The most clever question Jarecki asked was, "Which one did you NOT write?" Exraordinary.

A brilliant moment for all watching after all the trepidation about how to present the letter. That the team came up with that strategy blew my mind! It was a stunner! And did Jarecki plan for the mic to remain on in the bathroom or was it just luck? Durst's idiosyncracy of talking to himself finally undid him! The whole series was a brilliant study of a narcissistic psychopathic personality. Thank you, Jarecki!

Filmmakers like Andrew Jarecki serve society in so many ways. This is one outstanding example. I read a book about Durst many years ago that made a very strong case for his guilt in all three murders and wondered if he would ever be brought to justice. I was happy to hear that he had been found guilty.
His lawyers all treat him like a long lost brother. The power of money I guess.
Just when you think Bob’s looking pretty bad they throw up another pic of him looking even worse.

So true
There was this moment in an earlier episode where Jarecki says to Bob Durst that police had placed him in California at the time of the murder. And Bob Durst responds with "California is a big state" and then he makes this kind of evil smile like "I got away with it" kind of smile. It was chilling. That's what removed any question in my mind, even before the last episode. The last episode was just crossing the t's.

If you like a couple other cases that also have as many twists and turns, check out the documentary Who Took Johnny..(When finished w the documentary, check out the radio interview w the mother for all the stuff that didn't make it into the documentary on you tube ) And the other is Chris's Watts. First case where the interview was available almost right away. It's truly the most horrific case that's recent and with fantastic coverage. There is even a two part video on yiu tube of him being interviewed again by the detectives that put him in jail.

I would love to see the reactions and thoughts of all those people who have been trying to catch this slippery snake over the years to his murder conviction. What would gilberte have thought? RIP
I think that if an inmate has money like him his estate should cover the cost of his incarceration. I mean if you go into a nursing home Medicaid takes your property , this is basically a nursing home with BARS
Too bad we never got to see Durst reaction. Also with all his money the state has to pay all his expenses.

Who could actually chop up/dispose of another human being and be human themselves.
Well, he went back to the house he lived in with Kathleen. After each crime basically....And yet noone really did an extensive search of that property house and the land surrounding it . All bodies of water since that is his thing. If a person has a stomach to dismember a human body lie he confessed to doing then obviously he has the guts to kill a human body before cutting one up.. what the hell is wrong with people back then . I'm glad he is getting behind bars .
Im from League city, 23 miles south of Galveston Tx. When i was 18, in the year 2001, I became friends with a lifeguard . We were together when that one day , body parts were being pulled from the water . Ill never forget seeing a leg cut over the knee. This was right after 9/11 and it kinda got buried under the headlines. Ricky, my lifeguard friend, had good sense and had taken a picture of it with a camera. Many years later, we still remain friends, and just a Few years back, he had come across the photo, snapped a pic with his cell camera and sent it to me. It was then, I wanted to explore the story of Robert Durst and watch the jinx.
So, there are parts of the story that has not been in the documentary or is widely known, so there is a part when Robert says that he wants to "Igor" his younger brother. Well many years ago Robert had 7 dogs, all the same breed and he name them all Igor and they mysteriously disappeared. His brother Douglas claims that Robert killed those dogs, as he was practicing how to dismember a body. There are more parts of the story, you can fact check this.
Thank you director! But for you justice was dead. Hats off!
'You are Correct sir'
I can not not like or sympathize with this dude. It’s a weird feeling knowing what he has done. That might just be the spell that everyone falls under and if so I 100 % get how he can «fool» them. I mean Susan never stopped hanging out with him, even though it was obvious he did something to Kathy and killed Morris, he’s so good at establishing trust and he’s honest to just the right degree but without telling you everything. Just to keep you happy,
why did his lawyers let him answer that question that started with "If..."?

