You’d think getting caught dismembering your neighbor would slow a guy down. But for Robert Durst, that was just Act One. In Part 2 of this deeply twisted two-parter, we pick up with Bob laying low in a cheap Galveston apartment… dressed as a mute woman. Naturally.
From there, it only gets stranger: an HBO documentary crew, a letter with a suspicious typo, a bathroom monologue accidentally caught on a hot mic, and a murder trial decades in the making. We’re talking courtroom drama, a confession disguised as casual mumbling, and one of the wildest cross-examinations in true crime history. (Yes, Frisbee and Uno come up. No, they didn’t exist when he said they did.)
This episode covers The Jinx, the long-awaited trial for Susan Berman’s murder, and the long-overdue indictment in Kathie Durst’s case—plus the jaw-dropping legacy of a man who lied for a living… until the microphone didn’t.
Spoiler alert: He really did kill them all, of course.
