Original subtitles

[Tunisia Offray] Hollywood romances are usually like fairy tales, right?

It's all about the aesthetic, what a person looks like.

Who they are, who they know.

It's almost like a Cinderella story.

You meet your Prince Charming...

...and we don't pay attention to other people that may harm them.

[Ro] I think that she probably knew that he was dangerous to a point,

but she didn't think he'd go that far over the edge.

[Maricela] It's the Hollywood dream...

...turned into a nightmare.

[Robert] She was actually obsessed with famous Hollywood murders,

and now she had become a famous Hollywood murder.

Amie Harwick was adopted when she was a baby.

Her adopted parents gave her free reign.

They let her be who she wanted to be and she was.

She was Amie through and through, one hundred percent.

In the small town like Lansdale, Pennsylvania, she was unique.

She was into heavy metal, she wore dark make-up, dark clothes.

And so, we've had conversations about her coming to L.A.

because of feeling like she needed to get out of there to expand and grow.

[Azari] As a criminal defense attorney in Los Angeles

with nearly 20 years practicing in the criminal justice system

as a trial lawyer, I was fascinated by this case.

I was also very fascinated by Harwick.

Amie was a sort of colorful, vibrant young woman,

dressed to the nine, and she was very much

involved in that L.A. scene, the Hollywood scene.

She would be seen at Hollywood parties.

[Robert] First time I met Amie Harwick was at a pool party.

I thought, "Wow, this woman is absolutely gorgeous."

It was, like, midnight, and I walked into the kitchen,

and she was standing in there in high heels and bikini.

And, uh, she said, "Oh, I'm just stopping by, I'm on my way to work."

And I said, "What? Where do you work?"

And, "You're not here for the pool party?"

And she said, "Oh, I'm a go-go dancer."

Most of the people that you meet in LA

wanna be actors, and, uh, that was not the case with Amie.

She was go-go dancing as a side job.

She was in school to become a family therapist at the time.

[Maricela] She was non-stop working.

She's a hustler.

You look up "hustla," you know, "hustler," in the dictionary,

and there's Amie, "Hey!"

When she first got out here, she was in a lot of videos.

[Robert] She was doing a lot of professional modeling for clothing companies...

...uh, shoe companies...

...catalogue modeling...

...fire performing.

[Maricela] The Playboy Mansion would hire her a lot for fire eating.

I'd stand next to her with all the fire safety, put out her torches,

um, watch her singe her eyebrows here and there.

Just singe her hair off.

[Robert] All the way through her doctorate, paid for everything, cash.

Amie had a Masters in clinical psychology

which she got from Pepperdine, and then she got a PhD.

[woman] Dr. Amie Harwick.

-Very much a renaissance woman. -Right.

Got my graduate degree, I'm gonna go for my PhD later.

I'm gonna do everything I wanna do and...

Dr. Amie Harwick's relationship history

was very much ironic considering that she was a marriage therapist.

She had relationships with men that, some were high profile.

[Maricela] Crispin Glover.

Marilyn Manson.

Dave Navarro.

But she also had relationships that were deeply troubled.

And it's something that she never really shared

completely openly with her close friends.

[Rudy] Gareth is a photographer,

and a self-taught coding wizard, I guess.

He's a computer guy.

I am also a photographer by trade,

and we were actually friends,

I met him about the same time that I met Amie.

We used to have some of the same clients.

Gareth ran the photography team.

Amie was one of the model girls.

[Maricela] Gareth wanted to be a comedian.

He just had this horrible sense of humor,

and after I saw that, like he did a stand-up thing...

...I understood, like, he was always trying to be that funny,

and it just never came across funny.

Um...

And Amie, who was very outgoing,

had a lot of friends, and a lot of male friends.

He was very, like, suspicious of them all.

[Maricela] If there was a guy around,

all of the sudden, he'd just grab her and start making out with her,

like, tongue kissing, and she'd be, like, trying to pull away.

