It was Valentine's Day in 2020, and Dr. Amy Harwick wasn't thinking about love. She wasn't waiting for flowers or chocolates or some grand romantic gesture. She didn't need a man to make the night special because she had herself, her career, and her friends. And what better way to celebrate than a night out in Hollywood? She had built her career on love, relationships, and empowerment. She was a published author, a therapist, and an advocate. In many ways, she had it all. But as she drove home through the winding roads of Hollywood Hills,

looking out over the glittering lights of Los Angeles, she didn't know that someone else was waiting for her, inside the shadows of her own home. By the time Amy stepped out of her car and walked through the front door, her fate was already sealed. At 102 a.m., she sent her very last text message. Send me the pictures of the green couch. 12 minutes later, she was screaming for her life.

Hi everyone, welcome back to my channel. My name is Kimberlylaa, and if you've never been here before, it's nice to finally meet you. I've been wanting to talk about this case for at least two years, and it has been really hard for me. I learned so much about every person I research, and I have to admit that some stick with me more than others. I'm human, we connect with other humans as we get to know more about them, and I've never felt as connected to Amy as I did with anyone else I've talked about on this channel, which made that very difficult for me to tell her story. I don't usually share any of this because I've definitely felt like this before with other stories, but every time I tell myself, they need to be told. So no matter how hard it is for me to

tell you this story, Dr. Amy Harwick should always be remembered. Before she was a published author and a therapist to Hollywood's elite, Amy Harwick was just a girl with big dreams. She was a daughter, a sister, and a best friend. She was a fire dancer, a model, a student, and a mentor. She was a woman who loved hard, live loud, and refused to be anyone but herself. And that made her unforgettable to so many people. Amy Nicole Harwick was born on May 20th of 1981 in Sellersville, Pennsylvania, a borough on the outskirts of Philadelphia. She was in the foster care system until she was 11 months old when she was adopted by her parents, Penny and Tom Harwick. Amy grew up in Lansdale, Pennsylvania with her little brother, Christopher. He was adopted around the time that Amy was

And like most brother and sister relationships, they had a loving rivalry together, but they shared a lot in common as they grew up. Their most common interest were concerts. Music was Amy's first love. She would go with Chris to heavy metal shows, even got her parents involved in loving them as well. She loved dancing to the beach boys with her mom. Amy's favorite artists were Depeche Mode, Tori Amos, Nine Inch Nails, and later Christina Perry. She was a 90s kid, and I'm sure many of you can relate to her mom. her childhood. Amy hopped around a few schools when she was younger, which month she went through

the awkward teenage phase of not knowing exactly where she fit in, but she could always make friends wherever she went. Amy was a warm, empathetic, an enthusiastic person who would go out of her way to ask how you were doing and give you a hug. She loved meeting new people from all walks of life. Amy loved to experiment with makeup and style, and in high school she wore fish nuts, combat boots, cheetah print skirts, black chokers, heavy eye makeup, lip-blind, and and of course the thin 90s brows. She had curtain bangs and dyed her hair every color of the rainbow,

from purple to orange to blonde, and finally settling on black. I looked the exact same way in high school and I'm sure many of you still rock the band t-shirts, the animal print, and those things are actually coming back. Amy was highly intelligent and excelled in social sciences,

especially history and psychology. Amy worked hard. Her first two jobs were at the local mall, where she worked in retail at Wet Seal. Remember that story? used to love that store and a pretzel shop. Once Amy graduated from North Penn High School in 1999, she had a head start compared to her peers.

Amy knew from day one. She wanted to study psychology and become a therapist so that she could help people. Sometimes people don't know what they want to do, but Amy knew exactly what she wanted, what her dream was. Amy's friend said, she always made them feel like they were the most important person in the room. She was motivated by her curiosity and passions,

and she was unapologetically herself. Out of high school, she met a musician in a heavy metal band. His name was Tommy Decker. And they both had the same dream, Hollywood. It was a big move over 3,000 miles away, but Amy felt like she could do anything. They signed a lease and packed up their bags, and they moved across the country.

