Nick Reiner, 32, the son of filmmaker Rob Reiner, was arrested by LAPD and accused of killing his parents, Robert and Michele Singer Reiner. Police said he was responsible for their deaths, shocking Hollywood and drawing renewed attention to his troubled past.
Nick has long spoken publicly about severe addiction, repeated rehab stays, periods of homelessness, and a strained relationship with his family. He later turned those experiences into the film Being Charlie, directed by his father. Now charged with murder and held without bail, his decades-long personal struggles have taken a tragic and legal turn as prosecutors review the case.
