Did You Watch “The Jinx”? Here are Six True-Crime Docs to Stream Next

Americans are captivated by the saga of millionaire murder suspect Robert Durst in the wake of the stunning conclusion of The Jinx.

In the final episode of the HBO docuseries on Sunday, Durst, who had been linked to multiple deaths and was seemingly unaware that his microphone was still live, appeared to incriminate himself, muttering, “What the hell did I do? Killed them all, of course.”

The real estate heir was arrested on Saturday and charged with the 2000 murder of writer Susan Berman on Monday.

The Los Angeles Police Department says the arrest was not linked to revelations in the HBO series, which over the course of six episodes examined the 1982 disappearance of Durst’s wife Kathie, the 2000 murder of his friend Berman, and the 2001 murder of his neighbor Morris Black. Durst’s lawyer contends that the timing of this weekend’s arrest was “based on ratings.”

The arrest is a turn of events that has sparked intense debate and catapulted true-crime documentaries into the national dialogue.
