Jake Reiner’s 1st interview about his parents' killings, his brother's arrest, and moving forward

Jake Reiner says the past eight months have felt like a living nightmare as he copes with his parents’ killings and his brother’s murder case.

  • On Thursday, Jake Reiner gave his first sit-down interview to KABC, describing the past eight months since his parents Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner were killed as a "living nightmare."
  • Rob and Michele Reiner were stabbed to death in their Brentwood home on December 14, 2025; their son Nick Reiner was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder, pleading not guilty.
  • Jake Reiner was at Union Station on December 14 when his sister Romy Reiner called with devastating news: "Romy told me our dad was dead, and then she said, 'I can't find mom.'"
  • Earlier this month, a grand jury formally indicted Nick Reiner, adding an allegation he was lying in wait; Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman called the killings a "profound betrayal."
  • While navigating his grief, Jake Reiner supports his sister and aunt while continuing work with the Children's Institute, which serves about 30,000 children and families annually through education programs.
