"But presumably. The jury doesn't know that but the point he was making or he seemed to be trying to draw out is well. you know. Kathy's drug rehab at lenox hill was between six and nine pm meaning her day job her nine to five job. She could still conduct yourself there. Well it wasn't a nine to five job. She was a fourth year medical student. Which meant sometimes. She was sleeping overnight in the hospital. She didn't have the time to go there at six. Pm three days a week. These were not the most impactful items to say the least charlie. Were you surprised that he didn't spend more time. I mean aside from which topics he decided to talk about. Did you think that he would spend more time with robert durst just trying to make him seem a little bit more sympathetic. I was thinking about it the night. Before what are you gonna do to try to rehabilitate them to stem this avalanche of information from the prosecution to suggest to the jury you know they got the wrong guy. And i wasn't sure how you would do that. But i do. Think we got an example today of how not to do it. He has a podcast host and producer. I was hoping that to garin. Wasn't going to take the silent advice that i would have given him. Which is quit while you're behind because you're only going to get more behind and i was grateful that he did go another half day and go ahead and ask bob some questions but i don't think he did himself any favors with any of that redirect examination. That's for sure britney. What did you make of fluids. Re-cross of bob. I think lou and ended on a high note. You know. I think by going back to the jailhouse call with debbie and his previous testimony about knowing where cathy was buried really helped make his point. You know i think it would have been unrealistic to expect durst to come right out and confess but what has done over the course of all. These many days is show him to be an unreliable narrator of his own story. And when bob went back and used the same strategy of just trying to explain his way out of these very damning things he said. I think that's telling. And i can only imagine that the jury sees that too i agree. It was very precise. And it didn't take that long. And i loved when lewin astor's if he really thought kathy would including your application that her husband was emotionally and physically abusive like that was going to happen. Yeah at the end. I thought it was a nice little ending said so bob. You have repeatedly admitted that. If you would kill capi or susan or both of them you would never tell us correct and bob one word response. Correct well i think that's a good place to end today's episode. We will continue to follow this trial as we go through closing arguments.

"She provided diverse with an alibi or some version of that. And bob's response to that really was one of the stunning moments of the trial. Why don't you talk about what it was like. Hearing all of that in the courtroom absolutely he starts talking about the witnesses and about susan and he was very dismissive of the woman who wants described as his best friend. You know he said well. I didn't really believe half of what she told me. I'm not saying there's anything wrong. With the witnesses it. What's wrong with what susan said. What susan told and this was a really stunning moments all of a sudden. Everybody's sitting up straight moving onto susan towards the end of the day. John lewin came. Around to discussing testimony regarding robert durst trip to los angeles. In december of two thousand and he started by talking about durst. Ca alleged conversation with emily altman. And the fact that. Emily allman revealed in court. For the first time the fact that robert durst had been in los angeles at the time of susan. Berman's death charlie. You have spoken to emily. Allman what did you make of the way that robert durst handled those questions from john. Lewin well i it's a it's a peculiar thing because bob is now admitting not only that he was in los angeles but he was a the person perhaps the first person to find susan's lifeless body and so but now he's attacking emily for that so i think it's a case You know he's trying to exact revenge on her because it was actually her testimony. That ultimately led the defense to admit that bob was in los angeles and that he wrote the cadaver note right and then at the end of the day. We probably got the best exchange of the dialogue. Between lewin and endorsed it was at that point that durst for the first time actually stated that he thought the killer was in the house with him and susan's lifeless body. He implied in his direct testimony. But he actually said it underlines questioning and lewin said will how is it possible that the body was cold if the killer was still in the house and then durst denied that he said that the body was cold then lewin played the clip where he says he put his hand over susan's mouth and it was cold and bob tried to say that it was her breath that was cold the breath of her lifeless body and liu and made a quip you mean. The stiff was breathing. Charlie what was the reaction of the jurors when dir said that and when liu and made the quip about the stiff again. It's pretty hard you know. They're they're off on the side. But i think it was a little bit of a jaw dropper there and lewin expressed it right. How can our breath feel cold. She's a steph yet charlie. It was a stunning moment. And i think we're going to get some more tomorrow. Because you know it was a bit of a cliffhanger today well we absolutely look forward to hearing.

Dr elizabeth loftus is a memory expert with an extensive resume both in terms of her professional accomplishments as well as the number of high profile criminal cases in which she has testified as an expert witness. She is generally called to cast doubt on the memories of witnesses. Why was dr loftus called to testify in this case. And why did the defense team choose her. As the opening act for robert durst himself in this episode will speculate on the possible reasons behind calling loftus and examine how effective that strategy has proven to be. We'll also explore the subtext of deputy. Da john lewis extensive cross examination of this witness. That's coming up after the break. Want the high stakes stuff.

