GANGSTA

In addition to first-degree murder.

On top of his first-degree murder charge, Robert Durst is also facing charges for possession of a firearm and a controlled substance. When he was arrested Saturday in New Orleans, Durst was found in a hotel room with a .38-caliber handgun (two previous felony convictions made it illegal for him to carry a firearm) and around five ounces of marijuana, police say.
