Nikolai walked over to the kids and initiated the assault by punching someone first. Then the group reacted, and Nikolai began stabbing people. How do you even justify such an escalation ? Cause they may have said some things, and he got mad? So taking a life and physically assaulting people is okay cause you're mad and there's more of them?

WHAT?!? Billions of people spend BILLIONS of hours at the river, the ocean, the club, at parties, etc and they do so for decades and nothing like this ever happens. What in the heck are you talking about? I've been going to the river since I was little - around 2 years old. My parents and their friends drank and did whatever drugs they did back then al9ng with at least 50 other couples who were also always at the river. Now I'm 40 and I have river front property. We get on our boat and zoom straight across the river to the same island my parents enjoyed for decades. And there are now more couples out there drinking and doing God knows what types of drugs.... No one has ever been disemboweled or hurt other than the occasional cut from stepping on broken glass. I've been a medical provider for 23 years in the ER and while I do see the occasional alcohol or drug related incident, I see far more "sober" accidental injuries. Kids on trampolines and traffic are the worst. We do see alot of GSW (shootings) at the club between gangs... But as far as most people who live in small towns and have nothing better to do than to drink and smoke and snort and party at the lake, the river, the barn, or the field, or even on four wheelers and side by sides, it's relatively low. If you don't wanna drink, no one is making you. But some people enjoy it. And what you're saying is absolutely 💯 false. "Accomplish absolutely nothing"... 😂😭🤣🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🙄

If you surround me with 5+ strangers and start hitting me and pushing me under the water, I don't know if I'd be able to show as much restraint as that guy did... and to be honest I don't know about you guys but the way my parents raised me, there just isn't a scenario where you would find me in a group of peers jeering and picking on an older man, let alone surrounding or physically swarming.

They for no damn reason, called him a pedo. It brought other drunk ppl to the crowd, they started to rough him up and push him under the water. At that point, they just tried to kill him

[@cyberzenASMR]

@@Seasniffer1969 I believe it was the black teenager holding the camera recording who made the disparaging comments of the older man being a pedophile. These teens were dealing with a disoriented drunk man (includes women too) that came up and it was harassing. That does not equal mob behavior to deal with it. Instead of running or walking away. They believed the pedo comment and in the video, grabbed the older man by the neck. In majority of states, grabbing someone anywhere on the neck pushing or squeezing is considered lethal assault. I feel bad for the teens… because they evidently do not know how to neither fight, throw a simple punch, and none carried a weapon. But since day 1 in pre-k, they were educated on morals, theft, assault ranging from sexual, simple, and felony cases. Rip to the teen guy… but him and his friends should have never chose conflict.

Nicolae was looking for a lost friend's phone. He was wearing snorkel gear and came close to the teen tubes, again looking for the phone. The teens assumed he was an old pervert looking at girls and started call him names like "child molestor" and other insults. Then they confronted him telling him to leave. He looks like he was drunk in the video and he probably refused. Then someone grabbed his snorkel gear and threw it in the water. Some feisty girl from the teen group also came in close to him and also called him names and got in his face, which is why he punched her. This is when the teens started attacking him, pushing him, punching him, and surrounding him. He was clearly outnumbered and panicked so he got out his knife and attacked. The mistake he made is lying to police afterwards and trying to cover up what he did. He also lied and said the knife was one of the teens and he had taken it from a teen. He also didn't mention being hurt or scared when police initially picked him up. Everyone involved was at fault. Everyone had been drinking and everyone rushed to conclusions. Just shows how a few seconds of ego can cost you so much. Egos flared up from both sides - the teens assuming the worst and Nicolae lashing out in anger instead of just waving the knife around and backing away. But again, they were drunk and drinking lowers consciousness and inflates the ego.

I’ve had to jump in several times, and each time I noticed that people didn’t step up because they either were in shock, didn’t care, or didn’t know how to help. I can’t fault people for not getting involved when they are in shock or don’t know what to do, but I do find it especially sick when people don’t help because they don’t care because without fail these types of people expect everyone else to help them when they need it. Luckily, not everyone is like this. I’ve been in more situations where we were all strangers but everyone played a part to call for help and help those who were injured until help arrived.
