Famed sex therapist Amie Harwick was found outside of her Hollywood Hills home struggling to hold onto life after allegedly being thrown off of a third-story balcony in 2020. Harwick died at a hospital shortly after the fall from blunt force injuries to her head and torso, along with evidence of strangulation. Authorities quickly zeroed in on her ex-boyfriend, Gareth Pursehouse, who had previous restraining orders filed against him by Harwick and was described as a “stalker” by many of the doctor’s friends. Pursehouse now faces trial in a California courtroom for Harwick’s murder.
Pursehouse’s defense said the defendant admitted to breaking into Harwick’s home but did not murder her. They are seeking a not guilty verdict on the murder charge and asking for a lesser charge.

Ok….really? How long does it take to say, 'we the jury find him guilty'? Are they trying to make it look like they are weighing all the evidence? GUILTY!
What am I looking for for 6 hours?
Is there a video of the announced verdict?
Did they show the jury giving the verdict??
Where is the verdict?!?!?
The jury has reached a verdict, according to News Nation.
YES!!!!!!!
Wow, no verdict yet 🤦🏽♀️
FIRST DEGREE!!! FIRST DEGREE!!
Thinking of Amie and her loved ones today. ❤
I figured a few hours tops, surely the jury didn't buy that poor Gareth just wanted to talk B. S.
Why is this taking so long?!? This is a slam dunk case. Hope one person does not jeopardize this tragic case.
It’s a 3 hour difference. Now it!s 1:24pm. Did he kill self.
That video is crazy. Someone let him out the house. I saw that hand. Who was that. They should hold that person accountable.Who was that the boyfriend. That makes no sense to me.
When will verdict watch start back. It's already noon
Can’t believe they’re taking this LONG
Is this a death penalty state?
Will the verdict be LIVE or delayed?
Surely they’ve decided by now. This kept me awake last night – I need to know 🙈
What time are they supposed to start? It's 8:40am
Is this live? I had to search for it…
I can’t believe the defense was stating because he was so emotional and distraught that basically Aimee made him do it! That’s what I got out of their closing arguments. 🤷🏻♀️😡
Something tells me they come back today..🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
what happend with this verdict???
What time does court resume eastern time
Jury is probably eating breakfast right now.
What time is it going to start today? I'm in South Carolina tks
I watched all the raw footage of the trial. I thought it would be a slam dunk and be back in minutes. That being said I still respect the jury taking their time in the understanding that they are affecting a persons life for their lifetime. However…. He took Amie’s life and effected so many others by ending hers. My fingers are crossed that they find him guilty on all counts early today.
Does the jury have the option of 2. degree murder?
I am praying for justice for Aime as the external world awaits a verdict
Wait so there’s no video?
Hello everyone, will there be a verdict today, here in Germany it is already 12 o'clock in the morning and i don't want to miss it,thanks and greetings from. 🇩🇪
Thinking of Amie's family and loved ones as we wait for the Verdict. After three years of grief since the loss of beautiful Amie, their anguish now must be truly painful. May there be justice for Amie to support them in the future. Let's hope for news today x🌹💔
6 hours of NOTHING…😂
Why can't I see it
Keep him locked away forever he WILL kill again….
Sucks!!!
I was checking online about the case. I found two restraining order applications from Amie against Gareth. Mind you in both applications, she mentions pretty brutal assaults, prior break in and choking. The jurors have all details of the case although some could not be referred to in court due to legal issues. This man will be 100% charged of all charges made against him. There is no scope for any error. The evidence is overwhelming.
Goodnight owls ❤😊
I feel that if he ever gets out of prison some other women will be murdered he is so scary.
