Millionaire Durst pleads 'no contest' in CVS urination incident

Blaming a "medical mishap," New York millionaire Robert Durst pleaded "no contest" Tuesday to the charge of criminal mischief, a class C misdemeanor, after being accused of exposing himself and urinating inside a CVS store on Kirby in July.

"Mr. Durst expressed his apologies to CVS for this unfortunate medical mishap," attorney Chip Lewis said in a prepared statement handed to reporters in court Tuesday. "He compensated them for the damage done and appreciates their understanding."

Lewis said neither he nor Durst would comment further on the case.

The real estate mogul did not attend the scheduled appearance in County Court at Law Judge Don Smyth's court.

"Durst has been making national headlines for decades, for his admitted role in a grisly killing.

He was acquitted in 2004 in Galveston of the murder of an elderly neighbor after the man's dismembered body parts were found in Galveston Bay.

Durst had been arrested in 2001, jumped bond, was found in Pennsylvania trying to steal a sandwich and a Band-Aid from a grocery store and eventually faced trial in the murder. He claimed he had shot Morris Black in self-defense during a struggle over a gun, according to the Houston Chronicle.

Although Durst was acquitted of murder, he was sentenced to and served time in prison for evidence-tampering and bond-jumping in connection with the case.

He later served more time in jail for violating the terms of his parole, in part for returning to the boarding house where he had shot Black."
