After 11 years, police finally believe that they have enough evidence to make their move against Nick Furcus.

Nick, come on out.

Nicholas Furcus is in custody on suspicion of murdering his wife, Heidi.

Today, we're one step closer to getting justice for Heidi and the truth.

Do you think that he thought that he would ever be arrested?

No, I believe he thought he got away with it.

Nick is charged with both first-degree and second-degree murder.

I thought that was it.

I thought, okay, he's going to go to jail.

Little did I know that it was not even close to being over.

His attorneys are arguing that Nicholas's wife, Heidi, was killed during a break-in.

But Ramsey County prosecutors say there's no sign of anyone else in the home other than the couple.

It's been nearly 13 years since Heidi Furcus' murder and the trial for her husband Nick is finally underway in this courthouse.

And both sides are arguing completely different versions of what happened that morning.

The tension between the two parties was very noticeable.

One family against another family, essentially.

Correct.

And families that used to be somewhat united.

It was just, like, really traumatic.

And to see people say things about your friend that aren't true.
