severity of it all. oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god. but as emergency services are called, nick miro left the scene rejoining his group and started floating back down the river. >> just take a picture and save it. >> you can hear the ambulance and police sirens in the background as the group continues to float along like nothing has happened. as sheriff's deputies urgently search for nick miro, he realized that things got tremendously out of hand. >> blood is filling the water. he flees from the scene. >> nick is spotted and detained downriver. what's your name? >> nick. nick what? >> nick knew he's placed in a patrol car, and a few minutes later he starts telling his version of events. >> i hear somebody got stabbed and i fit the description. >> yes, you do. all right. yep. so we're working through that now. did you see that fight on

the river? >> i heard about it. >> you heard about it? yeah. >> and i seen people gather around it. okay. all right. and i went over to talk to see if somebody saw anything, but that's about it. >> he pretends to have nothing to do with the stabbing that killed 17 year old isaac schuman. aj martin was fighting for his life after being stabbed in the stomach. several others were also stabbed and needing urgent care. miyu is taken into custody. >> give me and you're on top of me. and that's. i don't remember anything after that. i just remember i ran away. i ran away to my to my group. >> and initially he says he's he's not involved at all. his story changes a couple of times as he's being interrogated. >> and all i can say it was a it was self-defense. self-defense. there are lots of people online. they came on to me. >> but in the cell phone video, the only person who had a knife was nick miro in his right hand,

held by his waist. >> the cell phone video was the centerpiece of the prosecution's entire case. >> the more nick speaks in his interrogation, the more lies he tells about the confrontation. you were so close in one hand and in his hand. >> so i took his hand and i bent it, and i poked him with his own hand. and then i took it from his hand. and then i went and swung like this. so i don't know who i hit. i just i just know that i took the knife. >> but with so much cell phone video available, his story doesn't hold water and his lies muddy his claims of self-defense. nick miro is charged with the homicide of isaac schumann and endangering the safety of those he injured, where it turned to the criminal, and where law enforcement and prosecutors got involved was when he produced that knife, causing the death of one person. >> severe injury to others. >> do you have a scar?

>> yeah, quite a quite a big one. >> oh, it stops right there. >> during his trial, those who were injured by miyu took the stand against him. alexander vang, testifying about trying to help his friend isaac schumann while in the water. >> i decided i needed to hold pressure on to the wound and try. and drag him to the shore. >> on the stand, nick miro said that he was afraid for his safety and was acting in self-defense, but admitted to lying about the knife during his interrogation. >> i lied about the knife. >> was that your knife? >> yes it is, it was. >> why did you take out your knife? >> at that point, i was beginning to be afraid. i was surrounded. they. they were yelling. they were. they had just pushed me with the families of the victims in the courtroom, including the parents of isaac schumann, the honor roll student who loved golf and was unable to

fulfill his aspirations of studying engineering at the university of wisconsin. >> the judge announced their verdict. >> the jury finds nikolai miro guilty of first degree reckless homicide. >> guilty on all counts. the judge sentencing nick miro to 20 years in prison. >> at the end of the day, when jurors see that kind of violence and that loss of life and even the survivors are scarred for the rest of their lives, it's very hard for them to allow someone like that to walk out of the courthouse a free person. >> coming up next, the disappearance of a young model baffled investigators for years, until they inally get the break that they'd been hoping for. >> watch this. it's all 100% real. witness what happens to this woman's bags under her eyes in an actual time lapse. in just minutes, nothing has been doctored or tampered with. the

the case haunted colorado springs detectives until a surprising source helped solve the case on a website called modelmayhem. 19 year old kara nichols described herself as a sexy new blond in town, and joel hollendorfer couldn't resist. unfortunately for kara, it would be a fatal encounter. >> he strangled a woman to death. >> now, true crime news revealing horrifying details in a murder that took a decade to solve but finally put a killer behind bars. >> he drove her lifeless body to his mother's ranch, wrapped her in numerous bags and duct tape, threw her on top of a dead horse, and threw lime all over her to cover up a crime. that's premeditation. and that is evil. >> on that october night, kara told her family that she was heading to a fashion shoot in denver.

