12 Crimes of Christmas - "THE JINX: HOW ROBERT DURST GOT AWAY WITH MURDER FOR 40 YEARS - PART 1"
Reid Carter exposes how real estate heir Robert Durst evaded justice for four decades while bodies piled up around him. January 31, 1982: His wife Kathie disappeared three months before graduating medical school - she told friends "if anything happens to me, don't let Bob get away with it." Durst claimed he dropped her at a train station. Never seen again. Police never searched their cottage. Someone called her school the next day pretending to be Kathie - investigators believe it was Susan Berman, who would become Durst's second victim eighteen years later. The billion-dollar heir's bloody trail begins here.

Christmas series. Yesterday we wrapped up the John Benet Ramsey case.

00:00:19.559 --> 00:00:22.320
Today and tomorrow a billionaire heir who got away with
5
00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:25.359
murder for forty years because justice isn't black or white,
6
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:29.879
It's green. Robert Durst born April twelfth, nineteen forty three,
7
00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:33.200
eldest son of Seymour Durst, whose family owned one of
8
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:36.719
the most powerful real estate empires in Manhattan, the Durst
9
00:00:36.799 --> 00:00:43.000
Organization skyscrapers billions of dollars old money New York Royalty.
10
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:47.119
Three people connected to Robert Durst ended up dead, his
11
00:00:47.240 --> 00:00:50.399
wife Kathy, who vanished in nineteen eighty two and was
12
00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:55.119
never found. His best friend Susan Berman, shot execution style
13
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:59.240
on Christmas Eve two thousand. His neighbor, Morris Black, dismembered
14
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:02.200
and dumped in Galls Elveston Bay in two thousand and one.
15
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:07.079
For decades, Durst walked free, money, bought the best lawyers, status,
16
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:12.280
deflected suspicion, connections, made problems disappear. The system that's supposed
17
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:16.519
to protect victims instead protected him. Then came a documentary,
18
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:21.519
an HBO series called The Jinx and a hot microphone
19
00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:25.000
that caught Robert Durst whispering to himself in a bathroom,
20
00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:28.400
what the hell did I do? Killed them? All of course,
21
00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:34.879
killed them all of course. September twenty twenty one, Durst
22
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:38.719
was finally convicted of murdering Susan Berman, sentenced to life
23
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:44.159
without parole, charged with Kathy's murder. Shortly after January tenth,
24
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:47.879
twenty twenty two, he died in prison at seventy eight
25
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:51.480
years old. Took his secrets to the grave, never revealed
26
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:55.640
where Kathy's body is buried. I'm reed, Carter, This is
27
00:01:55.719 --> 00:02:02.560
Celebrity Trials Today, Part one. Cormick Durst, twenty nine years old,
28
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:06.239
three months from becoming a doctor, told her friends exactly
29
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:10.759
what would happen if she disappeared. Then she disappeared. Someone
30
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:19.159
has to say her name. Kathleen McCormick was born June fifteenth,
31
00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:22.599
nineteen fifty two. Grew up in New Hyde Park, Long Island,
32
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:26.639
working class family. Her father was a telephone company account
33
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:30.680
representative World War II veteran. Her mother, Anne, would live
34
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:32.840
to be one hundred and two years old, dying in
35
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:36.319
twenty fifteen, still not knowing what happened to her youngest daughter.
36
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:42.039
Cathy was driven, ambitious, went to nursing school first, then
37
00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:45.319
decided that wasn't enough. She wanted to be a doctor,
38
00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:50.680
a pediatrician, help babies and children. She enrolled at Albert
39
00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:54.240
Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx, fourth year student
40
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:58.199
three months from graduating when she vanished. In nineteen seventy one,
41
00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:01.960
Cathy was twenty years old, working in Manhattan, living in
42
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:04.560
a walk up apartment. Met a man at a party,
43
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:09.879
Robert Durst, twenty eight years old, longish hair, intense, wealthy,
44
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:14.919
beyond imagination. The attraction was immediate. After two dates, Durst
45
00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:18.240
invited Kathy to move into his house in Vermont. She did.