Amy was nervous because her greatest fear was actually being disconnected from her friends and family and her loved ones. She didn't want to lose anyone. She made the conscious effort to stay in touch with her extended family. And every year, Amy flew in, for their annual cookie baking day, and this was a huge party where everyone brought Philly cheese steaks, pork rolls, and Lebanon bologna. If you're from Pennsylvania, then you would know.

Chris joined the armed forces and married his wife Carrie and had two children. Amy called Chris regularly, even when Chris was deployed overseas. She still maintained that really strong relationship with her brother. And after Amy's moved to California, her marriage, unfortunately ended in divorce. They just grew apart. But, Amy, Amy found another love, California, and Amy fit right in with a fast-paced social lifestyle. In 2001, she attended Cal Poly in Pomona and earned a bachelor's degree in psychology. Amy then pursued her master's in psychology from Pepperdown University. There was already a lot of schooling, and Amy was able to pay herself through college.

Amy valued health and fitness, especially kickboxing and dancing. Working out was her primary stress relief, which was important because she was very busy. She started a personal training business in 2002, teaching Pilates for over a decade. She even released her own workout DVD called Fit to Rock. Hey, this is Amy Nicole, and welcome to my Fit to Rock workout video. And she starred in music videos and even produced a music video for the song Resurrection by Chimera. Amy worked as a bartender, a go-go dancer, and even a clown. She walked on stilts. I hadn't seen it, but I've heard about it.

She was always getting invited to these big Hollywood parties, and she was so, talented. She was also a fire eater. One time Amy's friend Mark Hunter was surfing the TV, and he stopped on an episode of The Real Housewives, and he was like, wait a minute. Is that Amy Harwick? And yes, it was. It was Amy doing her fire swallowing act in the background of a video on TV. Amy was a natural on stage and in front of the camera. She did modeling under the name Amy Nicole, and she worked for clothing lines like Stop Steering and Coffin Case. Once she was even invited to the Playboy Mansion, where the brand spot sponsoring her favorite outfits was AMI Clubwear.

And Amy figured, you know what? It wouldn't hurt to reach out to them because she loved their clothing. And she asked them to provide her costumes for her fire-eating performances. And it pays off to, I guess, cold email or cold call because she was sent for sparkly vintage burlesque outfits. And through modeling and performing,

Amy was able to support herself and her college endeavors. She felt self-empowered, and she networked and made connections with hundreds of people. And in her free time, she attended concerts, art exhibitions, and even her friends burlesh shows. She even did promo videos on AMI Clubwear's YouTube channel. Are you ready for some high-heel facts? Okay, here we go. And I had the pleasure of learning a lot about Amy from these videos.

It's where I got a lot of this information from Amy herself, like this one, all about who she was growing up, and let's just hear it from Amy. Hey, this is Amy Nicole, and I'm with AMI Clubwear today for my Meet the Model video. In high school, I would say I was a little bit awkward. I was definitely pretty alternative. I listened to rock and roll and heavy metal. In school, I would wear ripped up fishnets with combat boots, a leopard print skirt, and probably a nine-inch nails t-shirt.

I also liked getting all the details on her makeup routine because she was absolutely gorgeous, especially her favorite lip color, which I'm actually wearing today in her honor. She did an entire makeup tutorial on AMI Club Wears videos. For Amy Clubwear's videos. California meant that her style transformed. She loved full glam makeup with dark eyeliner and red lipstick. Friends compared her to a grown-up Wednesday

Adams with an alternative vintage and goth inspired wardrobe. Amy wore black lace, hair flowers, and top hats. She wished she could dress like it was 1969 every day of her life. Amy was also interested in horror movies, true crime, and collecting vintage items. She would regularly go to auctions and she once a bid on and won undergarments belonging to Sharon Tate. If you don't know who that is, but you watch True Crime, you probably recognize

the Manson Family Murders. Well, unfortunately, Sharon Tate was one of their victims. If you've ever seen the movie Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Sharon is played by Margot Robbie. Amy actually displayed Sharon's bras in her large walk-in closet. They were actually in a glass box that she had on display. She was a collector through and through. She collected taxidermy animals as well.

