Robert Durst testified that he lied for decades about sending police a note directing them to his best friend's body because he feared it implicated him in the killing. The New York real estate heir is on trial in Los Angeles for Susan Berman's murder.
It was so hard to fathom that Susan Berman’s killer was not the same person who sent police a note directing them to her “cadaver” that Durst even questioned the plausibility of that explanation.
Durst, who skipped bail in the Galveston case before eventually being arrested for shoplifting a sandwich in Pennsylvania, testified that he considered committing suicide while he was on the lam.Durst, who is frail and suffering from a series of health problems, spoke in a soft, raspy voice as he denied killing Berman, his longtime pal who served as a spokeswoman when his wife went missing.
When he returned to the house, the front door was open and the note was gone. He said he may have left the door open after entering.“I did a double take when I saw Susan,” he said. “I put my hand over her face ... to see if she was breathing, to see if I felt breath. It felt cold. Then I grabbed her by her arms ... her head just hung down. I could see that her hair was in some kind of liquid.”He tried calling 911 from her home, but the battery in her cordless phone was dead.
He mailed a note to police that simply said, “CADAVER” and included Berman’s address. The envelope misspelled Beverly Hills as “Beverley.” After the judge ruled that prosecutors could present evidence showing he wrote the note, his lawyers conceded before trial that Durst penned it. His testimony was the first time he’s publicly described finding Berman and writing the note.
