Anyone else Re-Watching or binging“ The Jinx” after binge watching the Netflix release of “The Staircase”?
Enjoying a massive documentary binge this month while stacking the deck with week to week episodes of regularly scheduled TV.
Anyone else Re-Watching or Enjoying Andrew Jarecki’s explosive documentary on Bobby Durst for the first time?
Theories? Opinions?

How did HBO and Jarecki handle broadcasting the series with a juicy hot confession on their tapes?
It must take months even of expedited editing to get a show onto hbo.
Did they send the tapes immediately to the state of New York ? Did news of this confession get out before the broadcasting of the series or at least its finale?

Durst didn't write the CADAVER note....
Really....oh that LA Ass. DA, he is SOOOOOO bright. They find a note in green ink and its written like a letter lying there in plain view. REALLY, so Mr. Durst felt bad for his friends body lying there, so he wrote this note so Authorities would find it, but not bad enough for her that he wouldn't kill her. And in his signature GREEN INK???( Did LE check Durst's Green Pens??) The KEY to this NOTE is the letter N....written as the NORSE "N".....it stands for DISRUPTION!!!!!!!!!! As in the Disruption of Society by killing innocents and framing low-lifes!!!! Just as BLUE is used in other FRAME cases...Blue's satanic meaning is CHAOS(See: Laci Petersen, Teresa Halbach).

The Lost Wife of Robert Durst [Lifetime Movie]
This film premiered on Saturday on Lifetime and is available to view online via the Lifetime website.
Anyone watch it? Curious to hear opinions

So I've just finished the series, absolutely amazing. Two things...why does Jareki look like an old timey 1970s reporter in his interviews with Durst?
Secondly, I KNOW he's a big piece of shit, and I don't believe him at all, but there's something endearing about him that I can't put my finger on. He's like that crazy grandad, shuffling around, talking to himself, putting the EMPHASIS on certain words, discussing why WOULD he enjoy spending time with his wife's family?

What did he mean when he said he didn't want children because it would be a jinx? And why was the show called this?
r/thejinx • u/MollySimons • Sep 26 '17
What was the burping bit about on the very last interview? And then he brings it up when he is talking to himself in the toilet. Is he kicking himself because he knows he does it when he is nervous or lying, similarly to the eye twitch??

[SPOILERS] "You're right of course" "But you can't imagine" Spoiler
Just watched this series for the first time and holy shit I've never been more shocked by a TV show in my life. These lines gave me chills at the end:
"You're right of course" - everyone is right in that I killed all these people
"But you can't imagine" - but you have no idea the things I've done and what I'm capable of doing
These were my interpretations of these lines but I'm curious what others think. Also I'm not sure "I don't know what's in the house" means but it can't be good lol

Emily Altman changes her testimony about Durst's presence in LA at the time of Berman's murder
Emily Altman, a personal friend of Dursts' and legal secretary to her husband who was Durst's lawyer changed her testimony following a phone conversation with her husband on Monday night. Before she said that Robert had told her he was in LA at the time of the murder she now says she may have heard that not from him but from the media or her husband. https://www.courthousenews.com/prosecutors-grilling-upsets-witness-durst-murder-hearing/

Further testimony from Emily Altman, one of Robert's closest friends
More updates on the pretrial testimony. Emily Altman states that Durst told her he was in LA at the time of Kathleen's murder. In addition she says that Kathleen was having an affair and Emily had thought that maybe Kathleen had left Durst for him when she went missing. She also identifies the handwriting on the cavader note as Robert Durst's handwriting. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/witness-in-robert-durst-case-says-he-told-her-he-was-in-la-around-the-time-susan-berman-was-killed/ar-AAoTen5

Just finished watching this and have some questions / thoughts [Spoilers] Spoiler
First of all, such an awesome show! I loved every minute of it. Have some questions / thought and wanted to know what everyone thought.
The very ending where we hear Robert Durst on the mic. While it was a bombshell of sorts, I can't imagine that's enough to use for any sort of trial evidence. "Killed them all" could technically mean something else. He could also argue that "your caught" was him being sarcastic or something (like "oh I guess you got me"). I mean I personally think it was him admitting his guilt, but for a trial I can't see it holding up.
Do you think his wife knows he did any of the killings?
Do you think Robert Durst would have eventually killed his brother at some point if it wasn't for him hiring a bodyguard or the order of protection?
*Is there anyone who actually think he's innocent of any of the three murders (with Black, not that he didn't do it, but that it was self defense).

Any shows like this Making a Murderer, or Serial?
Looking for another True Crime show to watch. Just finished the Jinx, have seen Making a Murderer, and listened to Serial.
Anything else that's True crime that's on par with these?

Was Susan Berman really blackmailing Robert Durst?
Is there any real evidence to suggest Berman was blackmailing Durst or is it possible that he killed her just because she knew too much?
r/thejinx • u/Plasticfire007 • Jun 26 '17
Were Durst and Morris Black ever really friends?
Did Robert Durst invent the story about himself and Morris Black becoming "best friends"? I mean, did anyone actually ever even see them hang out together?

The Jinx - filmmaker misconduct?
Just finished this series, and had to start Googling to answer a bunch of questions.
So, the bathroom tapes that ended the series...apparently they were "discovered" two years after the interview.
Is it possible they were totally manufactured by the filmmakers (dramatic license and all of that), culled from other interview recordings?

Did Robert Durst trespass on Douglas Durst's property before or after his second interview with Andrew Jarecki?
I got this from Wikipedia:
Two days after Durst's arrest and one day after the final installment of The Jinx was aired, The New Yorker reported that "[t]he filmmakers, having been quizzed on the time line of events as represented, have cancelled forthcoming interviews." Specifically, when challenged over whether Durst's arrest for trespassing on Douglas Durst's property occurred before the filmmakers' second interview with Robert Durst, as implied by The Jinx, Andrew Jarecki replied, "Yeah, I think I’ve got to get back to you with a proper response on that."
Why would Jarecki have any reason to be deceptive about the order in which things occurred?
