This is 10-minute murder.

0:34.7

When Robert Durst was a young child, his mother climbed to the roof of their family home

0:40.0

and jumped to her death. Years later, Robert would claim that he had seen the entire thing,

0:46.9

which his younger brother, Douglas, denied, was true. It wasn't out of the ordinary for the two

brothers to disagree. During their childhood, they were

sweatpants, and then excused herself after she received a phone call from Robert.

2:02.7

She had plans to meet a friend at a pub in Manhattan, but never arrived. Her friend was

2:08.0

concerned enough to call the police several times, but Robert didn't seem to share those concerns.
