HUDSON, Wis. (KFGO/WCCO) – The attorney who helped Kyle Rittenhouse get an acquittal on murder charges is now defending a Prior Lake make accused in the stabbing death of a teenager from Stillwater.
52-year-old Nicolae Miu told court officials in western Wisconsin Friday that he hired Corey Chirafisi to defend him in the attack that happened during a tubing trip last month on the Apple River in St. Croix County.
Miu is charged with first-degree homicide in the death of Isaac Schuman, claiming he was acting in self-defense during a scuffle with several people.
In 2020, Chirafisi successfully defended Kyle Rittenhouse, who also claimed self-defense after killing and shooting two men during civil unrest in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
That unrest came following the police shooting of Jacob Blake.