I agree with how the prosecution presented the case and by and large do agree with their timeline and version of events. One thing that no one, either in the courtroom or media have said that I believe is true, is that I believe Berman was kind of lightly blackmailing Durst ever since the mid to late 80’s for money since her writing career never really took off and she couldn’t let go of the high life so she blackmailed her old best friend for money that Durst was I’m sure more than happy to abide by at the beginning, but as time went on and years went by I get the feeling Berman’s requests for money became more like demands and/or veiled threats of bringing up his ex wife. I think by the time 2000 came around, Durst, though obviously still having enough money, was tired of Berman always blowing him up for cash, and even though LE has said there was no active reopening into the disappearance of McCormack in 2000, there were whispers of it, and it’s been confirmed that Berman never had contact with anyone in LE about anyone wanting to speak with her about McCormack so her telling Durst that was an obvious lie to get him to feel scared and hopefully to keep some money flowing to her. But the prosecutors were ultimately right when they said “she sealed her own fate” by calling Durst and saying police were contacting her about his ex wife. He flew out to LA, and the rest is history. I don’t blame Berman, may she Rest In Peace absolutely, but had she been able to sever ties with Durst financially years prior, she would’ve never found herself face down in a pool of her own blood. I don’t know, just my personal take on it, I’m from the Galveston area, the place where Durst was hiding out, chopped up his neighbor and threw him into the Bay out here, and only was acquitted because our D.A. down here is about as useless as tits on a bull. Glad Durst is getting his justice, just too bad it’s in California instead of here in Texas.

Two clear statements made by Durst, himself, cinched it. I have my view of it all... Even with those statements, I didn’t think it would result in a conviction.
Looks like Durst got a new insurance plan, changed to "Colonial", ...... oops meant "State Penn" :)
That’s not even the point. Let me tell you murdering another human being is wrong
Life's already serving the man. I think your conviction is a bit late.
So all u had to do is fix a mic on him unless he defended himself saying some one immitated his voice and recorded it ...throw some of his childhood photos and keep a straight face while lieing just to be sure .
Its not clear to me what he said, "mumble mumble mumble killed them all, of course." Supposedly he said, "What the hell did I do, killed them all of course" But, overall evidence seems strong.
"Thank you California for taking care of me and all this medical stuff at the end of my life"
wonder if Robert is my Dad inheritance would come in handy
Sarcasm could be ...the of course...like "yeah right" I think to take this as an confession is a bit fishy...but the letter and the cadaver note are spot on!
what would have happen if he didn't go to the bathroom ? would he be free ? this old head sure has a unique way of lying + keeping his face straight , it's kinda scary to have these pro skills in lying shoutout to andro for doing what the police couldn't do .
did he call him BOB or did i miss something... isnt it Rob ?

Very late he was able to live he's full life and now about die afther killing all he's victims . To me there is no justice here just a verdict of guilty by law .
It was probably all lies he told the film makers. He has been convicted and that should be it.

And he'll be dead anyway soon from cancer so in a sense living free as long as he did he pretty close to gets away with it all
Collapses.
Charming ? not sure I would see that
I wonder if he would be deaf and blid, how could he be sentensed and attend court, but would there be any point even to put him to prison, even now is there any point to do this trial when he has just maybe couple years left of life

How did it take 40 years? That's your question really 😆 🤣 😂 The hundreds of millions the family had.....Plus his "Power-house" father who was protecting him!!! *However, I'd be willing to bet $ that hid brother was helpful in assisting with the case moving forward AFTER the death of their Father!!!* Because that family is all about $$$ And his part of family fortune would get distributed back into the family's trusts accordingly. 😅🤣🤣🤣*
There are 36 currently ACTIVE "Robert Dursts'. " And who knows how many that lived and died undetected. So you might convict one.....
One thing is for sure. The police did a terrible job. They are so incompetent. The movies never lie on how they are portrait. They will only realized it when it's too damn late. 🤣🤣🤣

Nah he was convicted because he was in the room where the shooting happened within 8 hours of it happening. From 3000 miles away randomly dropping in at that exact moment, not the day before or after, or any other 365 days of the year. What do you suppose are the odds of that being just a coincidence? Remember the killer had to be one of her close friends because she was hanging out and didn’t see it coming (not an intruder).