And he's like, just... because he wanted to make sure everybody knew, "She's mine."

"Hello, I'm marking my territory."

And it was just creepy.

They only dated for maybe a couple years.

And they lived together.

When they broke up, he used to ask me to, like, send her messages,

or send her links to, uh, sappy songs.

And I'd be like, like, "No, dude, you gotta let it go,

like, you gotta move on, and..."

He just wouldn't take no for an answer.

She eventually got a restraining order against him.

[Offray] My years of being in this industry,

I would say, 20 years, working with domestic violence victims,

and also perpetrators, and I also have lived experience.

When Amie finally said, you know, "I had enough,"

she realized that there was no fixing this.

I think she believed that that would be the end of the relationship.

But that only began his obsession for her.

2012, she had applied to work in a prison,

but what happened during that process

was a guy sent nude photos to the prison of Amie

that she had shot for Playboy some years prior,

and basically got her to lose that job.

She was extremely upset about it.

[Maricela] She thought her career was over at that point,

and we discussed, like, what she can do,

because she was going through a real tremendous depression after that,

because she just went through all these years of schooling.

I don't know how I jokingly suggested,

"Well, maybe you can get into sex therapy now."

And she took that and ran with it.

There are a lot of women that do some type of sex work

that later on have problems with their careers

and it made her want to help those people.

So, she decided to actually get her next degree in human sexuality,

and it was this attempt to sabotage her career

that she used to build a much bigger career.

We have the book right here, it's The New Sex Bible for Women.

and, uh, I shot all the pictures, and Amie wrote it.

In most parts of this country, if you set up a practice as a sex therapist,

you may not have any business.

But for Amie, being in Los Angeles and working in Hollywood,

she had a great base in L.A.

[Robert] She played herself as a therapist giving therapy to her client on TV shows.

Amie was on Addicted to Sexting.

She was often quoted in magazines.

She was pretty well established as a therapist

and had the ear of a lot of different people,

uh, a lot of different media.

It was a bit challenging for Amie to be a sex therapist

and be as beautiful as she was.

I know that she did had some problems with some obsessive clientele

that were probably mainly there to see Amie

'cause she was gorgeous, and not Amie the therapist,

who can really help them with their issues.

During the time that Amie was dating Marilyn Manson,

it was her birthday...

[cheering]

[Robert] ...and she said, "Marilyn Manson is supposed to take me to dinner

at, like, 6 o'clock." And I said,

"That's not gonna happen. I don't think he gets out of bed before 6 o'clock."

She said, "Well, I did tell him that if he did not meet me

on my birthday, that I'm gonna go to a party,

and I'm gonna have a great time without him."

And, uh, at that party, she met Drew.

She said, "Oh, yeah, my boyfriend, you know, stood me up."

And he said, "Oh, you know, you should

hang out with people that aren't gonna stand you up on your birthday.

So, how about we, uh, we go out next week? I'll take you to Disneyland."

She said she laughed so hard, and she just had such a great time.

Two weeks later, Drew took ten of us to Disneyland

and that's when I met him for the first time.

And we were walking through the park,

and he said to me, "I'm gonna marry her."

She moved in with him not long after they were together.

Eventually, he proposed to her in Paris.

And that began the engagement.

Well, let me give you some back story that's unknown.

So, when Amie and Drew were engaged,

they were... kinda keeping it on the DL for a bit.

But what was happening was Amie was being sort of cyber-stalked

by a girl who had been a former friend.

This person was posting things about her that were not true on various websites.

The National Enquirer came and said,

"Hey, we're gonna run some stories about your relationship."

And it had a lot of untruths.

And Amie just didn't want any more negative information,

that wasn't even true, to come out.

So, they agreed to give an exclusive scoop to the National Enquirer,

under duress, I will say, that they were engaged.

And so after that, they decided to then come out on The Price is Right

on Valentine's Day and talk about the engagement.

I'd like to introduce you to my brand-new, lovely fiance, Amie.

