Her decision wasn't rational because she had been drinking illegal home-made spirits, supplied by the accused.

"Holt says Warriena's behaviour becomes more and more erratic. Well past being drunk."

Probably, again, because this was no ordinary alcohol.

He is toying with her, he is amused by her, patience is not the word I would use to describe what is heard on that recording.

And that, my dear friends, is why you hire a QC.

He may as well just get up and leave the courtroom now.

BOOM SHAKKA LAKKA

As for manslaughter, he failed to address why Warriena did not explore any other option before making the fatal decision to try to descend. The defence is going to ask why she didn't ask the witness who spoke to her for assistance and why she didn't simply remain put as by the Crown's own admission, there was no imminent threat to her at that point. As the defence has the benefit of addressing the jury last, the Crown cannot rebut any argument put forward by the defence and should have preempted this line of closing. They did not and I have no idea why they did not
.

I live in the UK but my daughter lived in the Avalon apartment complex at the time of this tragic incident so I have kept a close eye on what is going on with Mr Tostee’s trial.
My heart wants someone to be responsible, it struck too close to home paricularly as my daughter is quite close to Ms Wright’s age. But my my head is having trouble comprehending how it could be a criminal act. How could Mr Tostee have known that Ms Wright would try to climb down to another balcony? That is an extreme act and seems totally unnecessary given what you have said above, that the prosecutor said they did not allege that Mr Tostee had any intention of harming Ms Wright once she was stranded on the balcony.

I think both of them acted poorly and irrationally at times but I don’t think Mr Tostee is a murderer. He is however and idiot.

No evidence of this ever led. Just fabricated nonsense.
