The way he killed her really bothers me. So inhumane! When he is found guilty, he should be sentenced to be thrown off a balcony too!
Ikr?!! Definition of a CREEP. He couldn’t take the rejection. He’s incredibly lucky she even was dating him in the first place! Baffles me as to how he even got this far in life.
@@jomolandHe was so obsessed!!!! 9yrs had gone by! Not 9 months which even that is a long time! 9yrs and he was still obsessed with her. Psycho!
Face first, preferably.
How was that?
Head 🗣️ first
The law has to be more severe against people who break their restraining orders.
Yup lots of women killed by an ex had a restraining order. They really don't do any good.
The restraining order would only be good for 1 year after issue, unless she had applied for extension and was granted by the court for valid reason. This did occur in 2011 and then again in 2012, but she never renewed it after. The restraining order was no longer in effect so he did not violate that. She saw him two weeks before he murdered her, she could have filed again and did not.
You know we have the ability to carry firearms right?
@@trip3174 good point
@@trip3174 Believe me, the whole world knows the USA citizens have the legal right to carry arms. I am open to hearing what you mean.
Please explain to me in this specific scenario, how having a gun would help and when? While they are in line in the award show?
This murderer makes me sick.
It’s so sick the way he’s allowed to watch her final moments in this trial.
This is what he wanted. He gets to read her diary txt msg call log ect. He's a stalker and in his element having access to all this.
This man is disgusting and emotionless about what he’s done and there’s no way she would have jumped off the third floor balcony in my humble opinion
I’ve only ever seen him look up once. Coward. What he did was reprehensible.
But he shows great interest in the videos
@@shanalacey1 Like the OP says, he seems to be looking down the entire time like a complete coward. Am I missing a part where he looks up at the evidence?
Any man who beats a woman is a COWARD in my book!! 😡😡
@@ruth_gordon He's watching a monitor in front of him, you can see it reflect in his glasses every now and then. He might be watching what we are watching, the view of whomever is on the stand.
Sandi he's a cold blooded killer, a stalker, he blames her for ruining his life.
I hate how focused he looks at the evidence (body cam, photos of her) like he is still obsessed. He deserves to never see her again. She seemed like a wonderful person. He stole her; like the greedy freak he is.
I feel the same.
I noticed that too especially when they were discussing the autopsy. He looked up at the pictures. This dude is still obsessed.
power and control
I agree! He acts like he’s enjoying himself! He won’t last long in prison. They’ll be waiting for him.
probably feels connects him to her in the ultimate way something he always wanted
This is horrifying keep the camera off this animal
His father is a stalker too. Stalked his ex girlfriend for 3 years.
Oh rly? 🤔
Didn’t know that was genetic.
That's where he learned it
Yep heard this too
Being a sex therapist she probably gave him crazy coochie. And he couldn’t resist. So he killed her. If he couldn’t have her, no one could.
I have so much respect and admiration for first responders. Seeing something like that would tear my nerves up.
the defense said they were slow
Oh, dear Lord, bless every responder and the families of victims
He couldn't have her so nobody could! Absolute monster who abused Amie when they were together. She got away & moved on to better things, he couldn't stand it! A control freak of a man without power is a dangerous thing. He enjoyed the fear he created in her & I'm sure he's sat there enjoying hearing how Amie would tell her friends about him. She blossomed without him whilst he stayed a nobody. She was on the red carpet, he was in the background taking pictures. She was a star, a beautiful, talented & popular woman, he couldn't stand it. He's a coward & I can't wait for tougher stalking laws to be made. Restraining orders should be for life & stalkers should be tagged.
Well said
Agree 100 percent
What’s a restraining order gonna do? I mean it’s”written” that abuse, violence,murder, and breaking and entering are illegal and that didn’t stop him so an additional piece of paper isn’t stopping a guy like this.
Amies's friends are trying to change the stalking laws. I hope this case makes that difference.
restraining orders do nothing as a would be murderer will simply ignore them. The ONLY people who are "restrained" by a court ordered restraining order, are people who should not have had the order placed on them! That is because they are not criminals and they got intimately involved with a vengeful sociopath who knows the law. That said, I would be perfectly happy to drop this guy off a balcony. All they have to do is ask me and it would be done.
