Dorothy Ciner was the assumed identity used by Robert Durst, a wealthy New York real estate heir, while living in Galveston, Texas, in the 1990s. Durst, who had been previously acquitted of murdering a friend in Texas and was a suspect in the disappearance of his wife, adopted the female pseudonym and lived a reclusive life in the beachside city to evade law enforcement and avoid media scrutiny.