46
00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:21.240
They opened a health food store together called All Good
47
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:26.560
Things Hippy Dream, But Durst's father had other plans. Seymour
48
00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:29.520
Durst pressured his son to return to New York, joined
49
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:33.719
the family business, stopped playing bohemian, so they moved to Manhattan.
50
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:38.840
Got married on April twelfth, nineteen seventy three, Durst's thirtieth birthday.
51
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:42.479
Kathy was twenty. The wedding gift was an entry into
52
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:46.159
one of New York's wealthiest families, but something was wrong
53
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:49.960
from the beginning. Cathy's friends and family describe a controlling,
54
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:53.879
abusive husband, a man who dictated what she wore, where
55
00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:57.360
she went, who she saw, A man whose temper flared
56
00:03:57.400 --> 00:04:02.479
without warning. Eleanor Joy Schwank, Kathy's nursing school classmate, received
57
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:08.199
phone calls Kathy telling her Bobby is really violent. Schwank
58
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:11.360
said she never witnessed it herself, but Kathy told her
59
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:15.879
it was physical. At a McCormick family gathering, Durst yanked
60
00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:18.680
Kathy by the hair because she wasn't ready to leave
61
00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:23.920
in front of her family. Didn't care who saw. Another time,
62
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:26.920
he stormed into their apartment where Cathy was talking with
63
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:30.120
friends and kicked an acquaintance in the face. That man
64
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:34.480
later sued Durst and settled. Three weeks before Cathy disappeared,
65
00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:38.240
she was treated at Jacoby Medical Center in the bronx bruises,
66
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:42.519
head injuries facial trauma suffered during an argument with her husband.
67
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:47.319
She refused to file charges. Kathy wanted children, Durst didn't.
68
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:51.040
According to friends, He pressured her into having an abortion
69
00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:54.680
in the late nineteen seventies, Durst later claimed the child
70
00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:58.240
wasn't his anyway. By nineteen eighty two, the marriage was
71
00:04:58.279 --> 00:05:02.439
over in everything but paperwork. Kathy was preparing divorce documents.
72
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:05.199
She was about to become a doctor, would be able
73
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:09.279
to support herself, wouldn't need Durst's money anymore, and Robert
74
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:14.120
Durst was losing control. Cathy told her friends something chilling,
75
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:19.480
something specific, something that would haunt investigators for forty years.
76
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:22.879
If anything happens to me, don't let Bob get away
77
00:05:22.920 --> 00:05:26.439
with it. She knew. She knew exactly what her husband
78
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:29.879
was capable of, knew exactly what might happen, told the
79
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:32.519
people closest to her to watch out, to not let
80
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:37.639
him escape consequences, and then, on January thirty first, nineteen
81
00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:41.600
eighty two, Kathy McCormick Durst vanished from the face of
82
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:56.079
the earth. January thirty first, nineteen eighty two, Sunday evening,
83
00:05:57.040 --> 00:05:59.199
Kathy attended a dinner party at the home of her
84
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:05.160
closest friend, Gilbert Najami, in Newtown, Connecticut. Najami noticed something
85
00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:10.480
strange immediately. Kathy was wearing sweatpants, casual clothes that wasn't
86
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:14.680
like her. Kathy usually dressed up took care of her appearance,
87
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:20.439
but that night she looked disheveled, upset. Around seven pm,
88
00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:23.959
Kathy received a phone call from her husband. They argued.
89
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:28.160
Whatever Robert said on that call, it rattled her. The
90
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:31.000
rest of the evening, Kathy talked to Najami about her
91
00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:35.079
failing marriage, about the abuse, about her fears. Then Kathy
92
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:38.439
said something to her best friend that Najami never forgot,
93
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:41.920
asked her to investigate if anything happened to her. If
94
00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:46.879
anything happened to her, investigate. Kathy left the party, said
95
00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:49.279
she was returning to the couple's cottage on Hoyt Street
96
00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:52.199
in South Salem, New York, a small town about an
97
00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:55.839
hour north of Manhattan. According to Robert Durst, here's what
98
00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:59.439
happened next. He drove Kathy to the Katona train station,
99
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:03.319
boarded a train to Manhattan, headed for their penthouse apartment.
