accuracy. Not one person noticed a knife and he hit 5 of them before the first one had barely found out she had a hole in her. Wildddd I’m not saying guilty or self defense because that’s what the jury has to decide. I genuinely have no idea which way it should go because both sides have extremely valid points. I’m just saying the speed in which he was able to accurately do what he did was insane to me.
Not a word? Before he ran after the girl and grabbed her tube he said something about getting a little girl.
I feel like he took the opportunity to say let me stab everyone and just say I feared for my life. This case is crazy to me.
@@ShhRoomvii I agree
I think I read he stabbed 4 of them in 28 seconds.
He clearly had a background in using a knife against people. Many Eastern Europeans use knives in fights and they commonly use the stab and rip motion, rather than just a stab - I'd be interested in his prior history....
Even if you have 10 people all shouting at you, you can walk away, that would be most people's instinct, rather than attack as many as you can. The perpetrator clearly decided to "bring a knife to a verbal altercation"
A version of "don't bring a knife to a fist fight"
He wasn't in fear for his life - no one had a gun, a baseball bat, a weapon....a knife, except him!
So she tells the lawyer she's not going to read the transcripts that they gave her to induce her memory a bit. Because she just doesn't remember. A fake divorce to try to make sure people that sue him doesn't get what they own. Should be treated as a hostile witness. And whatever this man owned before he did these stabbings is what should be put up to sell to pay some type of restitution to these families.
She is hostile...look at her eyes as she glares at the prosecutor.
Right? These people just make me sick
Just mean miserable person she had attitude b4 she sat down
Because they are facing unfair charges. This was self defense. Period.
@@cathydefelice6807 Right and look at her face all scrunched up.
Attorneys illprepared with questions
No way could i just tube by while all fhat was goinf on after the stabbing wtf. Is she emotionally void of empathy.
Thank you! Been searching the comments to see if anyone else noticed that. Wtf! And then they just keep cruising down the river in silence? Doesn't make sense.
We all saw how much blood was in the water. I was at an event and an animal died there. Everyone around was sobbing. I can’t imagine potentially seeing human blood in the water and people down and leaving the scene.
She was already down river past this.
@@rockstarofredondo I find the directions confusing. Maybe because I’m listening at work and not looking at all the diagrams. So Miu went upriver/against the stream to look for the phone? I guess that would make sense.
@@passatdreamm there are no diagrams
A trapped animal will lash out, especially when cornered.
This prosecutor is a piece of work, can't imagine having to listen to some of his inane questions for a day much less a week.
This lady must of watched a lot of democrats while being questioned at senate hearings. They didn’t see nothing didn’t hear anything and don’t know nothing.
You’re confused, it’s the republican’s favorite answer when under oath: “I don’t recall.”
😂😂😂
No matter how this woman feels, the teenagers were minors and her husband was supposed to be a adult and make adult decisions. By that I mean, why didn’t he just walk away? The wife said she sent two people from their group over “to get him” so obviously she saw him as a problem and knew he could get himself into trouble.
They weren’t all minors
@gabriellasanz6378 the deceased young man is
They were self entitled show off bullies...
She said she sent them over when she saw them punks surrounding him
@@sassybdiy7565shouldn’t have attacked Mr. Miu then.
Imagine being on trial for your life and your attorney sounds like an idiot who is completely unprepared to question any of the witnesses.
And what is the attorney doing wrong?
It’s the prosecution that sounds like he doesn’t know what he’s doing, not the defense attorney.
You must be new at this
@@thewhitematstudio I spent 27 years in courtrooms. I think I know the difference between a prepared attorney and one that is not.
@@SavedByTheBloodOfJesus777 I would agree but the prosecutor is not trying to save someone from spending the rest of his life in prison.
You don't need marks on your body to be traumatized.....watch the video ....this man was traumatized....
She’s a bad liar.
