died in 2022 — but the bizarre story of the multimillionaire New York real estate heir turned murderer is still unravelling.On Wednesday, HBO dropped the first trailer for “The Jinx: Part Two,” the juicy continuation of the 2015 documentary series “The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst” that explosively ended with his apparent confession.That program, by filmmaker Andrew Jarecki, combined a history of Durst’s decades of alleged misdeeds and a rare interview with the eccentric man.In the final episode, a hot mike caught Durst muttering “killed them all, of course” while in the bathroom — a seeming admission to the murders of first wife Kathleen Durst, California friend Susan Berman and Galveston, Texas, neighbor Morris Black that took place between 1982 and 2001.A Texas court ruled in 2001 that Black’s death occurred in self-defense — despite Durst beheading him while disguised as a woman named Dorothy Steiner — and he was acquitted. The shocking verdict led to The Post’s front page headline: “Run For Your Lives.”But in 2021, Durst was finally convicted of first-degree murder for shooting Berman at her Beverly Hills, California, home 21 years prior.