>> it's my understanding at the beginning of the investigation that kara was going to the denver metro area for a photo shoot, but none of the information led to that being truthful. >> the truth? kara was actually working as an escort. kara's mom, julie, says like many teens, kara had rebellious years in high school but was trying to turn her life around far from her family home in chicago. >> the last conversation i had with her, i remember trying to encourage her, if not beg her to come back to us. i just remember wanting so badly to get her back. i think modeling for kara was a mask was a way to step into a different identity. >> whether kara was actually headed to a modeling job was unknown, but her family could have never guessed that evening would lead to devastating heartbreak. >> her friends alerted us that she was not picking up her phone. she was not answering text messages or messages on

facebook or social media. and that's when we became very worried. >> kara's older brother filed a missing persons report at the local sheriff's department, where he felt dismissed. >> from day one, he was told to just sit tight, that she was an adult and they didn't want to be needlessly alarmed. >> frustrated, the nichols family sought help from michel bart of the women's coalition against violence and exploitation, a group that shares information on hundreds of missing persons cases. >> the family wanted answers. they deserved, answers their daughter deserved to be looked for, and we took it national. >> kara's parents flew to colorado springs to join the search. in kara's bedroom, they find clues her proiona makeup case was still there, along with her laptop, a phone charger and nearly $300 car. a cell phone records from that night eventually led police to a

man named joel hollendorfer. he tells police that he and kara texted, but never hooked up that night. her cell phone data says otherwise, putting her very close to where he lived on his parents farm. but when investigators searched the property using cadaver dogs, they find nothing with no solid leads, kara's case quickly grew ice cold. >> imagine being a parent and knowing that their child has disappeared and doesn't know what happened to him, or they've been murdered and don't know what happened to him. that's a loss that you can't fill. so we continue on. we won't stop. >> then, nearly a decade later, and by sheer chance, hollendorfer is picked up on an unrelated warrant. when police ask him about kara, he still denies any involvement. but this time, detectives tracked down his ex-wife, christina, and she drops a bombshell, telling them joel once confessed he accidentally strangled an escort

while they were having sex in his car and buried her body in a horse grave on his parents property, all while married to christina. an fbi evidence response team again searches the farm, this time focused on a specific spot, and they're three feet down. they find a black plastic bag inside a human hand and human remains. it's kara. >> they'll never get over this. >> hollendorfer was charged with second degree murder, but at his trial, the family grew furious, saying that kara's character was on trial more than her killers. >> the whole entire two week trial was all about how she was on a site, or how she dressed or the drug use. >> a jury saw through that, but only convicted hollendorfer of the lesser charge of manslaughter. for kara's parents. it was yet another

wound to their scarred hearts. now, the family vows to make sure this killer serves every minute of his 24 year sentence, and they've called upon police to dig up the rest of his parents property. >> i think if other evidence is discovered about his way of life, that's how he'll be able to never see daylight. that's a monster that is a sociopath, that is evil. >> hollendorfer. his next parole hearing is scheduled for may of 2033. her family v vs to fight is release. we'll be right back. >> resolve. >> your pet knows if a mess is really gone. if not, they may mark the spot. resolve gets rid of pet messes better than the leading competitor. destroying stains, neutralizing odors, and preventing remarking. love the love. resolve the mess. >> here's the problem with your

towels they can carry harmful bacteria that may disrupt your skin's protective barrier. that's why i switched to clean towels. clean towels are one time use compostable face towels that are clinically shown to keep your skin barrier strong and healthy. in a recent clinical study, 100% of participants saw an improvement in their overall skin health. join over 1 million people and make the switch to clean towels today. >> still congested? nope. oh. >> new mucinex 2 in 1 saline nasal spray spray. >> goodbye. >> new mucinex 2 in 1 saline sal spray with a gentle
