Robert Durst All good things…

Background Rich Family 1 of 4 siblings Struggled with sibling rivalry Claims to have seen mother jump or pushed off home which killed her Diagnosed with Schizophrenia at early age Heir to Durst corporation Believed to be involved in the disappearance of around 5 people. Accused of the killing of first wife Kate, Susan Berman, and neighbor Morris Black Some surgical knowledge Stalker Businessman Real Estate expert

So what has the guy done. Multiple accounts of Tax Evasion (he didn't pay his taxes and was constantly on the run) Felony possession of illegal drugs. ( When police found him he had a healthy amount of drugs on him) (Possession of illegal substances) Possession of a illegal fire arm as a felon (Currently in jail for 27 month deal) (Felons can not possess firearms) Killing and Dismembering Morris Black (Acquitted for murder under sketchy self-defense and diagnosis of asbergers) (Sentenced to 3 years for tampering with evidence) Also included 2 counts of Bond-jumping (didn't show up in court for trials after paying bail)

What has he influenced? All Good Things (2010) The Jinx (2015)

What's up with him Simply put I believe that this is a case of physiological effects. I believe this for a number of reasons. Regardless if the Asperger diagnosis was merely a legal tactic to get a charge removed. He was diagnosed at a young age as a Schizophreniac. This was when the DSM wasn't too knowledgeable on the subject, but the diagnosis stands. He also is allegedly a pathological liar, claiming he saw his mother pushed from the top of their family home to her death at a young age. However this could also show a criminal gene perspective as the label come from Durst's father the alleged pusher in Durst's story. So with this evidence and the lack there of otherwise it's a fair assumption that the actions of his are caused by a physical issue in his own brain. This could of course go hand in hand with psychological theories which brings up a number of questions about his life. With a shady and near record less past it is a difficult call on what theory best comes up in the case of Durst. However with a trial finally formed for the murder of Susan Berman back in 2000 set to begin this August. We can only hope more details on him and try and get a more solid theory on his mind.
