The arrest of Robert Durst, the subject of the HBO documentary series “The Jinx,” has been shrouded in confusion due to the fact that his infamous “killed them all” confession did not air until the finale. However, the first episode of Season 2 sheds light on the timeline of events, revealing that an investigation into Durst’s involvement in the murder of his friend Susan Berman had been ongoing long before the documentary aired.
In 2015, ‘The Jinx’ director Andrew Jarecki narrowly avoided an encounter with Robert Durst, the subject of his bombshell documentary, outside his New York apartment. Despite concerns, a doorman’s misplaced car allayed his fears. Jarecki defended his editing of Durst’s confession, which ultimately contributed to Durst’s conviction. ‘The Jinx – Part Two’ will explore the aftermath of the documentary and Durst’s trial.
