Disgraced scion of the famous real estate family, Robert Durst, has a talent for acquittal. He just got acquitted again in a case accusing him of trespassing on family property when there was a restraining order against him, according to the New York Post.
“I felt like kissing my lawyers, ” said Robert Durst. Although the judge cleared him of charges for trespassing on his family’s property at West 43rd Street, he was warned to stay away in future. Robert Durst says he has better things to do than wander around the area trying to shoot his brother Douglas, who runs the family enterprise. Of course he has better things to do, since he’s been on the lam quite often, first fleeing the city after the disappearance of his wife Kathleen McCormack in 1982, and the mysterious execution style death of her friend Susan Berman. From there the now 71 year old fled to Texas dressed as a woman, confessed to killing and cutting up a neighbor, Morris Black, but he was cleared of that charge. More recently, he got caught in CVS urinating in a cash register, but he expects to get off because of claims of incontinence due to a medical condition.

Concerning the case with his family, Durst’s lawyer (the one he wants to kiss), Steven Rabinowitz, said, “There’s an assumption embedded in this case that Mr. Durst knows where everybody in his family lives.”
Durst was caught by a surveillance camera, but apparently, it just happened to be in one of his relative’s apartments. Robert blamed Douglas’ shrink for his paranoia about his brother, who let’s be honest, has some shadiness about him. Robert Durst said, “I’m not spending my time running around 43rd street looking for a chance to shoot Douglas.” Now who put that idea in his head?
