In October 2001, the dismembered remains of seventy-one-year-old Morris Black were found floating in Galveston Bay. A few days later, Black's neighbor, Robert Durst, was arrested on suspicion of murder and released on $250,000 bail. After posting bail, Durst jumped bail and disappeared for six weeks, before being arrested by Pennsylvania authorities at the end of November.In the years that followed, investigators and prosecutors began combing through Durst's life, discovering disturbing connections between the excentric millionaire and the mysterious disappearances and deaths of several people who were once close to Durst. Robert Durst had been a suspect in the murder of Morris Black, but was it possible he was in fact a multiple murderer who'd evaded detection for decades?Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAssociated Press. 2001.

9 years after the debut of his remarkable docuseries “The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst”, which included a stunning confession by Durst on a hot mic, acclaimed filmmaker Andrew Jarecki (“Capturing the Friedmans”) is still at it. In April 2024, HBO released the first of his new six-episode series, “The Jinx - Part Two”, an investigation every bit as chilling and riveting as Part One... and maybe even more disturbing. Joining Ken on the pod to talk about his epic saga of the New York real estate tycoon turned murderer, Andrew explores the backstory of Durst's now famous five-word confession (“Killed them all, of course”) and takes us through the Los Angeles trial that found Durst once again trying to beat a murder charge. Along with a fascinating cast of characters, Part Two explores the dark theme of complicity by Durst's family and friends who, time and time again, chose money and loyalty over doing the right thing. One might say about Andrew's quest, “Exposed them all, of course”. “The Jinx - Part Two” is nominated for three Primetime Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series Hidden Gems: “Darwin's Nightmare” “Screwball” Follow: @andrew.jarecki on Instagram @topdocspod on Instagram and twitter/X The Presenting Sponsor of "Top Docs" is Netflix.

Disgraced multimillionaire and real estate heir Robert Durst is dead. • How the murderer's death may keep his victims from finding closure. As someone who confronted my own father over the murder of my mother, I have my own unique take on this conundrum. • I also discuss the similarities between Durst's bizarre behavior compared to my father's. In my opinion, they are both sociopaths. • Authorities believe Durst was behind three killings in three states over four decades, as highlighted in the 2015 HBO documentary series The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst. • As a filmmaker, I also take a look at the impact HBO's series had on the conviction of Robert Durst in the trial over the murder of Susan Berman.

When it comes to digital vigilanteism, what ultimate wages will we have to pay? And how do you feel about mediocrity? [25:37]This week, Aaron, Joey and Jess to talk about rousing public attention, the celebrity amplification effect, the undercurrent of distrust in justice, the fear of being medium, a refrain of the Impressionist problem, and wrestling with workism. They don't talk about what are party pants.referencesHow Discover Magazine compares the earth to a billiard ball (micro-corrections department: it does depend on how you define smoothness) but also comparing earth to a bowling ballThe cost of wrongful accusation in the Boston Marathon bombingDocumentary blitz: "I'll Be Gone in the Dark" about Michelle McNamara on HBO Max, "Surviving R.

