Thank you for finally sharing an episode about her.
Does not matter what law comes out, You can never predict a sick person.
Thank you for sharing
😊
😅
"We don't know who initiated the physical confrontation." HE did when BREAKING into her house. End of story.
This story is frightening because it not only shows how capable and unpredictable people are and can be but also how you really don't know people's dark side you only see the side they want you to see and by the time you find out about the dark side many times it's too late, it seems many men today have 0 regard for women and think nothing of harming or killing them, these are very frightening times in which we live.
And even long before with the stalking. Stalkers violate boundaries and often have angry violent fantasies.
Once he broke in on her private property he initiated the offense. Anything she does is in defense, absolutely. Doesn't it just make you angry how much they will try to twist the law sometimes, just to help a criminal.
This ! ❤
This is so true, any normal person at an extreme would probably try to meet up during the day even if it means having to wait outside their workplace. Not break in to the house and wait inside with a nicotine syringe.
His defense of "she attacked me" is laughable, YOU broke into HER house and WAITED FOR HER TO COME HOME. Of course she attacked you, she was defending herself!
These defense lawyers makes me wonder sometimes. The level of stupidity is insulting to good lawyers
@@rushellelewars9432 And to juries too.
The fact they basically said "look how she took a photo on that railing, that basically means she's an acrobat" is the most moronic defense I've ever heard
Agree 💯
This😅 the nerve of that 😢
She hit the jackpot by being adopted by such wonderful people.
They hit the jackpot too, getting such a brilliant lively daughter
I noticed the way they focussed on her strength, it’s the ultimate f you to her murderer. Smart, noble people.
@@deeseeses4716 They really loved her!
@@ki2000ki not biting. All the best tho! 👋
@@ki2000ki what’s wrong with you? Such a Sickening comment from a person who has no life !
"I broke into her house and she attacked me. She fell off the balcony while fighting me in her own house I broke in to." Great defense!
The defense just needs to put something out there and follows what their clients tells them
It's just mind blowing an ex from a decade ago comes and kills you. You haven't moved on,fool??!
Just shocking
I was wondering on that too.
The relationship ended badly obviously and she got out and away as far as she could. It probably left him broken and taking years to get somewhat back on his feet. And because of all that, i think he loved her still, but also resented her, for what she did. And turned into an obsession. Love often is an obsession. It seems seeing her again triggered the difference in how they proceeded from that breakup, with her being succesfull and him not so (it seems).
Even the pictures say a lot, bc the ones from back then, he looks good, but the ones later, show he went downhill. (if those pictures are indeed from those different times).
It may be that she was not such a saint as they try to portray in the video.
How about the guy she was with, the comedian (another one) that she would marry, got on tv, then decided she was too much in the picture.
You cant decide that before you go on tv? You can also marry someone that is regularly on tv, and remain in the shadows.
Also, wrt that, this guy is in his 50ies and not a looker. While she is attractive, so could it be she used this guy to actually get in the spotlight and then afterwards came with the reason "too much publicity so breakup' ?
It makes no sense otherwise. Bc if you love someone, are engaged, but you dont want to be in the spotlight, then dont be in the spotlight. Its no reason to breakup.
It may very well be she used people to advance her carreer. And that behavior, combined with 'love' leaves victims. Not everyone takes that well.
@@StofStuiver whatever she's done, she's not worth him sitting in prison on his own doing. He didn't snap,he planned this. At what point do you stop and think? Now he's in there forever. Personally,my pride won't allow me to want anyone who don't want me. And I'm certainly not doing time for anyone whose only crime is they don't want me! This man had a decade to either seek therapy or strong willed himself to move on. He chose weakness.
@@haddingtoniangcp2464 He probably realises now that it wasnt the right thing to do.
I wouldnt call it choosing weakness, or even weakness, but he sure made the wrong decision. And he did nobody a favor in doing what he did. Including himself indeed.
Amazing indeed that after a decade he still was obsessed with her. I understand it may be hard seeing her again, with her successfull and him not so, but as soon as you feel negative things there, you should leave. Instead he let it rip open old wounds.
God knows why.
