AdvertisementIn court papers seeking the restraining order, Harwick accused Pursehouse of repeated acts of abuse, including slamming her head on the ground and kicking her.
Officers subsequently found Harwick lying on the ground beneath a third-floor balcony.
Authorities said they believe Pursehouse threw Harwick from her third-floor balcony.
The murder charge includes a special-circumstance allegation of lying in wait, making him eligible for a possible death sentence.
