HBO’s much-awaited true crime documentary, The Jinx Part 2, is set to premiere on Sunday, April 21, at 10 pm ET. It will follow the story of convicted murderer Robert Durst.
The docuseries finale of The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst shocked viewers when Durst confessed to multiple murders with merely a few words. As quoted in The New York Times, Robert Durst’s confession read:
“What the hell did I do? Killed them all, of course.”
For the unversed, Durst was arrested in 2015 for the murder of his longtime friend Susan Berman in New Orleans back in 2000. He was also suspected of killing his missing wife, Kathleen and his neighbor, Morris Black. The investigation continued for the next eight years while Durst awaited trial.

In an interview with Vanity Fair on April 10, 2024, Andrew Jarecki said:
“This is a story that has kept me fascinated because it keeps changing. Anytime anybody gives me a thought or an idea, it opens some little door because I have all these other pieces of the story…. Obviously we’re obsessed with this material, and we think that there are many things that are not [what] people would anticipate.”
The writing credits for The Jinx Part 2 are given to Zachary Stuart-Pontier, Marc Smerling, and Andrew Jerecki. The executive producers include Lisa Heller, Nancy Abraham, Sarah Rodrigues, and Jerecki.
