RIP. Was he trespassing?
You are irrelevant.
Since people usually fall straight down rather than sideways, it seems like it shouldn’t be too difficult to figure out where he fell from and home in on the other party in the argument. This may or may not have been a homicide, but detectives need to hear both sides of the story.
Garrans homicide if we believe the witness statement as the other party within the argument hasn’t come forth.
