Grim Update In Rob Reiner Case As Son Is Booked By LAPD

New details continue to emerge in the tragic deaths of filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner.

What began as a devastating discovery inside the couple’s Los Angeles home has now escalated into a full criminal investigation, culminating in the arrest of their son, Nick Reiner.

With emotions still raw and facts continuing to surface, the case has taken a darker and more unsettling turn.

Authorities confirmed that 32-year-old Nick Reiner was taken into custody by the Los Angeles Police Department as the investigation into his parents’ deaths intensifies.

According to Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department records, he was arrested on Sunday at 9:15 p.m. and officially booked at 5:04 a.m. on Monday.

His charge level is listed as felony, and bail has been set at $4 million.

Rob Reiner and Michele were found dead inside their home on Chadbourne Avenue, each suffering what law enforcement sources described to TMZ as “lacerations consistent with a knife.” Officials reported no signs of forced entry.

In a statement shared on Sunday night, a spokesperson for the family said, “It is with profound sorrow that we announce the tragic passing of Michele and Rob Reiner. We are heartbroken by this sudden loss, and we ask for privacy during this unbelievably difficult time.”

Before becoming a suspect, Nick Reiner had long been open about personal battles that shaped his relationship with his family.

He struggled with severe drug addiction beginning in his teens, cycling through more than a dozen rehab programs and experiencing periods of homelessness.

His experiences later inspired the semi-autobiographical film "Being Charlie" (2015), which he co-wrote and which was directed by his father.

The investigation began after the Los Angeles Fire Department received a call at approximately 3:40 p.m. on Sunday.

Emergency responders arrived to find both Rob and Michele deceased, prompting LAPD Robbery Homicide Division detectives to take over the scene.

As the case develops, Hollywood continues to mourn the loss of a beloved director while grappling with the shocking circumstances surrounding his death.

Before news of his arrest made headlines, Nick Reiner was rumored to be behind his parents' deaths.

Multiple sources who had spoken with Reiner family members told PEOPLE that the 32-year-old killed his dad and mom.

Sources also told the outlet that Nick's sister, Romy, discovered Rob and Michele's bodies after entering their residence.

Reports of Nick's involvement in his parents' deaths sparked an uproar on social media, with several people expressing disbelief and shock at the tragic incident.

Nick's alleged involvement also brought back memories of his troubled past, including a long struggle with addiction, which he detailed in a 2016 interview with PEOPLE.

He told the outlet that he had "gotten acclimated back to being in L.A. and being around my family" after returning home following years of instability.

As investigators continued their work inside the Brentwood residence, Rob's longtime friends Billy Crystal and Larry David arrived separately to pay their respects.

Both stayed only a short time, but witnesses noted the emotional weight of the moment.

According to a neighbor who spoke to ABC7 in Los Angeles, Crystal appeared especially shaken.

The neighbor said the actor “looked like he was about to cry” as he left the property, a detail that quickly circulated through Hollywood.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump is under fire after reacting to Rob Reiner’s death with a message many found shockingly insensitive.

Instead of expressing sympathy, the president used Truth Social to blame the filmmaker’s passing on what he called “a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS.”

Trump claimed that Rob and his wife died “due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction.”

He continued by saying Rob “drove people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump,” adding that the actor’s “paranoia” escalated as his administration “surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness.”

The American President concluded his post by writing, “May Rob and Michele rest in peace!”