While sam reese to be expressed with a great deal emotion and the belief that they're true as time passes in memory is getting weaker. Weaker you become even more vulnerable. Host yvette. fish as we've reported robert durst long-held version of events that he was not in los angeles at the time of berman's murder and that he did not write. The so-called cadaver note changed shortly before this trial began. He now admits that he was in los angeles and did in fact write the cadaver note however since his narrative is uncorroborated by any other witnesses. The jury had to wait for durst testimony which is expected to continue into next week to learn his complete story for the night that burma was murdered. Aside from presenting the jury with dirt zone words. It appears that the defense team strategy is to cast doubt on the deluge of evidence presented by the prosecution that points to dir skilled thus the defense called an expert witness whose role in this trial seems to be to impugn the memories of those who have testified to the damning statements made by both the defendant and the victim in this case on tuesday august third. Dr elizabeth lofter's took the stand and sad for close to seven hours over four different days on direct examination. Defense attorney david. Czeslaw asked loftus about her extensive curriculum vitae including her list of honorary degrees czeslaw. Then got to the heart of his examination. His questions seemed to take direct. Aim at the prosecution. In this case. Six to eight people are interrogated by the search person and they say the same thing that's still indicate a false memory. It can if if so six eight people are subjected to the same. Maybe problematic Interviewing or post amount suggestion some kind of suggestive information name. They might all end up believing something. That isn't accurate. It's important to note that the defense and prosecution cannot refer to specific witnesses or testimony when questioning this memory expert witness but chestnuts line of questioning begs the question. Who are the six to eight people that he is referencing. The defense team's narrative suggests that chasnoff is taking aim at the memories of a handful of susan berman's close friends who testified about information they had regarding susan's involvement in the alleged cover-up of kathy durst. Death czeslaw continued. If false information is incorporated into a question in the person adopted into their memory absolutely. Yes you explain how that works well. That's the kind of thing that we've actually done. In some of my experiments we incorporate false information into a question and we look to see what people do with that suggestive questions. So you show people say a simulated accident where a car goes through a yield sign before the accident and ask a leading question like did another car past the red car. When it was at the intersection with a stop sign that can cause many people to now believe in remember they saw a stop sign instead of yields time. That's just one experimental example of how a question that has embedded in some misinformation can be adopted by people. Both the question and answer appear to insinuate that the prosecution might have implanted false memories in witnesses by asking leading questions but who specifically among susan's friends is chestnut referencing. Could it be nick shaven. Nick you also mentioned that susan said to you that bob had confided in her to more easily set up an alibi. Do you remember telling the police. That is yes amused fourteen years now. We're not saying whether this is necessarily true or not. We're trying to figure out what susan told you that. Somehow she helped with an alibi and early. Yeah yeah yeah. I would say about tasks and again. It's not that year saying you believe to.

"Door. What did you make of that. Well i actually keyed in on his last line where he said well he was an adult. That wasn't when we were kids as if maybe that was okay. If they were adults they were on even ground. I thought it was odd that he remembered exactly how much he paid for the monthly rent in vermont but didn't remember that incident. Well i'm not sure that he wouldn't be reluctant to own up to that. And those kinds of cruelties in indignities were probably so commonplace for him that i actually wasn't surprised that he didn't remember that i just took it as something that he did sort of matter-of-factly and he got a laugh out of it in the moment. And then he forgot about it whereas it was traumatic for thomas understandably charlie odd kept mentioning the psychiatrists that he had seen over the years and lewin objected every single time. But i was just wondering if you have a sense of what his strategy is there. Do you think he's going for some kind of insanity defense. Well it's funny. We knew that. Bob at the age of About eight or nine was fighting with his father and his brother so much that they decided to send him to see a psychiatrist. Bob is now saying that you know he was constantly going to psychiatrists. You know the shrinks were adam trying to get inside his head i. I'm not sure what that's all about. But i do think you're right. The prosecutor john lewin seems to think he's going somewhere with that that there is a purpose to it. I think lewin actually said what he thinks. The purpose is what lewis said was in this case. The defense is not presented any psychiatric testimony but what they did in texas was. They asked a lot of questions about psychiatrists with the prosecutors. In that case never oppose. And that's how they got psychiatric evaluations in testimony in the galveston case. Lewin wanted to make sure that kind of stuff didn't get in that way. What that raises for me is more generally what you guys think. Geren strategy is with durst. I think he sort of playing out what he essentially said in his opening statement. And that is. Bob is been this hapless guy more often than not who finds himself in the wrong place wrong time and he runs. I actually think and this is just my impression. But i sort of think that garin sort of using his appearance as a way to gain sympathy. Almost like a racehorse whose on its last legs but seems to want a race one more time. Maybe if he talks long enough you'll be able to humanize himself for the jury. Carry what do you think to garin. Strategy is here yeah. I'm not sure he has much of a strategy. And i'm going to go out on a limb and say he's sort of just winging it and to the degree that there is a strategy. I think it's all about creating a sense of pity for bob as brittany just said anyway. We'll see well. Thanks for being our eyes and ears in the courtroom.