How you doing, Amie?

Dating in the spotlight brings you access.

Access to the best parties.

Being the VIP, right?

The downsides are the constant attention.

It's all eyes on you, all the time.

Especially when you have people wanting to cause you harm.

Amie had already had a lot of trials and tribulations prior to the Drew thing.

And so Amie was terrified.

Like, she was scared.

[Robert] She had some people that were really, had it out for her.

[Offray] I think their romance was very, um, fairy tale-like,

very innocent and child-like,

but it appears to me that it became real once the world knew,

because now you have the world giving their opinions.

Drew Carey being 59 and Amie Harwick being 36 is definitely an age gap.

[Robert] There's a lot of people who are jerks

and just post kinda nasty comments and stuff,

and they affected her.

[interviewer]

[Robert] "You're just a gold digger."

She suspected it was people who were stalking her...

...that would post very detailed and weird things online.

[fan 1] Drew!

-[fan 2] Drew! -[fan 3] Drew!

-[fan 2] Stop for your fans! -[fan 3] Can we get a picture?

[fan 2] Will you stop for your fans?

[Robert] When she would go places with Drew,

a lot of times the attention or focus would be on Drew.

-[woman] So, you're engaged to Drew Carey? -Yes, yeah.

And, um, everybody knows him as a pretty well-known celebrity.

-Mmm-hmm. -So, when people see you with him,

they just assume that you're just, like, a pretty face.

So, I brought Drew to this event.

And when we got there, of course people thought

he was there, he must be the presenter.

They asked me to step aside, and I'm like,

"No, I'm the one invited."

And he's like, "She actually invited me.

She's my PhD-holding, therapist partner,

and I'm just here with her, supporting her."

-Yeah. -And that was really great to hear, hear that.

Like, letting people know that that's not the case.

-[woman] Right, right. -And being supported.

Um, and somebody that's proud of what I do.

-[woman] Yeah. -It's great.

Drew said that, "Right now, I wish that I was not a celebrity

because I don't want Amie to be known as the person

that was in a relationship with Drew Carey."

[Maricela] They could have had a simpler life.

But now she was being judged for no reason

but because e she was dating him.

It not only affected her, but it affected the relationship.

[Amie] When people meet us, they think, "Oh, you know,

uh, she looks attractive, or she's so much younger,

-she must be this, this, and this." -[woman] Right, right.

This assumption, um, especially if you're dating

-somebody older or somebody that's well-known. -[woman] Yeah.

-So... -[woman] It's gotta be kinda frustrating.

It's definitely frustrating, just people online saying,

"Oh, I bet she's a gold digger,"

"I bet she's, you know, wanting him for this."

I'm like, "No, actually I have my own business and I have a degree."

[Offray] I believe it did become rough for a while.

There was a lot of disagreements

with the way that the relationship was going.

And I do feel like foundation to that really was Amie feeling uncomfortable

with the type of attention she was receiving.

[Azari] In October of 2018, the police were called

to the home that Drew Carey shared with Amie Harwick.

She reported that there were trespassers on the property.

Amie was living at the house by herself at the time

and was a little panicked about it.

She was saying that she was scared and, you know, she didn't know what to do.

She thought that they had some creepy stalkers around.

But it still affected her and I think that might have been

one of the main reasons her and Drew broke up.

A month later, she ended the engagement with him.

[Robert] When they called off the engagement,

I wasn't super shocked about it.

People have different interests in life.

And sometimes you're just not on the same path and that's how it was.

She reached out to Drew. I know that she wanted to discuss forgiveness,

because he was a very big part of her life.

And she didn't want it to just end with them never talking again.

It's 2020, Valentine's Day is coming up,

and Amie texts Drew Carey.

And she says that she would love to see him.

[Robert] She missed him.

I know that she was always talking about how much she loved him

and how she wanted to re-establish contact with him and...

Then I heard from him that he felt the same way.

