on the phone with me is the last person known to have seen susan berman before she was shot and killed her friend. welcome to both of you. rich to you first on the phone. i have to go back to the multiple pictures we ve now seen today of robert durst smiling coming out of court, in the back of this patrol car. when you see these photos what do you make of these? he is able to represent himself as somebody who he isn t. i met him, and i did not get any kind of vibe from him that he was a serial killer but clearly he is. linda, you heard his attorney durst s attorney saying the warrant is based upon a tv show and not the facts. right. i tried the phil specter case out in hollywood. he s going to say this is a great drama. it s a great hollywood story. but it s going to get awards. but that s not the truth.
in a documentary on hbo, he s heard with this hot microphone saying he quote/unquote killed them all. durst is also confronted with a letter that links his handwriting to that of berman s possible killer. according to durst s attorney the jinx had everything to do with this latest murder charge. bob durst did not kill susan berman. he doesn t know who did. that having been said my concern is that the warrant that was issued in california was issued because of a television show and not because of facts. we re going to get to contest that warrant here in louisiana. we want to contest the basis for his arrest because i think it s not based on facts. it s based on ratings. joining me now, criminal defense attorney linda kinney bodden who represented casey anthony.
