1 Robert Durst goes to court

2 For decades, no one has been able to convict millionaire Robert Durst. Not after his wife's disappearance. Not after his friend's suspicious death. Not after the death and dismemberment of his neighbor. But it may be Durst himself who does himself in with 11 words he muttered in a restroom: "What the hell did I do? Killed them all, of course.“ Those comments were picked up on a microphone he was wearing for the HBO documentary series about him called "The Jinx." Apparently, the real estate heir didn't turn his microphone off when he went to the bathroom. Durst now sits in a New Orleans jail after his arrest Saturday for the 2000 death of his longtime friend Susan Berman in Los Angeles. On Monday, prosecutors said Durst was "lying in wait" when he shot and killed Berman because she "was a witness to a crime." She had been shot in the head, execution style, shortly before investigators were supposed to come ask her about the disappearance of Durst's first wife in 1982. Durst will be transferred to Los Angeles to face a first-degree murder charge. If convicted, he could face the death penalty.

3 In Other News Americans broadly back direct negotiations with Iran about that country's nuclear program, according to a new CNN poll. Secretary of State John Kerry has been meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif in Switzerland in an attempt to reach an agreement that would loosen sanctions on Iran in exchange for greater transparency around their nuclear programs. Direct diplomatic negotiations with Iran are broadly popular, about 70% favor them, while about 30% oppose them. This despite Benjamin Netanyahu’s plea to stop the U.S. government’s current direction with Iran. A Tim Tebow comeback remains a very real possibility, as evidenced by Monday's news that Tim Tebow worked out for the Philadelphia Eagles. San Francisco 49ers linebacker Chris Borland has retired from professional football over worries that a prolonged NFL career could lead to long-term effects from head trauma.
