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.

Poor Gareth being photographed naked, what about poor Amie who’s post mortem pictures has to be shown in court 😠 this guy is a monster
Even the judge is tired of the defense lawyer
It is trash collection day every day in court!!!!! How would he know that or ask for it???
Wears gloves but kicks out a window in shorts 🙄
These defence cross examinations of the witnesses are so bad, they are proving NOTHING to help their client.
The defense attorneys are HORRIFIC. Are they still waiting to see if they passed the BAR EXAM? No respected law firm would hire these idiots!!!!
UGhs i hate seeing Gareth's dough dump face
His lawyer is so annoying
Dwight Shrute as Defense Attorney is pretty comical. He's so frustrated and confused.
I got sick of them showing the accused. Why not show the witness?
Omfg the defence lawyer is shocking! Even the judge is sick of him. He shouldn’t have pursued a law career.
This defense attorney must have gotten his degree from the back of a comic book! His questioning is ridiculous!
No sure if defense will raise this, but the whole issue of interviewing 2 witnesses together and it changing eachother ls memory, the Dr had already been given interviews and given his recollection of events, She was the only one being interviewed at the time so it's a non issue!
I wish amie would have had a firearm , she would be in the right for shooting this psycho who broke into her home with the intent to kill her . RIP 😢
40:54 THANK YOU finally for past 20 mins im like saying same dang thing!
33:07 the attorney need to watch himself hes getting pretty mad at the judge slamming his hands down…. Dude chill
The male defense atty. is so annoying!
I'm not sure who the editor of this video was, but this was not their best effort 🤔. Where's the complete footage of this day's trial?
Are these court appointed attorneys? His cross examination is extremely painful to watch, this judge is a saint, not losing his cool imo
It is absolutely disgusting how throughout this whole trial the pos has mostly been looking down and not making eye contact with witnesses except when they spoke about nicotine. Now that the ME is testifying he is locked in starring at the ME, he is interested in reliving the horrifying damaged he caused to this poor woman. He is not sick, he is pure evil, the way she fought and left marks on him is heartbreaking. All because she did not give him the attention he wanted. I am so deeply sorry Amie and my heart goes out to everyone that loves her.
When her injuries are being described he's very attentive. He's a very sick man.
I wonder why, when they are talking about the biological material they colleged they don't tell us if it matches Gareth. This is interesting that when the forensic Pathology Examinator testifies, this is the one part where Gareth lifts his head and appears to be VERY interested to hear what he has to say about Amy's corpse.
Editing is shocking
let's just get to defendants blood in the house and being done with this
I can’t believe he made this retired detective stay over the weekend for 30 more minutes of his inane questions. If he were making any kind of relevant argument I would understand, but it seems like these were just 3 days of retirement that this poor man will never get back. Edit: 1 hour plus.
He doesn’t look up the whole trial until they’re showing images of her body. Disgusting!
What does the state of GPs house have to do with anything. What does the photos shown have to do with the murder?
1:15:19 oh my gosh dude defense move on…
You may think this judge is funny but he’s prejudicing the jury and thus will go to appeal
I don't know why people like this judge. He interrupts way too much for no good reason.
Who cares if he was naked….
WRT DOORS HE LOOKS RELIEVED
WOW THE DOOR HAS HIS ATTENTION
These Defense attorneys are insane, stop repeating the same questions over and over to every single witness!
Such pointless defense questions that don’t at all help their client.
Why are these videos so messed up? Sometimes they repeat and sometimes things are left out????
He makes me sick the way he just sits there. I’m certain to some degree he gets off on this. Hearing all her injuries. No emotions whatsoever. He’s satisfied with his handiwork
Yuck. GP looks up to observe the autopsy tech & coroner testimony, but looks down thru most of the rest of the day.
How is the jury supposed to be able to make sense out of this rapid stream of random questions? 🤷
2:30:48 geez this lady 🙄🙄🙄
On this map with no identifiers tell me where you found this piece of evidence. WTH. I concur with the frustration of the judge with Defense Council's questions
wow this defense lawyer is going to give this monster fodder for appeal by way of inadequate defense. 😢
He has just killed someone, and she's obsessed with the fact that he had to be photographed..
How is it possible that from day 1 to day 8 bro looks like he’s gained 15kg? What kinda snacks do you get in prison?
I wonder of there were any consequences for the body transport person who violated protocol by removing her genital piercing.
