Reiner Son Pleads Not Guilty in Parents' Murder

0:00On April 29th, Nick Reiner, the 32-year-old son of Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michellee, showed up in a Los Angeles court room this week. It's his first appearance since pleading not guilty back in February to stabbing his parents to death. He's locked up with out bail on two counts of first-degree murder. During the quick hearing, he agreed to push back the deadline for a preliminary hearing where a judge checks if there's enough evidence for trial. His next court date is September 15th to schedule that. Prosecutors mentioned they're still waiting on full autopsy reports. The bodies of 78-year-old Rob and 7-year-old Michellee were discovered in their Brentwood home on December 14th from multiple stab wounds. Nick got arrested just hours after, facing charges that could mean life in prison or even the death penalty since it involves multiple victims and a knife. Rob Reiner directed hits like The Princess Bride, Stan Bimy, and a few good men and starred as Meathead on All in the Family.

Jake called it a living nightmare in a recent essay, saying nothing hits harder than losing both parents with his brother accused.