@@StofStuiver it is weakness as he allowed his weak side to lead him to her property. After a decade. He is wesk for knowing he needs help and not get one. Listen,we've all been dumped and it hurts as hell. What the majority of us won't do is put up our freedom over it. No,we moved on to someone who wants us. This idiot chose not to. Now he's state property for life.
she not only had a beautiful face, but it’s evident that she was a beautiful person & her parents are beautiful people, too. I’m so sorry for your loss. ❤
She is so beautiful like Snow White and just seems to be just as beautiful on the inside I can’t imagine what her loved ones are feeling
Im not impressed with this kind of therapists or the entire psych sector. They do more bad than good for society.
Ill leave it at that, bc expanding on that will get my comments banned aswell. That should give you an idea.
I actually posted a comment on the parents (before reading this) so I totally agree!
Yeah she was really a beauty.
Im not impressed with this kind of therapists or the entire psych sector. They do more bad than good for society
What an evil man. Threw her over the balcony while she was alive but barely conscious. Glad the jury got the verdict right. Soo sad for her roommate that heard it all.
I hope for her sake she was unconscious 😞 absolutely sickening and vile way to be taken
I don’t you have a cell phone with you!? 🤦🏽♀️
Yep very evil guy. i remember they reported she was also still alive for a few minutes after thrown off the balcony. I can’t imagine the horror she went through. So sad. This case never left me since I saw it first time on the news years back.
I can sincerely say that I would've found anything in the house to help my roommate. There's no way I could live with myself knowing that I ran away hearing my friend being mųrdęręd. Amie was probably even more terrified thinking that no one came to help while she was screaming and fighting. Truly heartbreaking.
@@Isnt_She_Lovely_ Yep agree. I thought the same thing. Her roommate should of ran upstairs to help her. If he ran out of the house to the neighbor, than he must of really got scared by loud noises n screams. There was no time to go to the neighbor though, and he could of saved her life in those few moments. But everyone reacts differently to panic n fear so not blaming him.
Her parents seem like absolutely wonderful people; I am so sorry for their unimaginable loss.
I couldn't imagine the horror she must've felt walking into her room to find her worst nightmare lying in wait for her.
Ikr 😢
Imagine her hearing her room mate yelling her name and feeling like YES I’M GOING TO BE SAVED than suddenly the feeling she felt when he didn’t come to her rescue ☹️
She rented out to him for rent free after the run in with her ex, the murderer. He was asked to help her in the exact same situation . But this guy ran and jumped as fast as he could, didn’t bother to take his phone or keys.
@@whartonitec1041 What a coward. So sad. Such a beautiful woman. People are so sick. Just move on.
Out of all things, he was lying in her bed waiting for her to get home. Unbelievable that defense claimed that she attacked him, are you kidding me?
People judging the roommate's reaction instead of the real narcissist is disturbing. One thing for sure, people react differently when in shock
Of course, her ex is definitely to blame, but that doesn't negate the fact that the roommate ran away like a little b.
And Low T is a killer. Pathetic!
His whole explanation seems totally suspicious to me. I would not be surprised if it comes out, at some point, that he was involved
Fight, flight, or freeze is not just a saying. It's literally what happens to people in life or death scenarios. People have no control over those instincts. He called for help and did what he could. He likely could have died, as well, if he went up there. And if her parents think he did the right thing, no one else' opinion matters.
@@nbarnes6225 Real men fight. They don’t freeze or run. They protect!
Something small, but I love how her parents fell in love with the music she loved. Speaks a lot about where Amiee's compassion came from. Rest well angel..
These two parents raised an exceptional young woman. She left knowing that the two people who raised her were exceptional parents,and she had comfort in knowing that they loved her so much.
she put HERSELF in harms way and high risk with her lifestyle.....what a shame...
Very sweet comment and well said user gx❤
@@trh1493 She was a therapist, not snorting coke on the back of a tiger shark.
@@trh1493world's worst comment.
somewhat doubt that any of that was a comfort to her as she was being choked and thrown off the balcony. But yes her parents did love her very much and are amazing humans.
The cops missed THAT broken window??!?! 😂
Keystone cops 😂😂
I know that’s what I thought. And probably wrecked the crime scene
They are not sending their best and brightest. Smh
Like make it make sense smh
i knowww
Why does it matter if he intended on killing her? He assaulted her in the past, broke into her house and now she’s dead.
