Berman suspected it wasn't a suicide: she believed that her mother's death was a mob hit over the money her father left behind to her.īerman was beloved by her friends who she kept in close contact with, and they say she had a penchant for being dramatic and neurotic. Her mother, who had been in and out of mental institutions for depression, died of a drug overdose when Berman was 13. Berman even hung his FBI wanted poster in her home. He died from a heart attack when she was 12, and she still adored him even after finding out about his lurid past. She would later find out that her loving, doting father ran Bugsy Siegel's casinos, robbed banks, killed and served seven years in Sing Sing. She would eventually tackle mob life in her work, but Berman apparently didn't know about her father's notorious career until she started researching it in her 30s. She was a prolific book writer, journalist, and the daughter of a prominent Las Vegas mobster. In her 55 years, Berman was known as someone who was fierce and larger than life, according to a 2001 New York Magazine article. Over the weekend, a bombshell dropped: Robert Durst-the subject of the docuseries and prime suspect for her murder-was arrested in New Orleans in the cold case. The unsolved case of her murder recently got a second look in HBO's docuseries, The Jinx.
It's been nearly 15 years since Susan Berman was discovered fatally shot with a single bullet wound to the back of her head in her Beverly Hills home.
