Robert Durst
Robert Durst, heir to a New York real estate empire, was convicted in 2021 of the first-degree murder of his close friend Susan Berman, who was killed in 2000 to prevent her from speaking to investigators about the 1982 disappearance of Durst's first wife, Kathie McCormack. Previously acquitted in the 2003 killing of neighbor Morris Black in Galveston, Texas, Durst's decades of evading justice ended after the HBO documentary The Jinx captured him making incriminating statements on a hot microphone. He died in prison on January 10, 2022, at age 78, while serving a life sentence without parole.