[Offray] February 14, Amie and her friends decide

they're gonna have a girls' Valentine's Day.

Everybody's single.

We're gonna celebrate the day of love together.

[Robert] The next morning, the 15th,

I had a few texts from her roommate

and he didn't give me a lot of info.

He just said, "Hey, Amie was assaulted...

...please come down to the Hollywood Police Station."

I woke up and, uh, I had a missed call from Robert.

And so, I called Robert back,

and he had told me that, um, Amie had an accident.

[Robert] I went to the Police Station.

The police asked me to come into a room, started asking me questions.

They told me right away that she had been attacked in her home.

And they ask me the general things they ask anyone,

like, "Where were you at that time?"

You know, "When was the last time you talked to her?"

And then someone came in and told them something,

and then they said, "Well, I'm really sorry to, to inform you,

but your friend has, has passed away."

And I spent that day calling everyone, including Drew.

It was tough. I made a lot of phone calls

telling people that their closest friend was dead.

I pretty much just, I didn't have any words at all.

In my head, I was thinking, like, "Are you sure?"

This is our last photo together.

And Amie's gone.

And, you know, I guess I feel alone.

I feel lonely.

[Robert] She was an amazing, friendly, outgoing,

uh, person that could, like, meet and talk to anybody.

And then she was also a super weirdo.

At the same time, being the same excited,

ebullient, gracious person that she always was.

She could talk to your grandmother and have a great time,

and she could talk to a bunch of biker dudes on the corner,

and, like, they'd all love her.

[Ro] I met Amie when she was just a teenager in Philadelphia.

It was kinda cool to see, you know, a fellow East Coaster

out on, on the West Coast, sort of, kind of making her way up.

And then to think about all the things

that she accomplished while she was here,

there's a pretty hardcore sadness that's there.

You know, 'cause you knew that she was still burning really brightly.

And there was still so much for her to accomplish.

[Carrillo] Directly above where Dr. Harwick was found was a balcony,

which measured in and of itself about,

approximately 20 feet off the ground.

So, she fell 20 feet to the ground,

and there she's laying, having sustained brutal injuries,

especially to her head.

Other wounds to her hands.

One would look at them initially and say,

"Defense wounds."

She was transported to the hospital and later pronounced dead.

L.A.P.D. investigators saw beads, that trickled

through from the bedroom all the way to the balcony of the home,

that look like they're, they came from a necklace.

Although she wasn't injected with it,

there was enough nicotine in there

to be death causing.

It seems as though there was struggle

between her and the assailant,

and there was no opportunity to inject her.

[Carrillo] Then they find broken glass.

They found the French door shutters that lead out to the balcony

had been broken.

They found blood on there.

So there was, very definitively,

an assault that occurred inside the house.

[Sara Azari] According to the autopsy performed on Amie Harwick,

her manner of death was both

strangulation and injuries from a fall.

It wasn't just that she fell from the balcony...

...it's that she had struggled, she had been strangled...

...and then she fell from the balcony.

There was evidence of petechiae hemorrhaging,

which normally comes in the eyes.

She did have severe enough injury to her neck

where there were bones broken, one in particular in the hyoid.

...which would be death causing in and of itself.

When there are signs of strangulation,

you immediately know that the person, the assailant,

was known to the victim.

That there was a passion

that went into the crime.

Who would have that much animosity

to, to do something like that.

Conducting a homicide investigation is,

I analogize it to getting a pebble

and throwing it into a pond of water.

And you start with the closest ripple,

and work your way out.

[Azari] Now that you have a homicide,

and it seems to be by a known party,

the attention immediately goes to the boyfriend,

the ex-boyfriend.

I imagine that the police

would have wanted to speak to Drew Carey.

After all, there was a text message

between Drew and Amie

in the days leading up to Valentine's Day,

and they were supposed to meet.

[Robert Coshland] Amie loved things macabre, uh, funeral rights.

I don't have any, like, road taxidermy pieces,

but I am buying from a friend, um,

a goat that stands upright.

