Murder Most Foul No. 123

Description

Multi-millionaire, cross-dresser, convicted murderer…three of the many ways to describe recently deceased New York real estate tycoon Robert Durst. He’d barely begun a life sentence in California for the 2000 murder of his friend Susan Berman, and had also been formally accused of killing his wife Kathie too 40 years ago in 1982. Famously, he had also managed to convince a jury that he didn’t murder a former neighbour whose body he dismembered and disposed of… Many remain convinced that Durst did murder Maurice Black and was in fact a serial killer. For more, read this issue’s “Jinxed: He Killed Susan But Did He Kill Kathie Too?”

“The conduct of the offender was calculated, violent and hateful. His crimes cannot be viewed as anything other than an attack on the very foundation of Australian democracy.” So said Justice Peter Garling at the sentencing of Leonard Warwick whose campaign of vengeful mayhem had brought terror to New South Wales in the 1980s. Read “A Bomber And His Trail Of Victims” for the full story.
