Robert Durst of HBO's The Jinx Dies at 78

Robert Alan Durst, the disgraced real estate heir, convicted murderer, and subject of the Emmy Award-winning HBO crime documentary 2015's The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst, has died at age 78. Just months ago, Durst was found guilty of killing his best friend and sent to prison for life. On Monday, the lawyer's office issued a statement confirming this news while serving a life sentence for murder in California. But with his death, also comes a legal technicality, that will allow Durst's murder conviction to be vacated posthumously.