It's, uh, like, an art taxidermy piece.

-[interview] Oh, wow! -[Amie Harwick] So, I'm getting that.

'Cause the problem is now, I live with my partner, I live with my fiance,

and that's not his natural thing that he likes.

He likes pop art and eccentric things,

and then I like very macabre,

so, I'm always, like, taking him to cemeteries and stuff...

-Uh-huh. -...which, like, he actually does enjoy.

[Maricela Mendoza] Amie liked a lot of morbid things.

Like, the dark side.

Like Black Dahlia, Sharon Tate.

Amie was obsessed with famous Hollywood murders,

and now she had become a famous Hollywood murder.

One of the things that happens in a homicide

is that the defense will look to blame the police.

And so, the police would have had to consider Drew Carey.

At least make an attempt to, you know,

ask him a few questions, and be able to clear him.

Drew Carey was cleared.

He was not a suspect.

[Coshland] When I was in the police station

and they asked me who I thought did it,

I said, "Gareth" right away.

So, I don't really know much about Gareth.

She rarely talked about him other than he had harassed her.

She talked about how she was afraid of him.

So, they said, "Okay, who's this Gareth person?"

I looked at the Dr. Harwick,

and the restraining orders

that she had against Mr. Gareth Pursehouse.

Then you find out about Mr. Pursehouse,

who she has a long history of problems with.

When seeking the restraining order,

she made note of things that happened.

[tires screeching]

[Carrillo] One time, he pushed her out of a car on the freeway,

and left her on the freeway stranded.

[Mendoza] They would get in the car, and she would ask to get out...

...and he wouldn't let her out.

And they would fight.

So, it would always be that, "Let me out of the car, let me out of the car."

Because they would be fighting in the car.

Like, he would bash her head against the car seat...

...and push her out.

So, then she'd be stranded.

I'm almost afraid to talk about Gareth Pursehouse.

Um, I really am.

The history of Gareth, if we wanna get to understanding

who this person is, is...

...he's a very vindictive person

who was very good at computers.

[Coshland] This is, like, years ago.

Amie had gone on a trip to China

to teach a sex class, and when she got back,

she called me and she said,

"I think Gareth broke into my house while I was gone."

It was her apartment in Sherman Oaks.

And I was like, "Well, how do you know?"

And she's like, "Well, all of my photo albums are missing...

...and I think some pictures are turned upside down,

and my computer, like, doesn't work."

I drove over to her place,

and I was like, "Well, let me see the computer."

So, I opened it up,

and after a few seconds,

I determined it didn't even have an operating system,

like, it had been completely wiped.

It's a real Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde type of situation.

After, you know, trashing her place,

he shows up then, like, the next day,

and is playing, like, a love song outside,

and is professing his love for her.

But then, would turn around and do things

to let her know that he had access to her whenever he wanted.

[Coshland] She talked about how she was afraid of him.

She would say, "He's a computer genius,

and he might, you know, be monitoring my phones" and so forth.

[Rudy Torres] She's always been scared of him.

She always mentioned that she feared for her safety.

She always been guarded.

She still wondered whether he has access to her account.

'Cause there was just a lot of stuff that he would do

in the background to sabotage her.

[interviewer] I was gonna ask you if you had problems come up

because of the proliferation of social media.

Somebody can just go to your page and harass you everyday.

-Right. -Say things that aren't true.

And there's, really, it's very, very difficult to make that stop.

It's anonymous, and also just online, it's not taken as seriously.

-Right. -Receiving that level of harassment

will wear you down over time.

[Mendoza] Gareth wanted to be a comedian...

[audience laughing]

...and then Amie goes and dates Drew Carey who's also a comedian.

I'm sure that really hit him...

...really hard...

...and it even drove him crazier.

By virtue of the restraining order,

their relationship had dissolved...

...and, in fact, she hadn't seen him...

but then as you reach out to other friends,

you find out about Mr. Pursehouse,

the month prior to the murder,

had run into her in January,

uh, where he was very upset.

