HOUSTON -- Multi-millionaire and one-time-accused-killer Robert Durst is in trouble with the law again. This time, he's accused of exposing himself and urinating at a southwest Houston drug store.
Sources tell KTRK-TV in Houston that Durst was in the process of paying for a prescription on Sunday afternoon when, for reasons still unclear, he unzipped his pants and urinated on a cash register and a candy display at a drug store in the 6000 block of Kirby. He's been charged with a Class B misdemeanor.
Durst was charged with "criminal mischief" late Monday afternoon, according to the Harris County District Attorney's Office.
That's in contrast to what his defense attorney, Chip Lewis, said in a statement released by Lewis Monday night, saying "I have been notified Mr. Durst was arrested for a Class B Misdemeanor and is in the bonding process. He will go through the process like any other citizen of Harris County. We will deal with the case on its merits once he is released from jail."
Lewis says Durst is married and his wife is the person who contacted him after the alleged incident.
Durst, a New York real estate heir, was accused of killing and dismembering an elderly neighbor in Galveston in 2001 and was acquitted of murder. He was arrested in 2006 for a parole violation in Houston and sentenced to 60 days in jail. Durst is currently under no supervision or parole.