What a monster… death penalty pleasee
No DP in CA
Not an option but I'll take him rotting in prison.
His narcissism didn't want to accept that she was no longer interested in him.
He's shown zero emotion or remorse.
Such a sad, unnecessary death of a productive young lady. Evil hearts reside in scary people. Prayers for her all loved ones. I pray she did not suffer long after that scream. I pray for her roommate too. Survivors guilt is a real thing.
Likewise, I’m not a believer but I send all my deepest condolences to everyone involved. As far as the roommate - I agree 100%, he’s catching a LOT of flak online too sadly. People don’t get the full story about what went down and think he was a coward or something. Like her freaking door was locked and he lost his phone, hard to handle that when you’re awoken with screams that early in the morning. If he didn’t get on the phone or a weapon, there could have been two victims that night.
She was literally broken. 😞
The urine on the floor near the entrance to her room, indicates something tragic happened to her way before she went over the balcony. Slam dunk for the prosecutor.
WHY does this camera person spend SO much time on the defendant's face ? Its obvious that he will NOT so any expression what sp ever . Please show more of the people that are actually speaking!
This is a good part of why judges/defense don’t want cameras in the courtrooms. Focus should be on witnesses.
Yes!!!!!!!!!
I want to hear the trail but hate having to see this bloat goat so much! He just sits there looking like a POS as they describe the horrific condition this poor girl was in after what he did!
Why was the paramedic ambulance not sent immediately??? This alone could have had the potential of saving her life as they are better equipped and have more experience in the kind of trauma this lady had?!
Typically they're staged away from the scene until confirmed "safe"
He also injected her with nicotine.
If there had been a trauma surgeon that happened to be walking by. She unfortunately could not have survived. She sustained unsurvivable injuries. 😢
Is he just sitting staring at the photo of her when she had just been found? He shouldnt be allowed to see those he'll be getting off on it. He can't sit still and listen to what he did, he's messing about with paperwork?? That's really disrespectful! Hes a stalker hes very visuall!!! When are the police going to realise stalking only escaltes and escalates to this!
The defendant in jailhouse talks with friends was joking around. And to top that off he told them to market and sell his belongings off using his infamy and crime to get more money. Absolutely despicable.
25 minutes before the ambulance arrived, are you kidding!!!!!!
He shows no remorse! He even looks like he’s enjoying hearing about the damage he did to her body.
The fact that he went over there with a syringe full of liquid nicotine to injector to die that way my Lord he was going to have her have a brutal death one way or another
I can't understand why this is going to trial… its obvious from all the evidence he murdered her. He's a creep not only did he make her life a misery when she was alive but robbed this lady of the rest of her life because of his sick obsession with her. Hope he rots in prison.
It’s going to trial so they can give him the longest sentence possible. Otherwise they would have to agree to a plea deal to keep this out of court. And plea deals can be something ridiculous like 15 years. Yup. They do that .
Could we not focus the camera on the defendant during testimony?
The accused is so damn nonchalant it makes me sick. No empathy or response to anything he did 😱 total freak and psychopath
Is it just me or does Pursehouse in photos from the past look NOTHING like him during the trial?
Jeez, where did his jawline go?!
I kept wondering who he was at first
He looks the way he really is deep down, a POS
Prison and weight gain will do that to a person.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
How does anyone “with eyes bulging” from strangulation and being beaten up have the strength to get to a balcony and throw themselves over let alone hold on” he lawyers insane defense strategy 😮
What is his defense? That she fell over? I’m confused… it’s obvious he was obsessed with her years after their break up and he wouldn’t let it go. Very sad that we lost her. She seemed so beautiful
I know isn't it crazy they literally hadn't seen each other for ten years and then he sees her at the Red Carpet and kills her a month later!
He didn’t kill her that night. He killed her a month after seeing her at an awards show.
And on Valentine's evening. Imagine if she brought a date home, would he have watched and shamed her or would he have tried to kill them both. Urrgh.
