The Jinx Part Two: What happened to Robert Durst?
The documentary comes eight years after The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst.
It was a documentary that true crime fanatics had never witnessed before. An apparent confession, caught on a microphone.
The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst, which originally aired in 2015, is a six-part documentary series that examined the deaths of millionaire Robert Durst's first wife and neighbour.
During the groundbreaking documentary, Durst was shown a letter in his handwriting that implicated him in the murder of his friend Susan Berman, after which he then went to the bathroom and appeared to confess to the crimes.
Still mic'd up for the documentary, Durst was heard saying: "There it is, you're caught... What the hell did I do? Killed them all, of course."
And now, eight years later, comes The Jinx Part Two – in which those behind the documentary investigate Durst's prison calls, new material and interviews from those who only recently came forward.