THAT IS IT!!! YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!!
Because they have to decide what they're going to charge him with.
@SolidNiss: Because intended means it was premeditated.
I mean : he took a syringe full of liquid nicotine with him... what do you think he intended to do with it ?
It's proven beyond a reasonable doubt this was premeditated, organized, intentional homicide.
Matters for prosecution and punishment
You can tell by the way the parents speak about their daughter just how proud they were and still are of her. What a tragic outcome. May she rest in peace!
She must have been terrified. People who have not experienced stalking and being the object of someones obsession have no idea how awful it is.
I Can only imagine
I’ve got defensive knife wound scars on my left hand and left shoulder because of it. Our system is set up so that nothing is done until it’s too late.
It is a nightmare
The defense lawyer KNOWS he sounds stupid giving that defense. I hope he rots in jail.
He has to come up with something...that is his job..may the murderer rot in jail...not the defense
@Williamb612 Given the defense attorney isn't the one headed to jail, it's safe to assume they meant the murderer. And granted the defense has a job to do, but the argument he went with is disgusting and he had a choice in the matter.
That's what they do, it's a job but he's not held personally for anything. He knows that client is a nut.
It’s his job.
You know he was cursing whomever assigned him the case. And yes it's his job.
As a woman, I find myself feeling safer and more peaceful when I'm single. ❤
As a man I also do!
This was a ex from 10 years ago...
😢yes, we cannot control our partner's mind
As a good man I’m sorry you feel that way. Don’t give up we are still out here !
I feel the same.
So it’s suspicious not to have your keys after you ran away from an intruder to save your own life. We need better trained investigators.
Police don't know assailants from innocents at a crime scene. Everyone's eyeballed until evidence proves them to look elsewhere.
She was absolutely stunning! I love that she got her parents into heavy metal music and how supportive they were of her. What a beautiful life and family!!!
I really hate the idea that a restraining order would stop these assaults. It’s only a piece of paper and one rarely acted upon even by the victims.
People don’t get that criminals don’t care about paper and laws - they’re going to do what they want whether that means violating a restraining order or carrying a gun when it’s illegal.
Which proves our constitution is correct that citizens have the right to bare arms. Women should own & know how to use a small gun.
@@andreaberryhill6654 I couldn't agree more. However in this case Pursehouse was waiting for her in her own bed. She needed a surveillance camera covering all windows and doors to her apartment.Mace on a keychain is good for self defense as well.
@@andreaberryhill6654 But with a restraining order you cannot purchase a gun here in California. So I don't agree with parents saying that restraining orders shouldn't expire. We tried to purchase another gun and we were denied due to a restraining order we didn't know about from our psycho racist neighbor. So not only did we lose 20% restocking fee ($300), we scheduled a hearing about the restraining order and showed the judge that our ring cameras showed no one serving us at the time the neighbor claimed they did. So we couldn't purchase a gun for 2 years and we were legally suppose to surrender all our guns and amo (which we didn't).
@@SidewaysInTrafficThat is awful. Some states are more restrictive, yet are often the ones with more crime. Sorry you went through that.
I knew that the LADP were incompetent, but they had at least SIX police officers on scene and they didn't find the point of entry until 7 hours later during the day time? There was shattered glass leaving a 2ft by 2ft hole on the main floor?
they aren’t the brightest

"The grieving never ends. It evolves."
such an eloquent statement.
@@Dana9437 Some how it seems more apt for tragedies like this rather than using some sort of iteration of bringing closure.
People need to stop blaming the roommate. Watch the trail. The roommate has an injury and was fearful for his life. He spoke during the trial that the violence that he heard made him think that he would not survive it and they’d both be dead without anyone knowing. The misogyny and femicide in this case is horrific. Nothing was going to stop this obsessed (I’m not typing his name) psychopath. I’m so thankful that the roommate didn’t investigate the sound he heard. He’d probably be dead. Watch the trial. It’s heartbreaking. Amy did everything - everything - right. The fault is on the perpetrator.