And I looked into this because Amy was such an animal lover. It kind of confused me, but it turns out, this is what they call ethical taxidermy. And I think it's really cool, and it is a beautiful art once you understand it. When animals die of natural causes, taxidermy is a way to preserve them and remember them the way that they were. And Amy proudly displayed them in her home because she loved them so very much. She also owned a coffin and was fascinated by specimens preserved in formaldehyde jars.

Amy's favorite number was 13, and her favorite color, was orange. There were so many things that made Amy unique. But now let's talk about love. At 28 years old, Amy was still in her master's program and she started dating a guy named Gareth. Now he was 6'4, charming and worked as an IT professional and software engineer. He was also an aspiring stand-up comedian and a photographer. Gareth considered Amy his muse. He was always taking pictures of her and Amy introduced him to her friends and family, including her best friend, Grace Stanley. Grace thought Gareth was devoted to Amy, but she also thought he was kind of average. I think most of us have friends who have dated someone that we aren't quite sure about, and you don't

want to be raining on their parade or anything, but you're also kind of unimpressed. Well, that was Gareth. Gareth moved in to Amy's apartment, but over time, Amy did start to realize that Gareth did not really have her best intentions in mind. He was kind of keeping her from following her dreams in her career, And the relationship kind of became one of those like on again, off again ones. In 2011, Amy broke up with Gareth for Good, which actually changed what Amy wanted out of her life. It came at a very hard time. She was going through a lot of changes and actually deciding what she wanted to study and what she wanted to do when she got out of school. She knew she wanted to do psychology, but she was wondering what route she should go down because there are a lot of different venues you can do in psychology.

Let me tell you what was going on. First, Amy was working with counseling juvenile offenders at a local prison, but someone hacked into her computer. And they used Amy's email to send very sensitive information, including nude photographs of her, to replace her employment. And Amy ended up losing her job. She didn't know who had done this to her, but it scared her. And of course, she was devastated. She was scared that somebody was out there doing this malicious stuff to her, and she didn't know who. She was also concerned about her future. if this kept happening and she kept losing opportunities, that was going to be really hard for her.

So in December of 2011, she graduated with her master's, but she needed a break. Amy learned she had an underlying health condition. So she quit drinking alcohol, she embraced sobriety, but this meant she lost friends in the process. This is really hard, but there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Amy actually interned with a therapist named Mashumi Gosh, and she felt so inspired to counsel men and women

who survived toxic and traumatic relationships. So this is how she's kind of getting on the path that she wants to take. She was in relationships that didn't go well. She was interning for someone that did relationship and trauma advice. And Amy decided that she wanted to help improve other people's relationships, whether it came from setting boundaries or having healthy intercourse with a partner. That's when Amy decided to go into a PhD program at the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality, and she became a doctor, not an MD, but a PhD.

She was licensed in marriage and family therapy and started her very own private practice. Amy treated people from all backgrounds, but she specialized in psychological disorders like bipolar and borderline personality. She counseled women who experienced harassment, stalking, and domestic violence. She worked with men and women who had PTSD from sexual exploitation, adult material addictions, intimate dysfunction, and more. She formed connections with experts like Dr. Hernando Chavez, another graduate, of the Human Sexuality Program. And in 2014, Amy published a book called The New Sex Bible for Women,

The Complete Guide to Sexual Self-Awomeness and Intimacy. Amy was a brilliant writer. She published articles in Elite Daily about self-esteem, self-care, setting boundaries, and educating people about intercourse and safety. Amy encouraged healthy behavior surrounding intimacy, and I think this is so important. There is a huge stigma around intercourse

and talking about it, but it's a major part of a successful relationship, which was Amy's goal to help provide her clients. And as a published author, Amy was growing her online presence as well. She posted uplifting quotes on her Instagram and Facebook, reminding people to drink water and get a good night's sleep. On Valentine's Day, she posted this in 2020, quote, Platonic Love is important too.