100
00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:06.000
He spoke to her on a payphone later that night.
101
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:09.600
She confirmed she'd arrived safely. That was the last time
102
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:13.360
anyone ever saw Kathy McCormick Durst. But here's the problem
103
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:16.639
with Robert Durst's story. It was a lie, all of it.
104
00:07:16.959 --> 00:07:19.879
Kathy never arrived in Manhattan, never got on that train.
105
00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:23.160
The doorman at their building never saw her. Nobody saw
106
00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:26.600
her after she left Gilbert Njami's house. The next day,
107
00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:31.040
February first, someone called Albert Einstein College of Medicine. A
108
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:35.000
woman's voice claimed to be Kathy Durst said she was
109
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:38.560
sick and wouldn't be attending classes that week. That call
110
00:07:38.680 --> 00:07:42.319
was critical. It made investigators believe Kathy had made it
111
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:46.879
back to Manhattan was alive on February first, directed the
112
00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:50.279
entire investigation toward the city instead of where Kathy was
113
00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:55.000
actually last seen. South Salem. Prosecutors would later argue that
114
00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:59.680
call was made by Susan Berman, Durst's best friend from UCLA,
115
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:05.000
posing as Kathy, creating an alibi for Robert eighteen years
116
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:09.199
before Berman herself would be murdered. Robert Durst didn't report
117
00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:13.839
his wife missing until February fifth, five days after she vanished,
118
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:17.759
only called police after the medical school dean contacted him
119
00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:21.240
wondering why Kathy hadn't been to class all week. When
120
00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:24.720
police asked Durst about the delay, he said he figured
121
00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:28.600
she was out someplace having fun, suggested maybe drug use
122
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:31.879
was to blame. It hadn't occurred to me that anything
123
00:08:31.920 --> 00:08:35.840
had happened to her. His wife of nine years disappears
124
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:39.039
for five days, doesn't show up to the medical school.
125
00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:42.120
She was three months from graduating, and it didn't occur
126
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:45.080
to him that anything had happened. Make it make sense,
127
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:49.600
Gilbert Najami started calling police immediately after Kathy missed their
128
00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:53.639
scheduled meeting. She knew something was wrong. She'd heard Cathy
129
00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:57.600
say to investigate if anything happened, and now something had happened.
130
00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:02.120
But police focused on Manhattan because that's where Durst said
131
00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:04.840
Kathy was headed. That's where the phone call to the
132
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:08.639
medical school came from. The investigation was derailed from day
133
00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:13.679
one by durst'slies. The cottage in South Salem. Police didn't
134
00:09:13.720 --> 00:09:17.120
conduct a thorough search, didn't treat it like a crime scene,
135
00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:20.320
just accepted Durst's word that Kathy had left for the
136
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:25.120
train station. Najami took matters into her own hands. Every week,
137
00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:28.600
she drove to the Durst's cottage, went through their garbage,
138
00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:32.399
found some of Kathy's belongings that had been discarded, found
139
00:09:32.440 --> 00:09:36.559
handwritten notes from Robert. She collected everything, built her own file.
140
00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:42.879
Then something strange happened. Najami's home was burglarized another friend
141
00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:46.240
of Kathy's was also burglarized. The files they'd been keeping
142
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:50.080
about Kathy's case were among the items stolen. Those burglaries
143
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:54.320
remain unsolved. The files were never recovered. Robert Durst sold
144
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:58.000
the South Salem cottage in nineteen ninety Whatever evidence might
145
00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:00.320
have been there, whatever might have explained what ha happened
146
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:04.720
to Cathy, was gone. For seventeen years, the case went cold.
