Gable Tostee is an Australian man well known for being acquitted for the murder of Warriena Tagpuno Wright. In 2019, he went on a Tinder date with a woman who called the police on him when she found out about the murder case. ^[2]

Tostee made headlines after New Zealanders Warriena Tagpuno Wright plunged to her death from his Gold Coast 14-storey apartment block on August 8, 2014 after meeting up with the him through Tinder.^[11] Wright, on holiday on the Gold Coast from New Zealand, had met Tostee for the first time that night. They had made contact on the Tinder a week earlier.^[12]

From the moment Tostee was charged with Wright’s murder on August 15, 2014, a week after her fatal fall, he protested his innocence.^[11]

The key piece of evidence in the trial was a 199-minute mobile recording made by Tostee that captured the pair’s increasingly fractious interaction, including the moment Wright fell to her death.

Up to 45 seconds of Tostee’s recording captured sounds that prosecutors said were consistent with him choking Wright, which Tostee denied.^[12]

The crown alleged that Tostee had left Wright in such a state of fear and intimidation that she felt the only way to escape was by climbing over the railing of the balcony after he locked her outside.

But defence lawyers said Tostee had used reasonable force to subdue Wright, who had become "increasingly erratic" after several hours’ drinking.^[12]

The jury of six men and six women spent four days deliberating before reaching a verdict of not guilty of murder or manslaughter.^[12] Tostee was acquitted of murder and manslaughter in 2016.^[11]

Tostee was asleep at a Logan home early on December 31, 2019 when police arrived to remove him from the premises.

The woman, who he had met on Tinder, called police after he revealed he was found not guilty over the 2014 death of New Zealand woman Warriena Tagpuno Wright.^[7]

Tostee was not arrested or charged over the alleged incident.^[7]

He told The Courier-Mail he did not believe the woman had indicated she wanted him to leave. He claimed she said to him words to the effect of, "I've done some reading on you and you’ve got me on edge", as police arrived.^[7]
