Bob Durst might have faded from the spotlight after Kathie’s case went cold, but the man would end up in the news again and again and each time a violent death seemed to be at the center of the focus on Bob Durst. Two more murders would occur that would put his name back in the headlines. The first was the shooting death of his close friend Susan Berman. The second, and much more gruesome of the two was the murder and dismemberment of Morris Black.
