Investigators say the July 2022 video shows Nicolae Miu being pushed and stabbed by a group of tubers on the river before he stabbed 5 people, killing 17-year-old Isaac Schuman. The victims ranged from 17 to 24 years old and were from Wisconsin and Minnesota. The trial of a 51-year-old Prior Lake man charged with killing a teen and stabbing 4 others on the Apple River in Wisconsin nearly two years ago began on Monday.

Witnesses say Miu initially went into the river with goggles and a snorkel. A group accused him of looking at young girls underwater, but Miu told investigators he was searching for a friend’s lost phone. Prosecutors allege Miu was the one who stabbed 5 people. The knife believed to be Miu’s was later recovered by authorities on the riverbank.

However, Miu’s defense attorneys paint a very different picture, saying the teens taunted him, then surrounded him, and Miu was fighting for his life.

He’s charged with first-degree intentional homicide in Schuman’s death, and attempted first-degree intentional homicide in the stabbings of Rhyley Mattison, A.J. Martin, Dante Carlson and Tony Carlson. He pleaded not guilty to all charges in September 2022.

If convicted, Miu could face life in prison. “All Nicolae had to do was walk away,” Anderson said. “He eventually did walk away, but not after stabbing five people.”
