It happened here in Ritzy Beverly Hills on secluded Benedict Canyon Road. Police
00:00:10
say the killer, infamous millionaire Robert Durst, waved extradition, taken to Los Angeles to face murder charges
00:00:16
for the death of his friend Susan Berman. We are glad we can have Mr. Durst extradited to California to Los
00:00:23
Angeles in the homicide of Susan Berman. Robert Durst has had an incredible run of getting away with
00:00:34
murder. I'm Janine Piro. I was the district attorney in Westchester County uh at the time that Susan Berman was
00:00:42
killed. I've been reporting on the bizarre case of Robert Durst now for nearly 10 years. He's the New York
00:00:50
multi-millionaire suspected in a series of murders. Bobby, did you kill Kathy 20 years ago?
00:01:00
I believe that he murdered his first wife, Kathleen. Then the crime that really put him on
00:01:06
the map. Durst was charged with shooting and chopping up a neighbor in Galveastston, Texas in 2001.
00:01:14
What makes him think he has the right? He threw his body away like [Music] garbage. Will the jury find the
00:01:23
defendant? Robert Durst not guilty. You say to yourself, why? It's about power and money. You pay a million and a half
00:01:32
dollars, create theater in a courtroom, and everybody's like, poor Bob. He had to chop up that body. Janine Piro was
00:01:40
chasing him. I mean, it is the theater of the absurd. Next week, Robert Durst begins a legal journey that will soon
00:01:49
land him in a Los Angeles courtroom and on trial for the murder of Susan Burman.
00:01:55
How was she killed? Well, she was shot in the back of the head. What kind of gun? It was a 9 mm and just one shot.
00:02:02
Just one shot. What about Susan Burman? Did you have anything to do with her murder?
00:02:08
Susan Burman was a magazine writer and she was also a mob daughter. In a weird way, maybe that's why I became a
00:02:14
journalist because there was always a story that I knew someday I would have to get. And it's my own.
00:02:22
The initial reaction was her father was in the mafia. She was shot in the back of the head. This is like a mafia hit.
00:02:30
And I thought the mafia isn't after Susan. Tonight, exclusive video of Burman and
00:02:36
an interview with a former prosecutor who has hunted Durst for years. His attorneys say he wants to go on trial
00:02:43
for Susan Burman because he wants to clear his name. Clear his name? This guy wants to clear his name. If you believe
00:02:49
that, I have a bridge to sell you. I mean, this is beating the system at the ultimate game, a game of of murder.
00:02:57
So, the question is, is Durst crazy or is he crazy like a fox?