"The trial of robert durst. I'm joined by my co host brittany bookbinder. And we're bringing you some breaking news from los angeles superior court brittany will read you. The memo that just came in from the meteo relations office of the court for immediate release august. Six twenty twenty one judge mark e wyndham orders a recess until monday after trial observer tests positive for cova nineteen judge mark e wyndham. Recessed the trial yesterday after notification that an individual present in the courtroom but not a member of either trial team had tested positive for in nineteen. Furthermore judge wyndham learned that this individual in defiance of strict cove nineteen court and public health protocols had been experiencing symptoms for several days but none the less attended the trial. The member of the public who tested positive was wearing a mask when attending trial this week after receiving the positive test notification yesterday judge wyndham immediately recessed. The trial excused the jury until monday and began gathering details of this troubling incident. The delay of the trial could have easily been avoided. If the courts cove nineteen protocols which match the protocols of the los angeles county department of health and the c. d. c. had been followed as directed at all courtroom entrances on the courts website and announcements on the courts twitter account after review of the facts including contact tracing and an assessment of close contacts under established public health definitions.

That is cited in the memo from the court. Well i i want to say that. I don't wish covert on anyone. But as soon as i walked into the courthouse thursday morning i could tell there was some sort of tension that something was afoot. Lawyers were going in and out of the courtroom looked like they were huddling with the judge and they weren't talking to reporters that were gathered outside They were pretty tight. Lipped so My head antenna went up as to what was going on early in the more in the session. I did see two defense lawyers leave. And then i saw a third one during a break leaving with his A bag of of materials. And i said to what's going on where you going. And he said to get tested and i did notice that on tuesday. The person who tested positive for cogan had been sitting front and center in the gallery but on wednesday they were in an isolated spot all the way over on the left side of the courtroom by themselves.

"Maybe some of his lawyers one last thing before we go. Charlie i gather over the weekend. Even though robert durst attorneys have said repeatedly that durst is going to testify. There was some last-minute debate among defense team about whether he should in fact to testify. What can you tell us about that. Well i did get The impression over the weekend that was quite a bit of debate and it was touching. Go at one point. It sounded like bob would not take the stand and they would just present one witness and rest. And then i suppose they were gonna depend on the brilliance of their summation. But in the end. As i understand it. Bob insisted that he wanted to take the stand that he wanted to tell his store. Well i have to say that. The surest sign that robert durst is of diminished capacity. To me is if he in fact decides not to take the witness stand because the robert durst that we all know the guy who will as britney one said. Take that stand.

"Of jury. Duty the trial of robert durst. I'm your host carryanne olis' i'm joined by my co host brittany bookbinder on the morning of thursday july twenty ninth. Just before the prosecution began presenting the last part of their case against robert durst. The defense team presented evidence of robert durst declining health in support of one final motion for a mistrial in a hearing this morning. The defense called dr klein who specializes in internal medicine and kidney disorders back. In may the defense presented a report. From dr klein that outlined robert durst various maladies this morning under questioning from dicta garin. Dr klein reiterated the conditions. He noted in his report. Based on your records review and based on your two examinations of this mr dirt would you please outline for it briefly. Each significant medical condition that he has that could affect his physical abilities to withstand brawl and his cognitive abilities. Would you tell us what those conditions are. I is that he has normal pressure hydrocephalus and he had a shunt place about six or seven years ago so he was treated and fifty percent of people within six seven eight years will have some sort of a relapse at this point deputy. Da john lewin offered to stipulate to the various conditions that dr klein had detailed in his report since it did not appear that the physician was offering any new information however judge mark e wyndham decided. It was important to hear the doctor out. The doctor klein proceeded to describe the conditions that we have previously reported on including chronic lung disease. Cardiac issues esophageal gastric as well as his preferred methods of treatment which involve immediate hospitalization to garin. Then ask dr klein to lay out. The cognitive issues that he believes would prevent robert durst from continuing to stand trial. Yes now address the cognitive or how his conditions affect his cognitive ability in in the medical record the it describes him as he cognitively impaired deficient many many many times. I can give you a stack of papers. I extracted from the medical record. We're again and again. It mentions his cognitive deficits. There's many actions he does it show that he's got cognitive deficit and he's declining. When pressed for an example. This is how the doctor responded he. He was found in jail to have defecated on the floor of his cell and he covered it with his clothing. And that's not considered normal behavior when deputy da. John lewin cross examined dr klein he pushed back on the conclusions. That the doctor has drawn in your may report. You basically said you didn't know this durst. He was had such so ill that he had a limited life expectancy you do not know if he could survive trial correct. That's would you agree.

