Robert Durst, the millionaire real estate heir, appeared in court again on Tuesday in New Orleans on gun and marijuana charges, and it appears that he'll be extradited to California. He was arrested on a warrant for the 2000 murder of his friend, author Susan Berman.
The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office has said that the charge against the 71-year-old could make him eligible for the death penalty. The case is still under a Los Angeles Police Department investigation.
Durst was the subject of HBO documentary “The Jinx.” The last of six parts aired on Sunday, revealing footage in which Durst whispered to himself: “What the hell did I do? Killed them all, of course.” He’s been connected to several deaths and disappearances throughout his life, including the 1982 disappearance of his wife Kathleen Durst after she divorced him.
