Just binge watched it over the weekend. What a psychopath. He'll most likely get off if the letter and audio are the only evidence against him. He can use the "I found her like that and wanted her to be found without being involved" defense.
I hope he goes to jail, and I hope he confesses. According to Wikipedia, he is also linked to several other murders, and is a suspect in even more.

In theory, he may have had an expectation of privacy while in the bathroom. However, the prosecution should be able to counter that by saying he was well aware his mic was 'hot'. He'd been warned by his lawyer in a previous interview of exactly this.
My guess is this was all a game for Durst. He thought he was smarter than everyone else and he's sailed closer & closer to the wind knowing that he would eventually be nailed for one of these murders.
- I think he was def. looking to get caught. He says on the tape "Oh, I want this."jtb26
- @Busterboy that's exactly the psyche of a serial killer.zenmasterfoo

Robert Durst would be terrible at poker ... so many tells
- But he has lots of money, so let's get a game going. Worst would happen is he kills us if we win.jtb26

To me what was amazing in the show is how is it possible for this evil man not to Fart in the bathroom... he coughs... he burps... but no farts. to me that was the biggest twist
- he's an alien. they have no anus. think on it. it explains much...zenmasterfoo

Ironiy that what puts him away is the only 'nice' thing he did in the whole movie.

Isn't his best defense that he had an expectation of privacy while in the bathroom?

This is how the podcast 'Serial' should have been resolved

they'll be lucky if that audio gets allowed in court.
either way, great series and what a fucking coup at the end.

Apparently the audio could be used if they could prove that it was tampered with. Which might be tough to do. But these guys seem like they're pretty meticulous. If they kept good records maybe?
Doesn't bode well for the audio getting used though since it took them two years to discover that he had talked off camera. If they didn't know they had evidence in their hands they may not have treated the recordings as such.

They talk about that in this interview:
http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.co…Essentially saying that on numerous occasions Bob was informed that while the Mic was on his body that it was hot. You could say that perhaps he's to old and doddering to really understand that, but he's not that doddering in reality.

I think that the film will show prosecutors how to do they job they need to do. Which is convince a jury of his guilt. Even if they don't get the confession tapes admitted they will have a pretty solid playbook for making their case. It's a story about three murders not one, and add to that the evidence that is admissible and you have a good case.
The last time he snuck out of it because he had the DA trying to prove a negative and they couldn't win with that.
I'm totes a lawyer and shit. So I know what I'm talking about. // don't care. it's fun to talk about.

Derp...
"NEW ORLEANS (AP) – A Louisiana State Police trooper says millionaire Robert Durst has been booked on weapons charges in that state – on top of a first-degree murder charge lodged by Los Angeles authorities. Trooper Melissa Matey told the Associated Press that an arrest warrant was issued for the former Limp Bizkit frontman and he was rebooked in the Orleans Parish Jail on Monday under two new charges," an AP report said.
