Re: Gable Tostee of Tinder
Why blame her for using Tinder?
The recording sounded as if he was trying to throttle her to restrain her which seems rather excessive give the difference in sizes and strengths. All he had to do was pick her up and put her outside.
Yesterday I read that the jury couldn't reach a decision, I'll see what I can find today.

I have not listened to the transcript as I don't believe it is available, but I have read that he was almost gentlemanly in the face of her abuse.

Re: Gable Tostee of Tinder
I don't get that. I read that she was mainly the attacker of him. He told her to leave but she just started attacking him again. Yes he should have ultimately used his superior strength to throw her out the door not throw her onto the balcony, but perhaps the balcony was more accessible, I don't know.

No doubt more will come out once the verdict is given. I can't imagine it would be murder.

Re: Gable Tostee of Tinder
He was found not guilty but only after long deliberation. I'd have said manslaughter myself. He sounds a totally despicable character who should take some responsibility for his part in this.

He one of those jock types that thinks he's good looking and obviously has money I guess. - Didn't he have a tanning bed on his balcony on one of the pictures?

Re: Gable Tostee of Tinder
Thought so too until I read what wasn't told at court. I'm thinking worse will come and one day there will be the all too familiar aussie cry, " why didn't someone intervene?"
