According to the ruling announced this Friday by a jury, Durst shot Berman at his home in Los Angeles because the woman had witnessed another crime.

Berman, the daughter of a Las Vegas mobster, was a spokesperson for Durst after he became a suspect in Kathleen’s disappearance.

Durst was never charged in his wife’s case but was arrested in 2015 at a New Orleans hotel for Berman’s murder, hours after the last episode of the HBO documentary “The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst.

Durst denied murdering his first wife and, later, Berman. But under questioning, Durst testified that he would perjure himself if he had killed them. Lewin led Durst to admit he committed perjury five times during the trial, which resumed in May after a 14-month delay due to the pandemic.

Durst’s adventures were captured in the HBO documentary series “The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst “, a program directed by Andrew Jarecki that Durst himself proposed to the director, eager that someone would let him tell his story.

Durst is one of the heirs of a prosperous New York family that grew rich from the real estate business, although in 1994 his father chose his younger brother Douglas to take over the family business.