Agree totally. You can't blame someone for assessing their ability to help. He didn't fail her, he ran and did all he could to raise the alarm. He stayed there until the police came. For all we know, it took all his strength not to run far away. Going blindly into battle and giving yourself up for another person is a story we all like to hear, but it's not realistic. Keeping your wits about you and doing the sensible thing is just as right.
That's bull... any number of heavy objects would stop the mad man.. he's focused on her and committing his crime... grab a knife a bat and whamo. I could never live with myself if I stood by. And allowd a friend to die.
I am sorry he was a coward, I definitely would've run upstairs to help my friend, so there is no excuse 😢
Well said I would've done thesame what a coward
@@lsdarius8702could yes, but remember, what if he had been killed too, it would have taken more time, to get this guy. It’s either fight or flight, it’s an primal reaction, and it’s not his fault.
Cried my eyes out at the end of this episode when her mom says if she could say one more thing to her, she’d tell her she loves her once more. 🥺😢💔
Gotta give this one a like.
The parents really got to me on this episode. They really loved her.
@@frightenedrabbitfan it was so hard to watch both of her parents during this entire episode. Like I said I cried at the end 😭😭😭
A great mom!
It's the dad that got be bawling 😢
I don’t know how these defense attorneys can sleep at night. 🤦♀️
They have the conscience of a worm 🪱
I think sometimes they know their client is going away for life, and just putting on a show. This man studied law for 8 years , you really think he didn’t think that defense was ridiculous? They gave the jury the most ridiculous situation, but they have to do their job.
They have a job to do 🤦🏻♀️
Same question😢😢
@@liv4514 The problem I have with the "they have a job to do" part is they will twist the truth and lie which is not supposed to be allowed in court, only the truth. Defendants deserve a fair trial, a FAIR trial. Not "any means necessary to get them off".
Those are the types of defense lawyers that make me wonder, how do they sleep at night? Truly.
It’s their job. It’s not easy for them at times either. It’s a paycheck…. :/ some do truly suck though. But many are just hired and/or appointed bc they have to do a certain amount of pro bono cases as a criminal lawyer. And they get reputations as defense attorneys just bc they’re good at making a story for their defendant and/or plead down their sentences or avoid death. It’s all politics and money when it comes to it with our justice system.
She seemed like such a warm spirited kind-hearted lady, she was making a difference in the world, it's really saddening that she ever crossed paths with that guy.
Horrifying story. One small but consistent thing I've noticed across a lot of these episodes is the bad attitude the dispatchers and police give people who are panicked or in distress and a lack of urgency by the first cops on scene, not to mention gross incompetence. It's frusturating to watch. Police need more training, humility, and humanity.
Exactly. The criminal justice system needs to change a lot more
Got that right.
Another youtube expert 😂
"lack of urgency" > You arguing that it would be a good thing that if someone is panicked and in distress, police should just storm in?
Ever heard of people on drugs? People with disorders? People playing hoaxes?
Its going to be extremely messy if police immediately storm into someones home, without first establishing what is going on.
There is plenty to improve on and im usually attacked when i point something out, but the thing i mention here in reaction is not something you want changed.
Yes the way dispatchers talk on all these recordings is so cringey. Are they trained to sound that way? For people in an emergency, I think it would be so frustrating
“She’s comfortable with a balcony railing”…that is the biggest stretch for a defense I think I’ve ever heard…
Also “we don’t know who attacked who first”…HE BROKE INTO HER HOME.
This loser should've just plead guilty 😤 There was so much evidence that I couldn't even begin to understand why the jury took more than an hour to find this psychopath guilty!
For real ,I guess defense attorneys have to come up with some kind of defense but I can't stand the victim blaming defense ,it's disgustingand seeing it in so many trials with defense attorneys attacking victims ,it's made me dislike defense attorneys .I know they have a job to do but some r totally disgusting in how they go about defending the indefensible .@@elenaarman-tang7811

She didn't fell for 9 years after they broke up but conveniently fell on the 10th year when he showed up on 2/15
When I first saw Amie and her parents, I thought “what a beautiful combination of her Mom and Dad! She looks so much like them both”…….then they said she was adopted! Never would have guessed. GOD Bless her parents, they gave her a wonderful life, they raised an amazing and incredible Daughter. 💖🙏💖
I thought the exact same thing!