Los Angeles Deputy District Attorneys John Lewin, Habib Balian, Ethan Milius, Euguene Miyata, and Rob Britton join the podcast and discuss the prosecution of Robert Durst. In this episode, the prosecutors discuss organizing discovery, preparing clips for cross examination, how they decided who would do opening and closing argument, whether they could prove the case without the cadaver note, changing Durst's catheter bag, what surprised them during Durst's testimony, and who would play John Lewin if they made a movie about this case. The trial of Susan Berman's murder lasted over 4 months, had over 100 witness, had over 180,000 pages of discovery, and over 1,000 clips from interviews and trial footage that were presented to the jury in an organized and seamless way. Durst was tried and convicted of 1st degree murder on September 17, 2021 for the murder of Susan Berman, and the jury agreed Durst killed her because she was a witness in the disappearance of Kathie Durst who Durst allegedly killed in 1982. Durst was sentenced to life without parole on October 14, 2021. Facts:Kathie Durst mysteriously disappears on January 31, 1982. One of the last people to hear from her was the dean of Albert Einstein Medical School, where Kathie allegedly called in sick and said she wasn't going to be able to attend her rotation. In November 2000, it becomes public that the police reopened the investigation into Kathie Durst's disappearance. On December 24, 2000, a woman named Susan Berman is found murdered execution style in her home in Los Angeles. Who was Susan Berman? A close friend of Robert Durst and the daughter of a mobster. She was also someone who told others that she in fact placed the call to the dean of the med school and pretended to be Kathie, thus creating an alibi for Robert Durst. The police later receive a note postmarked December 23, 2000, saying there was a “cadaver” at Susan's address in Beverly Hills, except “Beverly” is misspelled as “Beverley.” On October 9, 2001, body parts of a person named Morris Black are found floating in Galveston Bay, Texas. Durst is arrested that day but posts bail and skips his hearing, only to be arrested a month later for shoplifting a sandwich. Durst is acquitted of murder on a claim of self-defense, even though Durst admitted to dismembering Morris Black after Black was shot and killed during a struggle with Durst. A movie called “All Good Things” starring Ryan Gosling is released and is essentially a rendition of the crimes by Durst. After seeing the movie, Durst reaches out to the makers of the film and sings them praise, saying it's essentially accurate. The makers of that film make The Jinx: The LIfe and Deaths of Robert Durst in 2015, where Durst sits down for an interview that lasted 20 hours over the course of several years. During the filming of The Jinx, the makers confront Durst with the writing of “Beverley” on the cadaver note and comparing it to a letter that Durst himself wrote to Susan Berman in the past (known as the "Sareb letter" after her son Sareb found the letter). It's written the same way and Beverley is misspelled the same way. At the end of the documentary, Durst is caught on a hot mic and says “There it is. You're caught. What did you do? Killed them all of course.”On March 14, 2015, Durst is arrested in New Orleans and had a loaded .38 caliber revolver with one spent shell casing, 5 ounces of marijuana, $42K in cash, his passport, maps of Louisiana, Florida, and Cuba, and a flesh toned latex map. Police later discovered an additional $117K in cash sent by a friend. Durst eventually pled guilty to a federal firearm charge and then was extradited to California to face charges of the murder of Susan Berman.Laws on the Books:Each episode we look at the laws on the books. 3 are real, 1 is fake. Can you guess which one is the fake?A. In New York, it is illegal to commit adultery.B. In Galveston, Texas, it is illegal to bury a body except in a cemetery.C. In Beverly Hills, it is illegal for a person to discover a body or acquire the first knowledge of the death of a person and fail to report it.D. In Louisiana, it's illegal to wear a facial disguise calculated to conceal one's identity (except during specified activities such as Halloween, Mardi Gras, etc.).

(对红包的英文表述选自新华网。) Lucky 4:叫做lucky的两首情歌。一首是轻快风,Exo的lucky,”So lucky to have you.” 一首温暖风,Colbie Caillat的Lucky, “Lucky I'm in love with my best friend. Lucky to have been where I have been. Lucky to be coming home again. ”。让人想起520day,想起表示love的四个数字是8023. Lucky 5:一部迷你剧纪录片The Jinx(厄运),评分高达9.3分,,由幸运的又不幸运的Robert·Durst(罗伯特·德斯特)主演的. From Andrew Jarecki and Marc Smerling, comes The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst, a six-part examination of the reclusive millionaire at the heart of three killings spanning four decades. Robert Durst, the scion of a New York real estate empire, has long been a suspect in the notorious 1982 disappearance of his wife, Kathie. Further suspicion was raised with the unsolved killing of his confidante, Susan Berman, thought to be a key witness in the investigation into Kathie's disappearance in 2000, as well as the subsequent killing and dismemberment of a neighbor in Galveston, Texas. Durst has consistently maintained his innocence and remains a free man today.
Kathryn interviews writer and producer Joel Silberman, author of the LA Times article “Why do we love to watch psychopaths?” The success of HBO's “The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst” and shows like CSI, Dexter, and The Blacklist prove that audiences everywhere are drawn to the in's and out's of manipulation, psychology and murder. But why? Silberman poses this question to actors, authors, producers, and psychologists in the entertainment industry to find out why do we love to watch psychopaths. Kathryn also interviews peripheral nerve surgeon Dr. Richard Jacoby, author of “Sugar Crush: How to Reduce Inflammation, Reverse Nerve Damage, and Reclaim Good Health”. A diet full of sugar and carbohydrates can be linked to severe, life-threatening diseases such as heart disease, Alzheimer's, MS, and cancer. In “Sugar Crush”, Dr. Jacoby puts forth the groundbreaking argument that carbohydrates (sugar) + trauma = nerve damage, pain, and dysfunction.

Our liars are the lobbyists and spin doctors profiled in "Merchants of Doubt." Our working girl is "Cinderella," who serves her evil stepmother and stepsisters, but dreams of better things. Our aging gangster is Liam Neeson, in "Run All Night" (a movie eerily similar to "Taken"). Our millionaire murderer is the subject of the new HBO documentary miniseries "The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst." And our adoptee in need of Movie Therapy is Katie, who's recently been reintroduced to her birth mother. All this, plus trivia are in this week's Movie Date podcast!