147
00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:10.320
Kathy McCormick Durst was simply missing, presumed dead but never proven,
148
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:15.679
never found, never explained, and Robert Durst went on living
149
00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:19.320
his life inheriting millions when his father died in nineteen
150
00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:25.799
ninety five, drifting across the country using aliases disguises, living
151
00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:30.279
among the homeless, sometimes wealthy beyond measure, but hiding from
152
00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:34.200
the world until nineteen ninety nine, when a state police
153
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:38.639
investigator named Joseph Bessera received a tip and decided to
154
00:10:38.639 --> 00:10:41.200
take another look at the twenty year old disappearance of
155
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:45.080
a medical student who'd warned her friends exactly what would happen.
156
00:10:47.159 --> 00:10:50.159
We'll be right back with what happened when investigators reopened
157
00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:53.039
the case in nineteen ninety nine, and the Christmas Eve
158
00:10:53.120 --> 00:11:09.559
murder that followed. Just one year later, nineteen ninety nine,
159
00:11:10.120 --> 00:11:13.759
New York State Police investigator Joseph Bessera received a tip
160
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:18.399
about Kathy Durst's nineteen eighty two disappearance. Someone claimed to
161
00:11:18.440 --> 00:11:22.559
know what had happened. Bessara started digging. He discovered what
162
00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:26.840
Gilbert Najami and Cathy's family had known for seventeen years.
163
00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:31.960
The original investigation was botched. Police accepted Durst's story at
164
00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:36.919
face value, never properly searched the South Salem cottage, never
165
00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:40.879
treated Robert as the obvious suspect he was. Bessarah interviewed
166
00:11:40.879 --> 00:11:44.120
witnesses again, found that stories had changed over the years.
167
00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:47.399
Some people were willing to talk now who hadn't been before.
168
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:51.879
The case needed another look. In November two thousand, the
169
00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:56.799
investigation became public. Media attention returned to Robert Durst. The
170
00:11:56.919 --> 00:12:00.000
name that had faded from headlines was suddenly everywhere again.
171
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:04.360
The wealthy heir, the missing wife, the questions that never
172
00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:08.360
got answered, and Robert Durst panicked. The same month the
173
00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:11.919
investigation went public, Durst rented a three hundred dollar a
174
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:15.799
month apartment in Galveston, Texas, a crummy fourplex in a
175
00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:19.200
run down neighborhood halfway between the Gulf of Mexico and
176
00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:22.879
Galveston Bay, a place where nobody would recognize a Manhattan
177
00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:26.879
real estate air But Durst didn't rent the apartment as himself.
178
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:30.960
He assumed the identity of Dorothy Sinner, a real woman,
179
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:35.200
his former classmate from Scarsdale High School class of nineteen
180
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:39.240
sixty one. She hadn't seen him in forty years, had
181
00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:42.720
no idea he was using her name. Dorothy Sinner was
182
00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:46.799
a mute woman. That's what Durst told his landlord, communicated
183
00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:52.440
through handwritten notes. Wore women's clothing, a wig, dresses, high heels,
184
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:56.559
complete disguise. The wealthy heir to a billion dollar real
185
00:12:56.639 --> 00:12:59.759
estate empire was living in a three hundred dollar apartment
186
00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:03.759
dressed as a mute woman because investigators were finally asking
187
00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:08.399
questions about his missing wife. On December eleventh, two thousand,
188
00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:11.919
while hiding in Galveston, Durst secretly married New York real
189
00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:15.679
estate broker Deborah Cheriton. They'd been dating on and off
190
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:20.360
for years. The marriage was kept quiet, no announcement, no celebration,
191
00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:26.200
just paperwork. Two weeks later, investigators wanted to interview Susan Berman,
192
00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:31.039
Durst's best friend from UCLA, the mobster's daughter who'd served
193
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:35.159
as his unofficial spokesperson after Cathy disappeared in nineteen eighty two,
194
00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:38.360
the woman prosecutors believe made that fake phone call to
195
00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:42.960
the medical school. Berman was going to talk to police. Finally,
196
00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:48.519
after eighteen years, she knew something. Everyone was sure of it.