Clearly, he did this. She could not have strangled herself & jumped from the balcony. Such a waste of taxpayer money 🙄🙄
They aren't saying he didn't attack her in her house, the defense is that it wasn't premeditated first-degree murder (he didn't intend to kill her and that she jumped? to escape him)
THIS IS A TRUE MONSTER. MAKES ME SICK EVEN HOW EVERYONES MOVING HIS PAPAETS AND HE HAS WATER TO DRINK WHEN HER FAMILYS IN THE COURT ROOM. THIS IS SO HORRIBLE AND MAKES ME SICK AND MAD. HE COULD CARE LESS OF WHAT HE DID. ITS LIKE MISSION ACCOMPLISHED FOR HIM. WHY DONT WE HAVE THE DEATH PENILTY BRING IT BACK WHAT IS WRONG WITH US?.
"and he has water to drink" lol what
So the first reponder officers asked for an ambulance and they sent a fire truck....Amie was on the floor for almost 1 hour before she was uploaded on an ambulance....that is not a good response at all.
It is CA. She was not on the floor,she was outside on the ground.
Any time an ambulance is called, firefighters show up as well. Who shows up first depends on a lot of situations, and clearly you didn't even listen to the end of the damn video
@@ambassadorcartwright7720 when and officer calls an ambulance describing a critical patient they send an ambulance, who didn't hear the part of the damn video where the paramedic says he doesn't know why they sent them without a paramedic ambulance is you.
@@Leaveit_alone potatoe/ potato she was where she landed without a paramedic. Also what does the fact they were in CA had anything to do with my comment?
@@fernandaolivares7926sometimes in California, especially L.a. it might take 30 minutes to get an ambulance anyways. It’s not right. It’s not ok. But that’s probably what they meant by saying that. But if they didn’t dispatch one ( I haven’t watched the full video yet) then that’s very fukt up in itself. Because one possibly could have been there in minutes for all we know.
Wow I’m so done. Why is the camera constantly on him? Can’t even watch bcz they keep the camera on this pos. I’ll have to watch recaps instead! He takes up the whole screen and they don’t even zoom out! It’s disgusting! He is a sight to avoid truly and such gross closeup gives me a headache.
I totally agree. He's enjoying all of this. I don't want to see him only the witnesses. He's had the exact same pose since day 1!
Right! I would like to see the witnesses and evidence when possible as well-and whatever else is going on in the court room, but they have kept the camera on him zoomed in far too long! It’s nauseating. Who is handling the camera and who decided this was a good idea? Ugh! I will keep up with the trial as best I can thru other YT means to avoid having to look at this monster. Not my preference, but the cameras fixed on him -I can’t watch! @@levithewonderdog335
I think the camera is looking for a response from him..
@@Stephanie_Ella Yes, I get that, but it stays on him far to long. Compared to other trials, and I’ve watched many other live trials, this is sick. It makes it truly difficult for me to watch when all I am seeing is him. One might as well listen to the trial. Truly a bad move from whoever decided to fixate on him as if not to miss him blinking! There could be at least other cameras with other courtroom angles as to not shove him on our faces.
@@_phileodon’t watch
Horrific- what does he think gives him the right to take another's life? He deserves life in prison for this brutal murder. My condolences to her family and friends😢
Anyone else feeling the energy of the guard sitting behind him ?
Such a horrific way to die. 😢
Look at what you did to her coward grr makes me so angry 😡
Zero emotion from this man. It Makes me so angry and sad🥹 This case is horrific and breaks my heart. Poor Amie😰🙏🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️🦋🕯️☁️
Such a waste of a brilliant light 💔
What is up with these roommates? Amie asked this guy to move in with her because she was afraid. She asked him to keep an eye out. So he hears what he describes as breaking glass in the early morning hours, yet doesn't get up to investigate. Instead he ignores it thinking Amie dropped a plate or something. Then later he hears her screaming, but instead of coming to her rescue and possibly saving her life, he runs out of the house. Brilliant.
It's like the roommate in the Moskow Idaho case that witnessed a masked man in her house at 4am, hears her roommate crying, yet doesn't call 911. Instead she just shuts her door and goes back to sleep. WTF
If that’s Amie’s intention to have her roommate, she s wrong in the first place. I don’t think it’s fair to blame the roommate, he did rush out and call 911, and you can tell from the recording that he s in urgent sense and traumatized big time… he did want to help, not everyone is macho especially he didn’t know if they had a gun or knife… just sayin
Gosh his attorney is really criticising the first responders after thanking him for his service
When that occurs, it’s because that’s their only defense. Just shows you they don’t have one.
