Nick Reiner, Rob Reiner’s son, to appear in court on 2 counts of murder in killing of his parents
Nick Reiner is scheduled to appear in a California court on Wednesday on two counts of murder in the killing of his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner.
The arraignment and plea hearing, which will mark the first time Nick Reiner is appearing in court related to the killings, is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. PT (11:30 a.m. Eastern).
The 32-year-old is being charged with two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances, Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman announced on Tuesday. Hochman said the charges carry a maximum sentence of life in prison without parole or the death penalty, but that his office hasn’t decided which to pursue.
Newly released video shows Nick Reiner inside a gas station convenience store hours after the killings and just moments before he was arrested on Sunday. Video from outside the store shows the LAPD arriving and arresting him. He did not resist arrest, according to police.
He is now being held without bail in a jail in downtown Los Angeles.
The district attorney’s office confirmed in a statement that Rob and Michele Reiner were stabbed to death. It wasn’t clear as of Wednesday morning when exactly the attack happened, or how long the couple had been dead before their bodies were discovered on Sunday. The day before, they had gone to a party at Conan O’Brien’s, where Rob and Nick Reiner had a brief but loud argument, sources who were there told CBS News.
Police have not released details about evidence in the case, or any information about a possible motive or what led them to arrest Nick Reiner.
Rob Reiner, 78, first gained fame in the CBS sitcom “All in the Family” for playing Archie Bunker’s son-in-law Mike “Meathead” Stivic. He later became highly regarded for directing films including “The Princess Bride,” “A Few Good Men,” and “When Harry Met Sally…” Michele, 68, was a photographer who took the photo of President Trump that was used on the cover of his book “The Art of the Deal,” according to Variety.
“Their loss is beyond tragic and we will commit ourselves to bringing their murderer to justice,” Hochman said Tuesday. He added that this type of case is “the most serious charge the DA’s office can bring against anyone.”
On the day the couple was found dead, they had plans with their longtime friends Michelle Obama and former President Barack Obama, according to the former first lady.
“We were supposed to be seeing them that night, last night, and we got the news,” Michelle Obama said during an interview on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Monday night.

How Khloé Kardashian, Lamar Odom marriage affected his ex Liza Morales
Liza Morales, Lamar Odom’s high school sweetheart, finally spoke out about the moment she found out that her ex got married to the reality star Khloé Kardashian.
“It was shocking. I couldn’t escape it,” Morales told PEOPLE.
She opened up just days before Netflix releases Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom, a documentary about the basketball star’s life, fame, struggles and relationships.
A big part of the film looks back on his early romance with Morales.
The couple met in high school and Odom proposed to her when they were just 20 and they delayed marriage but went on to have three children together.
But tragedy happened in 2006 when their six-month-old son Jayden died from sudden terrifying syndrome.
The loss, however, left a heavy effect on their relationship and slowly, they went their separate ways.
The fashion designer went on to add that she was blindsided when Odom’s relationship with Khloé Kardashian became public in 2009.
“It was a text message and then a phone call from Lamar, ‘By the way, I’m getting married,’” she recalled.
“Then it was everywhere. It wasn’t just that he got married—it was how it happened. It was rushed, and it hurt.”
Still, Morales shared that she and Odom have reached to a better place now. “It took years. I had to work on myself and heal.”
