A task force found Pursehouse about 4:30 p.m. Saturday at a home in the 8100 block of Cabora Drive in Playa Del Rey, according to police and Los Angeles County booking records.

Bail for Pursehouse was set at $2 million pending his initial court appearance.

Look at the bright side.

This is one less democrat voting against our National Security.

How do I know she’s a democrat? She is an APA psychologist from California.

Explains it all.

So long, baby.

When did this happen? In the 1800s? They don't have cell phone coverage in Hollywood?

Yeah he was. I'm surprised there aren't a hundred videos of her being tossed overboard taken by concerned Hollyweirdians.

"Help! Help! My roommate is about to be tossed from her third floor balcony by her ex-boyfriend!"

"Righteous! Thanks for the heads up, dude. Let me get my iPhone out."

Murdering a former Playboy model?

No trial. Automatic death penalty.

Formerly engaged to Drew Carey?

What is wrong with some people?

They want sexual freedom for themselves, but not for others. The free-sex utopia breaks down as soon as Person A wants sex with Person B, but Person B doesn't want sex with Person A. Add Person C into the mix, and Person B "falls" from a balcony.

I’d have anger issues too if my name was “Gareth Pursehouse”.