Her parents are so precious ❤😢
My wife, women in my life, exgirlfriends have made me very angry sometimes in my life. I never thought even once, not even a fleeting thought, of physically hurting any of them. I just dont understand these guys at all.
I agree. It's so weird that some men can be treated by women repeatedly like trash, but have no intention to do them harm at all, and then other men have women who gently, kindly and respectfully indicate that they are moving on, and a man just can't cope with that. I wonder what is so different in these guys upbringing that influences them to behave like this.
@@ianclose123 I don't know. I wonder too. I have been broken up with and have had my heart broken may times as a younger man. a couple of tough ones too. I'm 48 now. I also never thought of hanging around a woman that didn't want me around them. I guess some men aren't built that way?
@@ianclose123They're the minority. The type of people like the man writing the comment above are the majority.
@@jameysummers1577 I lost absolutely everything in a divorce to someone I was still convinced I adored. Over time I just came to the realisation that the person I cared for had effectively ceased to exist. For a short time my life seemed ruined but even at the worst of that time I never once thought of doing them harm. Doing myself harm, maybe, but never them even when I hated them. It's such an alien mentality to me.
@@redacted2275 oh I agree. Many relationships fail everyday and there are millions if not billions of men who never wish their ex-partner harm. I think that is why I'm so fascinated with what must cause it. In a world full of men who want to claim to be "Alpha" or "Sigma", why let the loss of one woman affect them so much? There is no bigger loser than the loser who just won't accept that they lost.
1. Amy’s mom is a badass in suburban mom costume. Love her.
2. His defense wanted him to lose. What was that speech about how her death was his fault?! Thank you, defense attorney!!
3. Amy was beautiful 😍
4. I’m so sorry for this family. RIP Amy 🕊️
The defense attorney blamed it on HER, not him. He said it was because she attacked him.
She really was beautiful. Her face is super symmetrical.
U got the second point wrong. The defence attorney tried to pin the blame of her death on herself.
@@MJ-ji6mv 🤷🏾♀️ read it how you read it but before he finally blamed her he said a lot about how she would’ve never died if he weren’t there, how he was wrong for laying in wait, etc. of course the defense had to put the weight of it back on the victim because that’s literally their job but the prelude to that was damning & a good attorney would never admit those things at allllll. AT ALL! Instead they would try to distract from any of that.
@@maryanne7161 I guarantee you, the jury only heard “it’s his fault she’s dead.” Why on earth a defense attorney would ever say such a sentence is beyond me, but I’m grateful he did!
I love how they missed the broken window for that long
She was a beauty!!! I hate that her life ended as a young woman, and knowing that she died so horribly. Such a tremendous loss. My condolences to all who loved her.
I love her parents! Im super impressed with their ease and love. Great people!!!
Especially the mom, you can tell she lets gratitude guide her, rather than entitlement.
I've been in a situation when someone threw a chair through in the porch window of my downstairs neighbor in a converted house apartment just like this. No one was home downstairs, but someone was trying to break in. I went from being in my sleep clothes and half-asleep watching TV, to a huge BOOM and glass crashing just feet below me. You just have no idea how much your body goes into involuntary shock when you realize in an instant there's someone in your home who's dangerous and violent. I felt just like the roommate in this video. You are in complete adrenaline overdrive and everything you do is so heightened. You go from sleepy to...life or death confrontation in seconds and it really shook me for a few days afterwards, and I'm an athletic guy who was in his 20s and a former athlete back then.
I was sleepy as I've read your comment. Instead of "sleep clothes" I was reading "sheep clothes" and it made no sense... After I struggled to be attentive I sae why... :))))
Besides, Amy, the actual victim of course, the poor roommate looking “suspicious” to the police…
Honestly - it sounds terrifying. Sorry you experienced that, I would have freaked out and gone on flight mode. Not saying I would win haha 😂
Not flight mode - I mean fight mode.
Even youre not sleeping, the shock of suddenly being thrown into a life or death situation has that nearly crippling effect (numb with fear - esp if you dont know what youre facing other than its deadly and youre unarmed) on most ppl. We all like to think we'd immediately have grabbed a bat or a knife and charged in there,, but the reality is different. Some would, knowing their female friend & roommate was being attacked w/o thinking twice abt it, but theyre definitely in the minority. The roommate has no reason to feel any guilt over his actions whatsoever. He had no idea what would happen and immediately sought help. Nothing bad that hap'd that night was his fault.
