Nick Reiner Pleads Not Guilty to Murdering Parents Rob Reiner and Michele Reiner

Nick Reiner faces two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances; prosecutors have not decided on seeking the death penalty, and a preliminary hearing is set for April 29.

  • On Feb. 23, Nick Reiner pleaded not guilty at his Los Angeles arraignment on two counts of first-degree murder with special-circumstance allegation in the deaths of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner.
  • On Dec. 14, authorities found Rob and Michele Reiner dead in their Brentwood home and arrested Nick Reiner near USC around 9:15 p.m., less than six hours later.
  • The Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner found both died from "multiple sharp force injuries," and prosecutors allege a knife was used, with possible penalties including death or life without parole.
  • The judge set an April 29, 2026 preliminary hearing to determine if evidence warrants trial; Alan Jackson withdrew last month, and Kimberly Greene now represents Nick Reiner.
  • Court records and reporting show a history of addiction and a 2020 conservatorship; Reiner was diagnosed with schizophrenia and argued with his father at a Conan O'Brien holiday party while living in a guest house on family property.