[Azari] There was an event in Los Angeles,

it was called the XBIZ Awards,

and Amie was invited...

[paparazzi] ...The fantastic Amie Harwick.

...and she was on the red carpet getting her photos taken

when her friend stepped aside for a minute to get drinks.

And, as soon as that happened,

she sees Gareth Pursehouse coming onto the red carpet

and approaching her.

He seemed to be photographing the event.

That was a side gig of his.

She said it was very strange

'cause she hadn't heard from Gareth in ten years.

And that's when she saw him,

and he started screaming at her and yelling.

Reciting texts that she had sent him

from, like, years and years ago.

[Carrillo] And in his fit of anger,

he said, "You ruined my life, bitch."

Amie tried to get Gareth to come off to a corner,

and he was just crying like a child.

And he falls to the ground, and goes into fetal position,

and, I mean, everyone's just staring over.

It's a bizarre scene, right? For an adult man.

I can't even imagine how I would handle this.

Amie went straight into her therapist mode,

and she thought by being able to reason with him...

...that that would somehow make him calm down...

...and they can continue on with the evening...

...without any more incidents.

But that just wasn't the case in this scenario.

[Azari] And, in fact, she was so scared,

that when they left that event,

she didn't want to go to the afterparty as planned.

And she was petrified.

She was terrified.

He had told her that he thinks about her all the time.

That he still believes that they are a couple,

and therefore is jealous when there's other men paying attention to her.

[Coshland] So, she called me and she said

she was afraid Gareth was monitoring her phone,

and explained she was really freaked out, she was...

I asked her, "Should we get another restraining order?"

And she said, "Well, he didn't actually threaten me,

so, I don't think there's anything I can do,"

and that's when she started sharing her phone location with me.

Then that's also when she told me,

"If anything happens to me, it was him."

[Azari] Amie Harwick may have reached out to Drew Carey

on February 13th, just before Valentine's Day.

Maybe she wanted to talk to Drew Carey

about what had happened at the XBIZ event.

Maybe she felt close enough to him to confide in him.

It's unclear,

but I don't find it at all coincidental

that Amie Harwick was murdered

in the early morning hours of February 15th

after Valentine's Day.

It is a day that is really significant

for those who are obsessed and abusive.

Abusers often pick Valentine's Day

as the day when they unleash that obsession.

[Tunisia Offray] It's the perfect day for a person

who has psychopathic behavior.

Like, it's in alignment with that thought process.

He wanted the world to know

that, on this national day of love,

"If I can't have you, no one else can."

So, when you have a struggle,

when you have Mr. Pursehouse

and his threats prior to the restraining order,

then coupled with his actions on January,

the month prior...

...then you can start looking at Mr. Pursehouse a little closer.

Certainly there was enough evidence to obtain a search warrant

to go look at Mr. Pursehouse's residence.

During the execution of a search warrant

of Mr. Pursehouse's residence,

they were able to locate and retrieve syringes.

The same type of make and content

as the syringe that was found inside the residence of Dr. Harwick.

[Coshland] We had all postulated that maybe he would try and fake

that she killed herself in a drug overdose or something.

You don't have a syringe full of nicotine

for any reason other than to kill somebody.

[Carrillo] His initial thing was that he had been home on the 14th,

but he was bloody, he had sustained injuries.

We found bloody clothing.

So, they arrested him without incident.

They just handcuffed him and took him away.

This being a murder case, it was a $2 million-bail.

What that means is the individual trying to post bond

has to pay 10% of that to be able to get released.

On microscopic examination of the fingernail scrapings

taken from the deceased in this case,

the lab proved DNA

belonging to Mr. Pursehouse

was located underneath her fingernail.

DNA is bulletproof.

The case against him is very much ironclad.

You have somebody waiting in the home for four hours,

you have a syringe filled with poison at the scene,

that goes to premeditation.

