Well, how much do we expect this Siri's to play a role in the trial?

Lindsey, The prosecution has already been using Robert Durst own words against him as they're making their case to the jury.

And you may remember the big bombshell with the jinx.

That was in the last episode when you could hear Durst admit to what a lot of people thought was a potential confession.

Well, it turns out that that bombshell was heavily edited by HBO.

What aired on the jinx, and then I'm going to read to you What?

But what he said in full was, actually, I don't know what you expected to get.

The judge has said that if the jury actually does hear this.

They have to hear the statement in full, not what aired on HBO and Lindsay.

You can see that the two are completely different.

And well, after hearing opening arguments, what do we expect from the trial ahead?

Well, we're expecting a lot more bombshells.

The prosecution is painting a picture that involves three murders theologian murder of Durst first wife.

Back in the eighties, her body has never been found.

Another murder in Texas that Durst has already been acquitted.

For then, of course, the murder of Susan Berman.

This also involves allegations of, um, revenge and one victim who's actually linked to the Mafia.

If you add it all up, this trial's expected to last for months.

They're planning on hearing for more than 100 witnesses, so there's gonna be, ah, lot of explosive testimony in the days and weeks to come.
