In the finale of our Robert Durst series, The Jinx airs and millions of people hear what Bob said in that bathroom. As the episode goes live, the FBI is already tracking Bob—he's on the run again. They arrest him in New Orleans and charge him with Susan Berman's murder.

At trial, prosecutor John Lewin builds his case while Bob's defense team fights back with everything they have. Bob takes the stand for a grueling cross-examination. We follow the trial through to the verdict, Bob's death in prison, and the civil lawsuit that finally forces his wife Debrah to answer questions under oath about what she really knew.

In this episode, Marina examines some medieval torture devices including the Pear of Anguish, the Rack, the Iron Maiden, the Catherine Wheel, and the Judas Cradle. These instruments were used across Europe for interrogation, punishment, and execution, designed to inflict severe pain and maintain social control through fear.

In Part 2, Bob flees to Galveston, Texas disguised as a mute woman named Dorothy Ciner. When his neighbor Morris Black is found dismembered in Galveston Bay, Bob admits to cutting up the body—but claims it was self-defense. With the best lawyers money can buy, he faces a Texas jury.

Years later, filmmaker Andrew Jarecki convinces Bob to sit for interviews for the HBO documentary The Jinx. Bob says things that don't add up. Then Susan Berman's relative discovers a letter that ties Bob directly to her murder. When confronted with the evidence, Bob asks to use the bathroom. His microphone is still on.

The Appalachian mountains have a rich history and are infamous for containing things that go bump in the night. In this episode, we discuss “The Mimic.”

Before he became one of America's most infamous suspects, Robert Durst was the eccentric son of a New York real estate dynasty. In this first installment of our three-part series, we explore the 1982 disappearance of his wife Kathie Durst, the 2000 execution-style murder of his best friend Susan Berman, and Robert's flight to Galveston, Texas, where he lived disguised as a mute woman.

What connects these deaths? And who is the dismembered neighbor whose body parts washed up in Galveston Bay?

In 1983, Tracey Thurman did everything she was supposed to do. She reported threats from her estranged husband, Charles “Buck” Thurman, sought restraining orders, and pleaded for help. Police refused to act—until a brutal attack shocked the nation and reshaped how the law handles domestic violence.

In 1971, a man calling himself Dan Cooper boarded a flight out of Portland, handed a note to a flight attendant, and calmly claimed he had a bomb. What followed became one of the most famous hijackings in American history — a ransom drop, a midnight parachute jump into rough wilderness, and a suspect who vanished without a trace.

Over the next five decades, theories multiplied, evidence surfaced and disappeared, and a mysterious bundle of cash washed up along the Columbia River. Despite one of the longest and most exhaustive investigations the FBI ever launched, the true identity — and fate — of D.B. Cooper remains one of the country’s most enduring unsolved mysteries.

The horrors inside the Knotek home escalate as Shelly’s cruelty consumes everyone around her—family, friends, and anyone who dares to care. In Part 2, Marina covers the final years of Shelly’s reign of abuse and the shocking truth that finally brought it all to light.

From the outside, the Knotek home looked ordinary, just another farmhouse tucked behind the trees on the Washington coast. Inside, though, things were different. Part I traces Shelly Knotek’s path from troubled daughter to abusive wife and mother, as her control and cruelty escalate—ending with the death of family friend Kathy Loreno.

In the fall of 1982, a wave of sudden deaths swept through the Chicago area — healthy people collapsing just hours after taking Extra Strength Tylenol. As panic spread, shelves were cleared, public trust shattered, and investigators raced to find out who had poisoned one of America’s most trusted products.