[Coshland] He was held for a while...

...and then a local news channel reporter called me,

and said, "Hey, did you know Gareth is out?"

[Mendoza] I was very scared.

Somebody texted me and said,

"Just be careful because he had jumped bail."

The conversations that Amie had had with me about Gareth...

...talking about me, and he knew where I lived.

I was scared that he was gonna come.

[whimpering]

After Gareth Pursehouse bonded out on that $2 million bond,

you know, the bond had certain terms and conditions,

and he was not to be anywhere near borders and airports, etc.

Well, he was found near LAX...

...and the court believed that he was trying to abscond and flee...

...and that is where he was arrested...

...and the bond went away, it was revoked.

And when you do that, you don't get another bond.

You're done.

[Judge] All right... [indistinct]

...the matter of the people versus Gareth, uh, Pursehouse, uh,

I understand there is an issue that you wanted

to address with the court first?

[lawyer] Well, we have an ongoing discovery request...

Today, we're still waiting for a trial date to be set.

...Today is, uh, 0 of 60.

[Azari] A normal case would have gone to trial by now,

but I think because of the pandemic,

there's been this delay,

but we can expect this case to go to trial in 2023.

...And that's what I'm saying...

[Azari] The biggest issue of contention here is

was it first degree murder or was it second degree murder?

For first degree murder,

the prosecution needs to show beyond a reasonable doubt

that Gareth Pursehouse premeditated and planned

the killing of Amie Harwick.

[Ro Kohli] I know he pleaded not guilty.

The fact is that he's gonna try to prove

that his delusional reasons made sense,

and they don't.

[Mendoza] For him to plead not guilty,

to me, is a slap in the face.

He just wants a trial to further humiliate Amie...

...to further air any laundry that she might have from her past.

Because, to me, there's no way that he's not guilty.

The day of the funeral, I flew out early to Lansdale

to do her hair and makeup.

If we had not seen her,

I would have not have really known the depth of what he had done

because I got to see the fingerprints.

The battle. I got to see the battle that was put up...

...for her life.

[Coshland] So, at the funeral, Drew was there.

Unfortunately, the cemetery she's buried at,

they don't allow headstones...

...and she wanted an elaborate headstone.

So, last year, I started this kind of project.

I wanna raise money to actually build a bronze statue of Amie

that's also a tribute to her, but a tribute to...

...victims of domestic violence.

So...

...I, um,

I want a place for her friends here to go...

...and I want something that will last...

...for a very, very long time

because I want people to know about her.

She would want people to remember her as a real person...

Hi, this is Dr. Amie Harwick, licensed marriage and family therapist.

...who's gone through ups and downs,

who's gone through things that probably nobody can imagine.

A strong, ambitious, motivated, beautiful woman.

She was loved, very, very loved.

[group singing] ...Happy birthday to you!

When I think about Amie Harwick, it deeply saddens me.

She was empathetic, she was compassionate,

she was exuberant, she had a bright future,

and her life was cut short

by an obsessed abuser,

and not everyone that commits domestic violence

is necessarily the profile of Gareth Pursehouse...

...but he's of the worst kind you can possibly imagine.

Possibly, the system failed her.

There's all kind of things that go through my mind

in how this could have stopped.

But it's tragic.

It is no way for somebody to die.

There's a lot in Hollywood that the world doesn't see.

[woman 1] Dude, you ready for live?

We're on The Voice tonight, dude.

[woman 2]

Christina went home to the Lord.

[woman] When you come from a group like Hi-Five,

jealousy kicks in.

[reporter] An aspiring actress has vanished in Hollywood.

[Azari] We have two murders...

...and they are eerily similar.

[paparazzi] Johnny Lewis!

[male] Johnny Lewis was known for Sons of Anarchy,

but now he'll be known for this.

[woman 1]

[woman 2] He became typecast as this gangster,

he did it so well.

He did it so well 'cause that's who he was.

[male] Hollywood is just a monster.
