Amie Harwick, who was an American marriage and family therapist, was found unresponsive early on February 15, 2020, hours after celebrating Valentine's Day. Her body was found 20 feet under the bedroom balcony of her Hollywood Hills apartment. The Los Angeles Police Department reported they were called by Amie's neighbours, who saw a woman screaming. The police met Amie's roommate at the crime scene. Harwick was soon rushed to the hospital but could not survive. An autopsy revealed she died of blunt force injuries to the torso and head. Also, there were signs of manual strangulation, which means the victim was strangled by the attacker's hands and other body parts.

Initially, Gareth Pursehouse, Harwick's ex-boyfriend was arrested on suspicion of murder but was soon released after posting a $2 million bond. Later, he was again arrested and was charged with residential burglary and first-degree murder, with special circumstances of lying. While Pursehouse was eligible for the death penalty, he was pleaded not guilty in April 2020. Drew Carey and Amie Harwick's love story Drew Carey and Amie Harwick first met in Las Vegas in 2017.