There is so much cultural emphasis on romantic love, but let's be thankful for the authentic love that we give and receive to friends, end quote. Amy even had her own YouTube channel as a relationship coach. She filmed videos about setting boundaries, coping with fears, surviving breakups, and enduring tough family holidays. Because of her online advocacy work, she starred on TV shows and podcast episodes. She was on the show, addicted to sexting, and the podcast, Dady Ladies, and Amy was a special guest. She also ran an online networking group called Foxy Feminist to help LA women get job opportunities

and meet other career-minded women in the area. Amy really did it all. But she wasn't just about talking about it, she did it. She was constantly bettering herself, helping others, and heightening her awareness of social issues. One cause that Amy was very passionate about was providing free and low-cost mental health services to people that worked in the adult industry. This field of work is very stigmatized, and I know it can be easy to judge things that we don't understand, know about, or consider taboo. But because of the stigma, it makes it harder for people who work in this field to get help, the help that they really need. Many sex workers face higher risk of addiction

and mental health problems. In 2018, an organization called Pineapple Support was founded in response to the rising numbers of adult film stars taking their own lives. Amy was vetted by Pineapple Support. She was on their website, listed as a private provider who was accepting new clients. But Amy herself was still facing setbacks.

A former friend, and this is for unknown reasons, had tried to sabotage her career. In 2015, this first was for a few years. harassed Amy on text and email, and Amy decided she had to file a restraining order against this woman. She was also getting a lot of anonymous comments online that were derogatory and untrue. People would give Amy one-star reviews on her doctor's website or even make nasty comments on her social media. And Amy, of course, did not know who was doing this, which is very frustrating and just kept on happening. But things were starting to look up in July of 2017. Amy met a new man.

She was attending a party thrown by a well-known Hollywood producer, and she hit it off with one of the guests. His name was Drew Carey. He's the famous actor and comedian that hosts The Price is Right. While they got to talking, and they hit it off, and Drew invited her on their first date to Disneyland. He told her to bring all of her friends, and she did. There were about 10 of them that attended. Amy and Drew fell in love fast. They had so much fun together.

They had dance parties in their kitchen, and Drew got Amy a collection of poison bottles, which she put on display in her home. Before she knew it, they were engaged, and they debuted their relationship on the game show Price is Right. It was in 2018 on the Valentine's Day episode. Here's a clip of Amy and Drew walking arm and arm onto the stage. Amy is wearing a pink, red, and black floral dress, and she looks absolutely stunning. Unfortunately, Drew was, of course, in the spotlight, which meant that Amy was too. Amy and Drew would go out and then all these anonymous comments would flood in on her social media.

and Amy was afraid that the spotlight would jeopardize her career. It put a lot of pressure on their relationship. They tried to work it out through therapy, but it ended up in them separating before the end of 2018. It was really hard, but Amy really did value where she was going in her career. But by 2020, at the age of 38, Amy was happily single. She lived at 2086 Mound Street in the Hollywood Hills, a scenic area of Los Angeles that's known, of course, for the giant Hollywood sign.

I'm sure you've seen it. Amy's Tudor style home was brown and beige with blue trimmed windows and the interior was beautiful. It had an ornate staircase with decorations that remind me of the Sistine Chapel. It's vintage and old Hollywood. Amy's bedroom, the primary suite, was on the third floor. Her balcony overlooked the back patio,

a Zen porch space with a little garden, surrounded by a tall fence. Amy had a roommate named Michael Herman. He lived on the first floor in a smaller bedroom. He had previously been the roommate of Amy's very close friend, and photographer Robert Coshlin. Robert was also a project manager and a fundraiser. He got married in 2019 to one of Amy's friends, Cleopatra.

After Robert and Cleopatra's wedding, Michael moved out of their place and into Amy's place in October. Michael worked long, irregular hours and traveled many months of the year, and Michael had Robert's vote of confidence, so Amy felt safe having him around. At the end of January, Amy and her brother Christopher had a conversation on Facebook. Chris had spent the past year deployed in Afghanistan, but he was said to return to Pennsylvania in early February. And as they talked, Amy kept things light. She didn't mention anything negative, but she did send pictures of the love of her life,

her cat Marquis. He was a snowshoes Siamese that Amy adopted as an emotional support animal, and Amy loved to dress him up in costumes and do photos shoots, and she had recently gone into photography, so there was even more of this coming, and she created an Instagram just for Marquis. Chris didn't know that this would be the last conversation he ever had with his sister. On Valentine's Day 2020, around the time the COVID was starting to hit the U.S., Amy woke up at 6.30 in the morning and her friend Cleopatra came over for a sunrise hike through the Hollywood Hills. When Cleopatra arrived, Amy threw on a red cardigan to celebrate the

