Ep 178: The Robert Durst Trial (Part 1)

In 1982, Kathie McCormack Durst, wife of real estate heir Robert Durst, disappeared. 

In 2000, Susan Berman, a close friend of Robert Durst, was murdered in her home. 

In 2001, Morris Black, a neighbor of Robert Durst, was shot and killed by Durst in what Durst called "self-defense."

While prosecutors believe Robert Durst is responsible for the demise of all three victims, they finally set out to get justice for Susan Berman in 2021.