I wish she had trusted Drew with her frightening burden. She could have had personal bodyguards to sleep outside her door to protect her. RIP Aime this is so sad ❤.
Not only was Amie robbed of the life she thrived in, but the world was robbed of an intelligent, creative and compassionate woman.
Michael’s initial reactions were so genuine and heartbreaking, even though they clearly suspected him at first💔
I suspected him as well

@@Rockoblocko I'd like to see what you would do, because I highly doubt you'd do anything different.
This is why he killed her because she didn’t stop achieving her goals and moved forward. He took the ultimate step to stopped her achieving anything. He’s plain evil. This is a sad story but unfortunately this happens every second of everyday.
What? Step away from the Internet and go live real life... 🤦♂️
Exactly. They hate for you to keep climbing and growing after the break up... RIP Amie!
Yes, he couldn’t stand that she was so happy and successful. And she had a big presence on social media, so it was easy for him to keep up with her.
She’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. It’s always the most beautiful innocent people that get taken way too early …. Prayers to family and friends 💜🙏👍
And in part her beauty caused his obsession.
Her parents are so sweet and genuine. I wish I could give them both a big hug! ❤
It's chilling how obsessive people can get. Takes one meeting in a decade for him to go insane for her. If there's restraining orders against people, there should be forced treatment or something. What's the point to grant if they still wander around just as sick as they are.
Pleading not guilty and going to trial is more delusional than thinking he could win her back. The evidence is beyond overwhelming.
God bless all her friends who stood with her parents .That's unconditional ❤❤.
It baffles me why do someone want to be with someone who doesnt want to be with you. RIP

People, don't forget the parents of your friends. Drop them a line, say hello, let them know you care for them too. Even if it's just courtsy. As a parent, it's so reassuring to know good friends will be there for your kids when you are gone. The dad crying when he mentioned her friends made me cry too.

Same! Good morning from Beaverton, Oregon ☕🌅 😁
What a tragedy, she sounds like an amazing daughter, friend and therapist. I love her parents, very loving❤
That man is so dangerously disturbed, he refused to move on, what an awful person he is.
Michael went through a lot as well, from witnessing his dear friend being attacked and murdered, to being treated as a suspect himself. I pray for as much oeace as they can have behind something so tragic.
As an experienced psychotherapist of 20 years, I can say that in almost any scenario imaginable, you as a therapist would not confide in your client just because you have shared similar experienced. Your and your client are not friends, and your client is there to be heard, not to be burdened with your own issues. This is utterly basic, or at least it is here in the UK. Maybe not so much in the US?
Not supposed to do that in America either.
Her client said she was surprised that Amy didn't divulge her own stalking issues to her during therapy. So it's the client's misunderstanding and not Amy herself who was being unprofessional.
Yes, you are correct, except no one was being "unprofessional", it was just a comment the girl made about how PROFESSIONAL Amie actually WAS, in my opinion. @@Marlaina
She didn’t share it with her client
That’s very much how it is in the USA. They could easily loose licenses and job if certain ethical boundaries are crossed. By the modes accent I thought she was from the UK or maybe Aussie. Definitely not an American accent.
These cops so sure that it was heroin in that syringe. This is how tunnel vision on the part of investigators begins...
We all have hunches. If it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck we don't think readily think it's a common merganser. I'm sure 90% of the time they encounter heroin in needles, not liquid tobacco or orange juice. They still tested it to be certain, they didn't just guess and kick it to a storage locker.
I’m so sorry for this beautiful girl’s parents.
Including her first parents, her biological family. I hope they were told what happened. 😔
Such a sad story. What an absolutely beautiful woman. Rest in eternal peace Amie 🧡
This one has me crying tears of sadness for her family and friends. What a huge loss they have suffered?
And all of the patients that needed her help too? Heartbreaking on so many levels . . .
Me too. I don’t usually cry watching these episodes, but this was really got to me. The mother was just so sweet and loved Amie so much!
