The man on trial for the 2022 stabbing in the Apple River told the jury yesterday he felt he had no choice but to defend himself.
Nicolae Miu spent most of the day yesterday answering questions in his murder trial. He told the jury he was simply trying to get away from a group of teens who were harassing him, and eventually fighting with him in the river two years ago. Miu is charged with killing one of those teens, and injuring four others. Prosecutors questioned why Miu brought a knife with him when he said he was snorkeling for a missing phone. Closing arguments in the case are scheduled to start this morning.