Just curious, why do a lot of defendants gain quite a bit of weight by the time their trial comes around?
I think it's because they're sitting in jail instead of going about their normal daily routine. He does look like a completely different person!
Because if they are locked up for any time , in his case I guess 3 yrs, they have little activity and are eating cheap fatty foods. So they gain weight!
Comfort eating commissary goodies, like top ramen and Cheetohs.
My guess.. loss of access to steroids, HGH, 24-hr gym access, and high quality protein shakes.
They have to eat whatever’s available to everybody else.. as they should.
Bread and potatoes...cheap carbs, prison food,from what I've heard is mostly carbs.
Defense to first responder: "Do you believe that you moved with a lack of urgency in this situation?" I'm sorry, but that lawyer is a disgrace.
He's so into seeing the results of his sick murder.
Totally he's enjoying this.
This Monster has really changed his appearance and is trying to look like a Nurd
⚖️ I Pray he gets Mr Sparky 🙏
If she "fell" as the defense said, and if the Defendant didn't push her, then why didn't he call 911 to get her help??
Appreciate Law and Crime Network for this coverage,
What a SLUG he is
He's certainly been eating away his guilt my Lord carbs Galore
Right? He’s unrecognizable from the pictures of him on Google.
I was thinking the same. Totally unrecognizable.
I’ve never seen him look up that was the first time😮
I know that the officers have to secure the scene and are limited to basic first aid, but she was obviously in severe distress so I can't figure out why it took so long for EMS to get there even if her odds weren't so good.
yes and even EMS seemed very cavalier.
I was thinking the exact same thing! Unbelievable
They said even if they had got her to the hospital straightaway Amy still not have lived.
Seeems soooo long for the ambulance to come. Is that normal? Just sooooo sad and horrific
May she rest in peace
His body language screams guilty. An innocent person would have some sort of emotion, especially during this testimony.
His body language is pretty much neutral, I don’t think we can draw many conclusions from it. I do think he’s guilty, but not from his body language
You can't show emotion in court the lawyers hammer that home to you
One thing that drives me crazy is police and fire sit there and talk to someone rather than getting to the person QUICK where every minute can mean life or death. I can't help but watch this crap and think GET TO HER quit asking questions!!!!!
You realize that dispatchers send police/fire/rescue out as they're talking to the caller. They're trying to get more information from them, so they can update whoever is responding to the call. They don't wait until they're done talking to you, hang up, and respond to the call themselves.
You will be relieved to know they actually dispatch the responders immediately, but the dispatcher keeps the caller on the line to get more information, etc., after the responders are on the way.
Did they not use an AED? Thready pulse!
Yeah, I have seen this too. I’m so confused. Get her help!
@@UKJphilosophy you have to have a rapid pulse for AED to work.
Male Entitlement is what this culprit had.
I wish they would show the footage, even if they blur aspects of it. It helps to demonstrate, expose, and flesh out the ENTIRE story instead of people's imaginations getting carried away with self-created images and interpretations.
He was tipped off as to her location based on a police report telling where he could not go according to the order of protection. I hope there is a lesson learned from this with regards to disclosing a victim's location. He may never have found her otherwise.
For that very reason I couldn't file a restraining order against my stalking ex. It would have given him legal notice of every place I went: my children's school, my church, the supermarket I shopped at and the place I was hiding. His due process rights were honored over the rights of my children and myself to ordinary safety.
Where did you see that ? There was no protection order out on him at the time.
I’m SO SORRY for this victim’s senseless loss of life...I cannot imagine what her friends and family are going through, having lost such a beautiful soul...Also, my heart goes out to the first responders who have to see what human nature is capable of every hour of every day...
On a side note: do you think the germs have figured out how to GO AROUND that partition yet??...They must be pretty confused about WHO they CAN, and CAN’T, jump on...I’m pretty confused about it myself...
“Carted her to Cedars” This lawyer is talking about the victim as if she was a chunk of meat.
Your own defense lawyer says you broke in and had a fight with the deceased jumps to get away.. you're going to jail.
