    On Thursday September 9th, 2021, Ethan Milius and Habib Balian wrapped up closing arguments for the prosecution and Dick DeGuerin commenced closing arguments for the defense. In this episode, host Kary Antholis and co-host Brittany Bookbinder discuss the stark contrast between the prosecution's appeal to the jury with a rapid-fire display of facts in evidence and the defense's approach of courting sympathy for an elderly client and portrayal of the court’s rulings in the trial as highly prejudicial. Kary and Brittany are joined by Charles V. Bagli, who is covering the trial for The New York Times and CrimeStory.com, to discuss the day's arguments, as well as the fireworks that erupted between the parties once the jury left the courtroom.

Disgusted in Canada ,

Excellent!

I initially gave this podcast a 5 Star review but since the introduction of Brittany Bookbinder as a co-host, my review has dropped to 4 Stars.
She is totally superfluous and has nothing to add.
I’d rather hear more from NY Times journalist Charles Bagli then wasting time hearing Brittany Bookbinder’s vapid commentary.
Otherwise this podcast is the best way to follow the Robert Durst trial. Period.

Live in the courtroom. Love the detail.

Absolutely love this show. I’m a paralegal student and this gives me my fix for high intensity courtroom showdowns. Please cover the Kristen Smart trial.

LMA459 ,

The Durst case was very interesting initially but …

… it is too long (50+ episodes) and repetitive. Season 1 was not too bad but season 2, especially with the addition of a host to chat about the case, was too much.