Parents seem to be really nice people.
As a domestic violence survivor myself this makes both sad and angry. Restraining orders don’t work. We have to protect our selves if that means getting a gun and learning how to use it. Better them than you. This problem is getting worse by the day. Some people are just psycho.
One of the saddest ones I’ve seen. Great job 48 team
My gosh she was absolutely stunning !! Rip sweet girl
I agree what a beauty. I know guys, myself included, have a harder time letting go of a relationship, especially if they're madly in love. I believe it to be a lot easier for women to move on from a relationship when they want to end it. Anyway that's my opinion, feel sorry for Amy, she was gorgeous
@@michaelbattye8960yeah because a woman can sleep with someone within a hour. Can take a man a long time to get something new.
This breaks my heart. He is such a COWARD!
Thank you for supporting Dr. Amie Harwick, her family and so many of her beautiful friends.
What you all are doing is so beautiful
If we all had parents like these two what a world it would be! RIP Amie …..🕊️ John 3:16
It is devastating that someone so determined to help others and to serve as a light in this world was taken out of it by such a sick and demented person. Amie was a breathtakingly beautiful person. Her family and friends quite clearly Love and adored her. I hope her Soul is in perfect Peace. 🖤
She gave advice she didn’t even follow. So 🤷🏼♀️
Michael Herman seems like such a decent guy, I really hope he can find peace.
This isn’t a movie, this is real life! No script, no heros with superpowers, no story arc to follow.
He didn’t know what was going on, or how many were up there with Amie.
He did the right thing in running for help. Suspect he would have lost his life if he’d intervened.
God bless that man.
Edited to add: Women shouldn’t NEED an effing war vet to live with them to be safe. Thats the whole point… anyone saying they’d “do better” has come here to make it about themselves… nobody f’n cares about you. A woman was killed. Show some respect and diffidence to her friends and survivors. It’s not a d*ck swinging contest.
Yes he’s constantly slandered and it’s pathetic.
Some people see it as he should've went in and protected her. I would've, but that's me. Who knows, maybe he'd even gotten the pretty girl and lived happily ever after with her. I would've given it a shot, even if it cost me a black eye or 2.... guaranteed
Exactly
*HEROES
@@truss6282lol it would have costed you, your life. All these men think they'd protect her. It's laughable.
She was beautiful and didn't deserve to ever meet that coward. May he enjoy his new home. Rih
I usually hold back crying, but as someone who has been through this before, it hit home. I was stalked for years and thanks to that I still have trouble sleeping every night. I was only 17 and making reports with police officers and only my mom knew, I was so ashamed for bringing this person into my life and now not knowing how to get rid of them. They would make fake profiles, and even fake emails pretending i would write to them, 3 different future girlfriends of my stalker would message me on Facebook calling me names that I was talking to their bf and it wasn’t even me but he would purposely pretend it was. The last straw was when he threatened to come into my home and take me with him and telling me he did not care who he had to take out if they tried to stop him. I ended up staying at a friends and hotels to avoid my family getting hurt. From there on I stopped having social media and never putting my full name on anything. It makes me so sad Amy probably felt this or worse with the fame and recognition she was getting. It breaks my heart her life was cut short because so many of us could have been in the same position and it’s not ok. Rip Amie❤
So incredibly sad! No one should have to live in fear like this! Especially when they've done nothing wrong!! Rest in Peace dear Amy.
'Amie'
Funny how people say why didn't he run to help her. How can you when you don't even know how many people are there and how armed they are. You can just get attacked by surprise and now you don't even have a chance to call the police. Good deal. It's easy to say ,,Oh, come on, go there and save her!" when in reality you freak out.
May Amie rest in peace. She didn't deserve this! 💔
literally, most of those comments are coming from men. acting like they wouldn’t run. thinking they’d be some knight in shining armour this is real life not a movie 🤦🏼♀️
For real. Easy to post a comment from the safety of your bed when the reality is so different and if they go through this, most likely act the same. 💁♀️
@@oliwia2104ikr??
they watched too many hero movies
A bunch of bs. That man could've done any and everything to help that woman. He was useless and cowardly.
