Just last month, Robert Durst, center of the HBO docuseries The Jinx, pleaded not guilty to the murder of Susan Berman back in 2000. However, Durst was arrested after said to himself wearing his microphone during what he thought was a private moment, "You're caught...What the hell did I do? Killed them all, of course." So why the hell would Durst agree to be in a show that ultimately strongly implied his guilt? Apparently, the answer is meth.
According to The Los Angeles Times, a transcript of a 2015 interview reveals Durst saying that he went on the show because "I was on meth the whole time."
Durst, who is currently serving a seven-year sentence, told prosecutors:
"It should have been obvious. I think the reason I did it had to be because I was swooped, speeding."
Well, that's certainly a creative and new reason to not do drugs.