When asked why he talks openly about the allegations against him robert durst once told reporter. Charles bagley. I am convinced that there's no reason i shouldn't say anything i want to to anyone i want. It's so long ago some. Da would have to commence a major budget busting investigation. I don't see that happening. That was actor david. Kelsey reenacting bursts comments to charles bagley from twenty fifteen in essence durst believes that without the time money or political will no one would bother to piece together and fact check the various stories. He's told over the years and for a very long time. He was right but then in two thousand thirteen los angeles deputy. Da john lewin entered the picture beginning about eight years ago. Lewin and his team of prosecutors and investigators patiently began picking up the breadcrumbs. The durst has left behind for the past forty years. We have come to the part of the trial where the prosecution is feeding each of these breadcrumbs to the jury just as robert durst stands on the precipice of taking the witness. Stand in his own defense. So what are these breadcrumbs. What are the key pieces of self-incriminating information that robert durst has left on his path. Well there are actually multiple breadcrumbs related to all three of durst alleged murders first. There's the night of kathy's disappearance schori authors rake. Jerry's of was the fault. The kathy returned from uber's part. He said they asked yet. Wage jurisprudence cathy. I trained to city. He then said he visited his neighbors. That's gonna be the mayors and he wasn't doing anything various. He said he spoke with kathy by phone. Between eleven and eleven fifty. She seemed fine. She was watching tv in riverside drive. And that's deputy. Da john lewin in his original opening statement last year. As we reported in season one durst own statements have been the backbone of the prosecution's case against him and his comments to filmmakers andrew iraqi and marks merlin which will officially be entered into evidence. This week have been especially problematic for the defense. As lewin pointed out during his opening statement actually admitted they had a violent argument. Here is what robert durst initially told andrew directly about the night. Kathy disappeared so the night that she disappeared last night. So through what you're never happening he gets back. Very good sampler. Whatever he read me loaded would walk from the house. She wants to to say. Go to see if you will. But the maher c. Because of a condition us many thing michigan bother me. one harbor. Just add the eighties. The so she was. I was Something the har- immediately go over saying south saying you think the i hate way. She wants to go to the city. She take the train and she's no taking the car ke that car and she not taking the cards. He'd just verbal argument pushing show. In addition to jurists apparent admissions of physically and emotionally abusing his wife on the night of her disappearance durst admitted to the makers of the jinx that he lied to investigators about his actions that night. Now in two thousand ten show that one thing shocking details that emerged from the directed. Small interviews is that for the first time ever talk. Jurors is going to cash in myth that the story about going back to the neighbor's house was complete application. Explain why it was if you listen to his explanation. You're gonna understand.

"He seemed to be saying that next week at the end of next week he would rest the prosecution's case and then what happens. After the prosecution rests will we hear from bob durst himself. Well they've been saying from the beginning. They said in their opening statements that bob will testify and since he reversed himself after nineteen years of denying that he was even in los angeles. Bob almost certainly has to take the stand to give me to this new version of events so if the defense decides not to put bomb on the stand. They're opening up a huge dilemma for themselves.