197
00:13:49.080 --> 00:13:52.720
She'd helped Durst cover up Cathy's disappearance, and now she
198
00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:56.399
was going to tell investigators what really happened. Susan Berman
199
00:13:56.639 --> 00:14:00.000
never made it to that interview. December twenty third, two thousand,
200
00:14:00.679 --> 00:14:04.399
the day before Christmas Eve, someone walked into Susan Berman's
201
00:14:04.399 --> 00:14:07.279
home in Benedict Canyon, Los Angeles. Found her in the
202
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:09.919
living room, raised a gun, put it to the back
203
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:13.960
of her head, pulled the trigger, execution style, close range
204
00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:20.360
single gunshot professional clean. The next day, Christmas Eve two thousand,
205
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:24.440
Berman's neighbors noticed her three dogs running loose. Her back
206
00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:28.840
door was wide open. They called police. Officers found Susan
207
00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:33.320
Berman's body inside. She was fifty five years old, author,
208
00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:39.600
crime writer, ironically daughter of David Berman, a major organized
209
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:43.799
crime figure who dominated illegal gambling in depression era Minneapolis
210
00:14:44.200 --> 00:14:47.360
and later ran the Flamingo Hotel. And Casino in Las Vegas.
211
00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:50.840
Susan Berman had been killed just days before she was
212
00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:55.679
scheduled to talk to investigators about Kathy Durst's disappearance. Coincidence.
213
00:14:56.159 --> 00:14:59.559
Robert Durst expected people to believe it was, But a
214
00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:02.240
few days after the body was discovered, the Beverly Hills
215
00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:07.080
Police Department received a letter block letters, single word cadaver
216
00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:12.159
and an address Susan Berman's address, with one notable error.
217
00:15:12.799 --> 00:15:16.360
The sender misspelled Beverly Hills as Beverly Hills with an
218
00:15:16.360 --> 00:15:22.320
extra E. That misspelling would prove critical fifteen years later.
219
00:15:23.080 --> 00:15:28.240
Investigators suspected Durst immediately. The timing was too convenient. His
220
00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:31.039
best friend murdered right before she was going to talk
221
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:34.200
the woman who helped him cover up his wife's disappearance.
222
00:15:34.759 --> 00:15:38.120
But they couldn't prove it. No witnesses, no DNA at
223
00:15:38.120 --> 00:15:41.039
the scene, just a dead woman and an anonymous letter.
224
00:15:41.480 --> 00:15:47.080
Robert Durst remained free, remained hiding in Galveston, remained dressed
225
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:51.480
as Dorothy Sinner, and nine months later he would kill again.
226
00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:57.919
That's part one of our Robert Durst Special. Kathy McCormick Durst,
227
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:01.840
twenty nine years old, met a student three months from
228
00:16:01.879 --> 00:16:05.759
becoming a pediatrician, told her friends, if anything happens to me,
229
00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:10.039
don't let Bob get away with it. January thirty first,
230
00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:13.919
nineteen eighty two, she disappeared. Her body has never been found.
231
00:16:14.559 --> 00:16:19.240
Susan Berman, fifty five years old, crime writer, daughter of
232
00:16:19.279 --> 00:16:23.120
a mobster, best friend to Robert Durst since their UCLA
233
00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:27.080
days helped cover up Kathy's disappearance. Was about to talk
234
00:16:27.120 --> 00:16:32.200
to investigators. December twenty third, two thousand, shot execution style
235
00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:36.399
in her home the day before Christmas Eve. Two women
236
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:41.120
connected to one man, both dead or missing, and Robert
237
00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:45.120
Durst walking free hiding in Texas, dressed as a mute
238
00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:48.480
woman named Dorothy Senner living in a three hundred dollars
