The man charged with murder after New Zealander Warriena Wright fell to her death from a Gold Coast balcony has lashed out at prosecutors and the media on social media.

Gable Tostee was released from prison on parole at the weekend, after serving six months for an unrelated drunken high-speed chase in July 2014.

That incident happened a month before Ms Wright died.

Overnight, Tostee penned a missive on Facebook maintaining his innocence and suggesting he'd been the victim of a witch-hunt after Ms Wright's death.

"It has been almost a year since the tragic incident occurred at my apartment and I don't think I will ever adjust to the nightmarish reality that I wake up to each day," he wrote.

"The fact that I was charged with murder after someone attacked me in my own home after refusing to leave then caused their own death by climbing off my balcony is sheer lunacy and it boggles my mind that prosecuting authorities are allowed to freely throw unsubstantiated charges at people with absolutely no regard to the damage it does to real peoples' lives," he added.

"It is disturbing and wrong."

Tostee and Ms Wright met on dating app Tinder last August, while Ms Wright was in Australia for a friend's wedding.

They went to Tostee's 14th-floor apartment for drinks. But police alleged the date took a nasty turn and Ms Wright was fearing for her life when she tried climbing down to a balcony below Tostee's, slipped and fell to her death.

Tostee denied murder and claimed after he was granted bail in November, prosecutors immediately tried to bargain with him to plead guilty to manslaughter.

"Needless to say I will not plead to something I did not do. I never harmed that girl nor intended for her to get hurt in any way, let alone ever imagined that it would end in such a horrific way. I constantly grieve for her," he continued.

"The media has been absolutely disgraceful in its gross misrepresentation and selective reporting of this matter and seems to be more intent on creating a fictional monster and inciting hatred than it does on reporting the truth."

Tostee said he'd been the victim of a "deplorable" campaign of "hatred and harassment" against him.

"I may not be a saint, but I have never harmed anybody, nor would I ever dream of hurting a woman and everyone who knows me personally knows I am nothing like the villain fabricated by the media," he continued.