"From the courtroom yesterday. For the first time in weeks robert durst stood up at the defense table and made his voice heard on monday. June twenty eighth before the jury entered the courtroom deputy. Da john lewin raised an issue about robert durst. Catheter bag with judge windham. Now mr lewin you wanted to bring an issue for my attention. Probably jersey on wednesday thursday. When we were last in court. I noticed that. At two thirty pm mr durst. That was all the way full This brings up a number of issues as we reported on june twenty. First during the first week that durst arrived in court with a catheter. Bad john lewis announced he had with robert durst permission. And in the presence of the bailiff emptied the bag when durst own attorneys declined to help out this time however when lou and offered to assist durst declined loons offer. Michener's was asked. He said he did not want to change. Lewin then detailed concerns regarding the possibility that robert durst has been deliberately performing his frailty in court in order to manipulate the jury. I had the opportunity over the weekend. Look at some footage for poor and there were three different occasions that i was able to see. In the last two weeks where mr durst either deliberately held up his bag to the jury or maneuvered his seat to take away the cover so the jury could see his back. Why is that important. Because mr durst is on record and in fact has previously done this before has admitted to deliberately attempting to increase sympathy with jurors and the public by displaying either. He shot by shaving his head before raymond in new orleans by lowering his chair galveston for the trial. Things like that until my concern is number. There's a legitimate need where this bag needs to be drained During the day the problem is that if the bag fills up all the way especially with his bladder cancer there can certainly be a risk of infection. And although i'm sure 'cause i noticed the beginning of the day. His bag is almost empty. So it's a normal process that it's going to fill up but if it to three it's full and he's not going to get back until much later than that. It needs to be drained by somebody over the lunch hour. Whether mr darcy wants it drained or not and draining just so it's clear your honor does not involve doing anything to mr durr involve simply holding the bag over a toilet and releasing the valve on the bag and it drains out so we would ask that be done number one because it should be done to ensure that mr durr is able to be present during this trial going forward and number two because i wanna make sure that that bag is not utilized as a prop by mr durr in an attempt to incur l. cetera when judge windham gave the defense team an opportunity to respond. They expressed once again their concerns about continuing the trial for the sake of robert durst health. Pretty good example. Why we shouldn't be trial in native medical attention. We've unable to get the urology consultation family so we're very concerned about. His medical condition is not doctor's place that too. And i'm not a doctor mr lewis don a doctor. I think whatever care that he needs needs to be done by the doctors all right. We'll change magazine medical procedure. Mr gercy has has has a standing. Perhaps he you know leist ending toronto. Contrary to the defense team's assertion that robert durst condition had worsened to the point of him being unable to stand the seventy eight year. Old defendant was standing up without assistance. Defense attorney david. Czeslaw encouraged his client to write down. Whatever it was he might want to say a durst brush him off. Once again judge windham invited robert durst to speed and for the first time in weeks. The court heard his feeble voice. In contrast to dicta garin who repeated his off us. Refrain about his client's health robert durst respond directly to louis attack touching on all points one by one incorrect seeking sympathy from shakes. Only here valuable in terms of the talks about my galloper student. Loan might share little. Everyone four thousand kids. He was with the chair height on in terms of this whole fame seeking a try to feel bad doing every possible to ensure to get doctors could see. Tc to remove the coppa. How use a bad so convinced this rating. I don't think it's meaningful hi. What's requests to course record control so one is often. She's nobody is willing to tell me why i have a thank you.

On the life of susan berman the woman whom durst is charged with murdering brittany. What stuck out to you in that last episode on berman by all accounts it sounds like susan. Berman had a complicated relationship with even her closest friends and one thing that really stood out to me was that while she didn't have the easiest time with adults. It sounds like she was great with kids. Yeah you're right. She did seem to have a maternal relationship to her friends. Kids yeah there was that sweet anecdote about susan. Accompanying nick shavings young daughter on a cross country flight. And then there's paul kaufman's adult children it. I wonder if she had an easier time connecting with young people because it sounds like the happiest time in her life was her childhood. Yeah and perhaps she was so trusting of durst because he reminded her of her father.

At the time and was able to come up with sufficient evidence to charge robert durst with a crime. Dicta garin ask detective struck to reflect on his performance in this case a cook disclaimer. The recording of these proceedings is riddled with sounds of cracking and coughing from within the courtroom. And some things may be hard to hear.

Lorraine newman had hosted a wedding shower through and it was a spectacular. Bob was there. Of course he walked. Susan down the aisle she also returned to the subject that was near to her heart and always seemed to prove successful. And that was las vegas. We developed a routine. Whenever i'd come to la. I take her out to lunch. Nate nells we would go there. I would order like enough food for me for her. For two or three dinners we would cover the table with food. She would eat little and we pack it all up and take the leftovers back. I just come back from la and the phone rings. And it's her agent and eases.

I think it's striking that after losing her parents and going through this horrible depression she suddenly. Has this creative surge and seems to find her voice with that piece about not getting laid in san francisco which by all accounts was satire. According to her friends she was unqualified to write. That one. right. Yeah i mean. It's no wonder that launched her career. It was basically click bait before there was click bait. You know that's a great way of putting it actually. It did occur to me that there's almost a greek tragedy quality that susan berman's life and specifically in the span of about two months. Susan experienced the incredible high of robert durst hosting a book. Party for her memoir. Easy street that was in november of nineteen eighty-one and then if the prosecution's case is to be believed just over a month after that she helps bob durst cover up the murder of his wife. Kathy yeah that's a great point.

We'll hear more about that. And how everything went downhill for susan in third and final installment on susan berman's life once again we'll hear from susan's friends.