Damn she does not want to be there 😂
Someone buy that court room new microphones can't hear nothing but pens clicking
I feel sorry for what these bullies did to this man! Calling him a pedophile and basically were taunting him! Then they followed him too! If he felt his life was in danger then he has every right to defend himself! I don’t know the details because I have not been listening to all the testimony but the people who were there with the bully group are grown men at 17! The one black guy a year later at age 18 has the body of a grown man! It’s sad that people feel the need to try to make others uncomfortable and miserable and in fear! I truly believe this man protected himself and he was in fear of his life! 😢 Praying for the loss of the man who died and I’m praying that justice will prevail! Quit bullying!!!
Nick started this whole thing. He went to that group twice. He made the conscious decision to harass them. He made the decision to bring a knife while harassing them. It doesn’t matter if someone calls you hitler or a pedophile or a piece of crap. That doesn’t give you the right to escalate and stab 5 people killing 1 with intention of killing them all.
This case is the perfect example of how important it is to be CAREFUL of with whom you associate, whom you marry, whom you "party" with, and with whom you have children. Every encounter has consequences. Always THINK before you say yes to anyone. It takes a split second for things to go tragically wrong, lives ruined, lives ended. Being intoxicated in a public place, especially with strangers is NEVER a smart idea. Never. Just never.
Very eloquently put. It's too dangerous to drink in public, with strangers. Countless people's lives have been irrecovably changed forever because of this man's actions. He could have walked away at any time. I feel so sad for the victim who was murdered, his family and friends. Also, the victims who were scarred & traumatised for life, not to mention the witnesses who will never forget what they saw.
Such great advice!
This is Wisconsin. Everyone drinks here all the time unfortunately. I do not so I'm an outlier here. So many drunk people at everything in the summer. This is why I just tend my garden and stay home.

*Anyone else LESS THAN IMPRESSED with this lead prosecuter?!* Seems RATHER LAZY, as far as PREPARATION and QUESTIONS ASKED.
He's frustrated because she's changing her story from what she told him during her interview so his line of questioning isn't going where he wanted it to. This is also a very small town kind of area.
His big daddy owns the law firm 😅😅😅
she is purposely making it hard for him
I miss the lady prosecutor from the Rust Armorer trial. She was a boss!
Iv seen worse
The lawyer asking the questions really needs to learn how to ask focused questions.
She keeps saying she don't remember. Something like that happens, no matter how much you try to forget, you remember. She is playing stupid. She knows what happened, knows more than she is saying.
This is my third interrogation tonight I'm listening while I'm cleaning and these people are driving me insane cuz they're all doing this thing where they pretend like they don't know and they're just talking in circles and she's doing it and it's driving me crazy 😂😂😂 JUST SAY IT BRENDA 😭😭😭
To be fair they ALL forgot what happened that day.
@@rmc169 they may say they don't but something like that will sober you up fast. They may not remember every detail but I'm guessing they remember more than what they are saying.
@@tinalafever1756 she testified she didn't drink. So, no excuse for her memory slippin'.
Depends on how u handle trauma. For her. Her memory should be well. But in traumatic events, your brain will capartmentalize/dissociate and you won't remember much at all
32:46 lmao! So, your husband comes back from a physical altercation where someone is now getting CPR and you say you weren’t paying attention to, don’t recall attending to your husband or even observing him?!?!? Attorney, “did your husband have any injuries?” Wife, “I don’t recall looking for any” 🤦♀️
She’s not the brightest person…… most likely is not used in that sentence 😂

What is wrong with this lady!? She’s acting like she’s so inconvenienced.
Because she is.
key word "acting".
Her husband was attacked, and now her family is being fucked with because he defended himself.
After watching, im convinced i could do a better job than these lawyers
This is painful to listen too.
I wonder if this was the first time this attorney questioned a robot?
🤣🤣 Exactly!
Sounds as if one robot (slowing and running out of power) is questioning another robot with the same problem
I don’t find her to be a very credible witness.
Clearly self defence
Yup when you self defend, you change your shirt before meeting with cops called to question you
