On July 30, 2011, Simon Gittany threw his fiance, Lisa Harnum, off a 15th-floor balcony. She didn't survive.
Court documents paint a tempestuous relationship in the months leading up to Harnum's death. She wanted to leave Gittany. She told her mother she felt trapped.
Shortly before 10 a.m. on July 30, her Sydney neighbors heard a woman banging on their door and screaming for help. A camera in the hallway recorded Gittany putting his hand over Harnum's mouth and dragging her back into their apartment.