Would rather look a the judge
Did the state do a psych evaluation on him? Did he submit his phone records? Did they inspect his home and pc? There has to be massive amounts of obsessive evidence.
Exactly! Amie claimed that he was harassing her on fake accounts, she was suspicious he was stalking her even before the event they both showed up to. They need to look into this.
@@julief634 Speaking of fake accounts, there are lots of them at every RUclips post of this trial. The vicious misogynist homophobic comments in the "replies" section blasting her supporters are almost all fake accounts with no content or followers, they are ROBOTROLLS
I think the meeting after how many years was planned as well. Very sure. They should confiscate everything for sure they'll find that he's been planning this all along. There's a motive.
He’s just looking down the whole time? What a coward…face what you did!
It's incredible his lack of emotion! Even if she was a casual acquaintance, you'd think he'd show some response!
Why? He killed her.
She was not a casual appointments of his. They dated for a year back in 2010. He was abusive to her. And then stalked her for years after. Definitely not a casual acquaintance. They were in a serious relationship for a while in 2010 and 2011
Where's the coroner's testimony?
A man that's crying on the phone and psycho like him should of started taking the meds he's on now during his life. Cause he is clearly medicated.
Yes! 💯
26 minutes and no ambulance even having arrived? So extremely slow. What is wrong with them???
You can hear her gasps on the audio! Omg this is heart breaking 😢😢😢😢
Well the dispatcher didn't no she had been tossed off the balcony yet. She was told she was hearing thumping noises. His attorney needs to sit her ass down and I hope she doesn't have any daughters that this could happen to or family members or her? Shame on her for trying to save this monsters ass.
Makes you wonder how she can sleep at night doesn’t it
@@suemount6042yes absolutely how they sleep at night amazes me
😂🙄 you buggin, take a seat with his attorney
Lol that's called a job dummy
Excellent witness
His attorney is looking like such an a hole in front of the jury
Brilliant testimony on the part of the first responder though
What a sick fuq. He clearly feels no remorse
It drives me crazy that the defedant is reading throughout this entire trial. Why is he allowed to read and not forced to pay attention to the trial? He just keeps his head down and shows little to no reguard for the case. Why is he allowed to do this?
Hello from Florida
RIP Amie ❤
Why are they dragging the roommate so hard? Good Lord. He had no significant weapons and no phone. Plus he was terrified and in shock
That ambulance was slow
Death penalty .. hope he never sees the light again , nonchalant evil monster 😞
fire fighters are so well trained and special. Gareth is so mean he deserves to stay in prison for the rest of his life he seems to get pleasure out of hearing how the firefighters fought for her because he knew before they ever did that she would die.
Why are we wasting one breath of air on this discussing person.
Disgusting
What a truly vile and abhorrent individual this creature is.
I hope the full force of the law comes down on him.
It sickens me that he gets to re-live his disgusting act watching those videos. No remorse, doesn’t care that he will never get out.
He seems VERY interested in the videos.
Does this vile monster ever look up during this trial ? She was such a beautiful woman who didn't deserve to be murdered simply because she didn't want to be in a relationship with him and can you blame her !
People are nuts
I think he enjoys reliving it the sicko
You can see him smirking while the video of her mangled body plays.
Took long time for ambulance to get there
He is almost catatonic in his non responsive behaviour No emotions indicates what a cruel deeply disturbed mind he has
He was joking around with friends when they visited him in jail.
He’s acting. He’s not catatonic at all.
The murderer is full of self-pitty.
Death penalty period
I say this too and i get banned form youtube.
Rip Amy 😢
Apparently jail food isn't that bad, he seems to have his appetite back
seems like the defense attorney was suggesting that the care given was very slow. which one could assume they were implying that critical care was not given,.
Another psycho killer boyfriend.
A lot of them in the "good ol" usa
4:21 she had a pulse she was fighting still.
Random clip that starts in the middle if testimony. Greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat 😕
so glad he is finally getting put away with accuracy.
The victim was a kind hearted person, just by the fact that she gave this slug any of her time in the first place. Sorry, but not really that sorry, he just reminds me of a human who lives in his grandmothers basement, for like ever.. at least prison will look the same.
I look forward to this POS getting what's owed to him!!!! Justice for Amie!!!!!!!!