day of love. Amy gave Cleopatra a tour of her favorite landmarks, and they stopped for breakfast at the Beechwood Cafe, where Amy talked about all of her recent accomplishments. She was happy and she was healthy and exactly where she was meant to be in life. That evening, Amy went out for a Galantines Day celebration with her friend Sarah Rollins and Rebecca Jalad to support their other friend Tosh Sherman at a beauty of burlesque show. Amy dressed up. She drove to the Globe Theater on Broadway and they danced and they cheered and they took pictures with a disposable camera. And after the show, Amy posed for a photo with her friends. She was wearing a pink velvet bodycon dress, a leather jacket,

two cross necklaces, leather boots, and a white and gold clutch. I do need to point something out. I saw so much criticism for Amy wearing a rosary-style necklace. These are very popular. I'm actually wearing a similar one from my collection, and all the boutiques in LA have them. I was very surprised to see other women bashing this poor woman. It's very common in many cultures to even wear real rosary beads,

so please leave those comments off of this video. It's a necklace and we're talking about someone who lost their life. Those petty, harsh judgments, they really bother me. I don't always speak up about them, but I do block them in my comment section. We don't even know the significance. It could be just for fashion, but it could also be very personal. It could be an heirloom of a loved one. We do not know.

But anyway, that night, Tosh invited Amy to an after party. But Amy wanted to wind down. She told Tosh she loved her and she would see her later. Amy, Sarah, and Rebecca ended the night at the Nomad. This is a restaurant and bar with a green, suede couch, fancy decorations, and they drank non-alcoholic drinks and took photos. Amy ordered tea, but by midnight they were all very exhausted, so they went their separate ways. Amy left and started her drive through the twisting roads in the Hollywood Hills towards her home.

Amy pulled into her driveway about 1 a.m., pulled her car into her garage and sat in the car as she texted Rebecca asking for pictures from that night. Amy's last text to Sarah was at 1.02 a.m., which said, send me the pictures of the green couch. Sarah said the pictures at 2 o'clock, but Amy never replied. Sarah just figured she'd probably gone to bed. But back at 1.14 a.m., just 12 minutes after Amy sent that last text, 911 received a call from Michael Herman, her roommate. And I have a recording of this call, but it is not very clear, but I do think it's important to hear the panic in Michael's voice. So I'm going to play it for you now. I want to reduce the Stanford at 434.

Yes. Somebody just attacked my roommate. We're at 286 bound street. Find anything. Okay. How would be your thought that? What happened? See, I don't know. I was downstairs. I heard screaming. Please get a cop here. Okay. And this is who screaming inside? Um, I can't think right now. Um, Amy, Amy Harwick. I mean, who is she to you, sir? See, my roommate. Okay.

Is she screaming for help? Yeah. Okay. Did you see anything? No. Okay. No. I heard her screaming and I heard her being... All right, so I'm going to send out that somebody's screaming, okay, since she didn't see anything.

You don't know she's being attacked. You're not sure. Yes, I know she's being attacked. I heard that thrown to the ground. At first, it is just chaos. Michael says his roommate is being attacked upstairs. He didn't see anything, but he thinks that because he heard a scream. The operator tries to clarify.

And Michael says, no, I heard her screaming and I heard her being strangled. And the operator said, all right, well, I'm going to send somebody out for screaming, okay? since you didn't see anything. You don't know if she's being attacked. You're not sure. But Michael was frustrated. He says, well, yes, I know she's being attacked. I heard her get thrown to the ground.

Michael was also heard saying to the operator, oh my God, I'm going to hang up on this bitch. I understand, you know, these are very high-paced environments that these operators have to deal with. The operator is trying to get as much information as she can to send out the right kind of help. But Michael is concerned for his roommate, concerned for her life.

So it was getting very frustrating. The operator finally gets his information, including the name and address, and asks if this is Michael's phone number. Michael says no. He borrowed another man's phone to make this call. The man was standing next to him, and he's heard on the 911 call agreeing

that Michael could be called back at this number. Michael says he will be standing outside in the driveway. It was a lot. And five minutes later, police were not there. Michael placed yet another call to 911, telling them to hurry up. Michael had heard Amy screaming for minutes, but now the house was quiet. To Michael, it felt like an eternity that police were taking to arrive.