So heart wrenching. May Amie rest in peace and may her parents and loved ones be comforted
I love how the "model" makes it all about her and regards the therapist's professionalism and discretion as betrayal.
It‘s heartbreaking! All prayers to her parents.
Having finally broken free from a 20 yr abusive marriage in 2020, this saddens my heart so much and kinda frightens me because, though I have worked so hard to overcome the fear, he just bought a house half a mile down the road from me! Praying for those closest to Amie who have lost a special light in their lives. 🙏🏼
I’m proud of you for being able to leave, but that is the most dangerous time. Make sure you create a safety plan and have a support system in place for an emergency. If you call your local domestic violence shelter they will help you do that for free.
he was a typical abuser/murderer, a coward. their victims face their death with courage and fight for their lives and when faced with having to pay for what they have done, they deny, deny. to scared to face the consequences of their monstrous act. RIP Amie.
Wow, she was absolutely gorgeous & intelligent.
Im surprised defense didn’t say Amy broke into her own house then after attacking her coward ex she then jumped off her balcony.
I watched this again he turned from a chippendale to a murderer to a pig
RIP 💜 AMIE😢
What an absolute tragedy. Only the good die young. Her parents raised beautiful children and she hit the jackpot having such loving parents adopt her. Rest In Sweetest Peace Amie🕊️
He was abusive and she tried getting away from him so sad. I think women need to shout it from the hills tell everyone. Don’t suffer in silence! Sad story .. So beautiful! r.i.p.
I just found myself here , I'll watch it later , thanks for the new episode
lol they don't care.
@@soupnfresh who?
Everyone. Even the person in charge of uploading the video onto youtube doesn't care.
@@soupnfresh yeah I know, is that a problem?
Obviously for you it's a problem since they don't care.
Such a tragedy. This beautiful, beautiful soul. May she rest in peace. ❤️
She could have done so much good for the world, it’s very heartbreaking. 💔
This one is just heartbreaking. Thoughts go out to Amie’s family and friends.
Restraining orders do not deter. Cops don't stop crime. They just show up after the fact. That's why a woman should have a firearm.
I wholeheartedly agree, I know a lot of women don’t agree but sometimes that is the only way.
this wouldn't have happened this way if her or her roommate had real protection. That's the sad part. He wouldn't have had to run away and leave her to get help.
Agree. She should have bought something better than pepper spray.
Okay so you walk into your room and see an intruder. How long would it take for you to pull out the gun, and how long would it take for him to get to you? Or are you supposed to walk into your bedroom like a cop, guns blazing😂
48 Hours, always delivers. The intro scenes combined with that music are classic now. I enjoy watching to find out how these cases are solved. Every case involving someone's death is heartbreaking but their life deserves to be recognized and remembered and their family and friends deserve to see justice done for the person(s) responsible for taking that life away. ⚖️
Thanks for this angle on this tragedy. Great reporting.
Started watching it 48 minutes after upload 😂
This same thing just happened to a woman in Somerville NJ. How can we keep ourselves safe?
Gun equals things out they say.
Holding boys and men accountable, the first time, every time they violate a female.
Poor Michael, unless you are in that position you can't judge, there's nothing he could have done to save her life when the murderer was there and intent on murdering her!
You know this how?
@@Theaddora what exactly?
What a great relief for me. Thanks for sharing.
The video where she says stalking can get you killed is so disquieting given what happened to her…
Been waiting for this episode!! 😊 Many thanks 🙏🏻
What beautiful parents! I hope and pray they are doing ok❤❤❤
Her parents seem like such wonderful people. My heart breaks for them.
Another beautiful and brilliant woman's life cut short because of a loser. RIP Dr. Amie Harwick.
Be careful with the woke rhetoric... That's also stuff for losers.
Brilliant? She gave advice on a subject she was horribly bad at, and was addicted to attention in every way. I know some truly brilliant women in academia. Only in California would this person be taken seriously at all.
Whether she was good at her job or not, she was still a good person and didn't deserve to be killed. Your comment is so inappropriate.@@timothywilliams1359
She probably shouldn’t of tried to sleep her way to the top either. No one will convince me she LOVED Drew carey. She seen him as a step ladder and karma hit her
@@timothywilliams1359I hate to say it but I agree with you.
