Turns out you can sorta get away with killing you obviously did, as long as you don't admit it on a HBO documentary, if you are rich. A+ legal system

@mclovinlife4018 Рік тому

I mean, we need to change the way jury’s look at cases. Circumstantial evidence needs to be taken more seriously. There’s no such thing as three mysteries deaths of people close to the defendant and on top of that he admitted to killing one, dismembering his body, tampering with the evidence and then going back to take the head, because he knew it would disprove his story. I mean come the fucccc on

@tabelaskade4888 10 місяців тому

Even when you’re not rich, all you gotta do is shut the hell up. There’s a British show that follows police officers daily life in a police station and one guy was accused of murder, there were even witnesses. He didn’t say one word and asked for a state appointed attorney, even with the attorney there he kept saying no comment. When I tell you that man literally got away with murder. Silence is truly golden, Robert also go away with murder until he opened his mouth

Have you seen any interviews with Durst's extremely intelligent, gifted, charismatic defense lawyer for the Galveston case? You should.

@lexapro834 6 місяців тому

You should watch “The Jury Speaks” and the episode on Durst. It’s very obvious that there was some severe jury tampering going on, particularly from one juror who more or less struck up a friendship with Durst. Very insightful.

@fishjj76 3 місяці тому

Don't blame the juror's. Blame the prosecutors who failed to prepare properly and who didn't ask Durst basic questions when he was on the stand. They dropped the ball.

@hamilcross 3 місяці тому

@@fishjj76 or we can blame all parties involved. why choose?

@fishjj76 3 місяці тому

@@lexapro834 I've seen that episode of "The Jury Speaks". There is no evidence that any of the jurors had any sort of compromising relationship before or during the trial. That juror/Durst friendship came after the trial. The reason the prosecution lost the case is that they were not prepared for the defence. They expected Durst to argue an insanity defence. Cody Cazales, the police detective in this case conceded the defence case was "brilliant".

@amritbanga380 Рік тому

The Jinx was phenomenal

@tzvikrasner6073 Рік тому

Though it was written ten years before his indictment, I've always thought that the villain in J.D. Robb's "Celebrity in Death" was based on Durst. The character is a successful movie producer who turns out throughout his life to have killed various people in furtherance of his own career, from his college roomate to his father-in-law and an actress he had an affair with.

No thank you. It's overdone, and its also ghastly that the nauseating details are still being combed over when the victims' families are still alive to accidentally stumble across them while just looking for something to watch like anybody else. I wish late night comedy shows would stop making jokes about it for a good thirty years.

This case should show every one that our courts r messed up. It's not about guilt or innocent it's about how much money you have. Yea in the end finally but how long did it take.
