Robert Durst
From wikepediaQuote:
Robert Alan Durst (born April 12, 1943)[1] is a son of New York City real estate mogul Seymour Durst and a brother of commercial developer Douglas Durst. He came to media attention in the 1980s when his wife disappeared, and again in the early 2000s when he was the subject of a multi-state manhunt and acquittal of murder.
On March 14, 2015, Durst was rearrested in New Orleans on a first-degree murder warrant issued by the Los Angeles Police Department. If convicted in California for the murder of Susan Berman, Durst could face the death penalty for "special circumstances of murder of a witness and lying in wait".

Arrest for Berman murder
After a first-degree murder warrant was issued by the Los Angeles Police Department, Durst was arrested by FBI agents on March 14, 2015, at the Canal Street Marriott in New Orleans, where he had registered under the false name "Everette Ward". Durst, who was observed wandering aimlessly in the lobby and mumbling to himself, was thought to have driven to New Orleans from Houston four days before. In addition to a .38 Smith & Wesson revolver loaded with four live rounds and one spent shell casing, police recovered five ounces of marijuana, Durst's birth certificate and passport, a full-face latex mask, the fake Texas ID used to check into the hotel, and $42,631, mostly in $100 bills stuffed into small envelopes. Police also discovered tracking numbers and UPS documents “for a shipment of a large sum of cash monies". Bank statements found in one of Durst's Houston condominiums revealed cash withdrawals of $315,000 in little more than a month.
Douglas Durst said he was "relieved" and "grateful" in a statement shortly after his brother's arrest. He added, "We hope he will finally be held accountable for all he has done."
On March 15, 2015, New York State Police investigator Joseph Becerra, long involved with the Kathie Durst case and said to be working closely in recent months with FBI and Los Angeles detectives, removed some sixty file boxes of Durst's personal papers from the home of a Durst friend in Campbell Hall, New York, where they had been sent by Durst's wife three years before for safekeeping.
On March 16, 2015, attorney Dick DeGuerin, who also represented Durst during his 2003 trial for the killing of Morris Black, advised court authorities in New Orleans that his client waived extradition and would voluntarily return to California "to get it on". Late the same day, Louisiana State Police filed charges against Durst for being a felon in possession of a firearm and for possession of a firearm with a controlled substance, which could delay his return to California. Orleans Parish District Attorney Leon Cannizzaro commented that, in light of prior convictions which could influence Durst's sentencing, "[j]ust for those gun charges here in Louisiana, [Durst] could face up to life in prison".