The problem was that Officer Daniel Fysock and his partner thought they could get to their destination without using GPS. There are so many winding roads in Hollywood Hills that they accidentally took a wrong turn. So they finally had to put on their GPS and they finally arrived minutes later, but it took them much longer than usual. At this point, they didn't know what was happening. Remember, the call was about a screaming person. It could have been anything. It could have been a party. When they pull up, they see an agitated man in the driveway wearing a white shirt, which appeared to have blood stains on it. He was bleeding from his stomach, his arm, and his hand. It was Michael.

He explained that he had been violently woken up to the sound of blood-curdling screams coming from upstairs. At first, he thought his roommate Amy might have seen a mouse and screeched, but it went on and on. Sir, hi. I can help you. My roommate was attacked. I know what I was. I heard it. She's screaming. She was thrown to the ground. I couldn't find my phone. I couldn't find anything. Okay, hold on. Okay, so you have access to here? No. Is there anybody else inside the house? My roommate. Just your roommate by herself? Yes.

You didn't check on her? Dude, I heard screaming. I don't know if that guy had a gun or a knife. I came running trying to, I couldn't find my phone. Does there somebody else inside? Yes, I think there's somebody else in favor. Do me a favor. Do me a favor. Calm down. Other than your roommate, is there anybody else inside the house? I don't know. I don't know. So you didn't see anyone. I just heard her screaming. Have you called that? She got thrown to the ground.

I'd be calling for her through his windows, but he's answering nothing. Michael then went to his doorway and he yelled Amy over and over again, but she did not say anything back. He could still hear her screaming. He went back to his bedroom trying to find his phone. That's when he heard a loud thud that he thought sounded like two bodies falling to the ground.

And that is when Amy's screams became muffled, but they were still continuing. He heard a strenuous coughing sound, and then Michael was still looking for his keys in his phone for several minutes. And finally, he screamed He screamed, hey, my man up the stairs, hoping that Amy's attacker would hear him and get scared and stop. Then, Michael not knowing what to do, realized that this was getting serious.

He ran for help. He went out the back door onto the patio, scaled the tall gate, ran to their closest neighbor's house and knocked on their door, but he got no answer. He ran across the street to another neighbor, but they didn't answer. Then luckily, he saw someone walking down the street, and that man let Michael borrow his phone and placed the 911 call. Now, he was locked out of his own house with the cops asking a lot of questions. Michael did not give as much detail as I just did. He was panicked, and he wasn't making much sense. He was definitely explaining things in a very jumbled order.

He was cursing. He was upset that people weren't taking him seriously. And finally, one of the officers was like, listen, you need to calm down. He didn't know what to believe. Here was a guy without an ID, without his phone, standing with blood on his shirt outside of a locked house. Was he intoxicated? Was he mentally unstable? There wasn't any commotion that they could hear going on in the house. And they kept telling Michael he needed to relax because he was making the situation much worse.

I feel like there are some people that when they're told to relax, it puts them more on edge. And Michael seems to be one of those people. He couldn't really even take it anymore. He was walking up and down the driveway as the officers were standing there asking, well, what are we supposed to do? He kept telling them, just do what I did. Jump the fence. But they weren't understanding why this random guy doesn't have a key to his own home,

that he's saying he lived in. Michael kept repeating, just jumped the fence. That's what they needed to do to get back inside the backyard. So finally, after a lot of back and forth that seemed very unnecessary, and was honestly hard for me to watch, the cops hopped the fence. So where's your key at?

Inside, downstairs, the back door and open. Here, down like, get you get that. You're good, you're good. You get. You get shit. 6-815, advisors were responding to miss that we had to hop the fence. We're going to be at the rear of the location. Bysick and his partner climbed over.

They landed in the backyard with Michael right behind them as they turned the corner of the home. That's when they saw a woman collapsed on the concrete pavement of the patio. She was just beneath the third floor balcony. Michael began to panic. He was calling out Amy's name and screaming the F word over and over again.
