Alan Jackson looked at the cameras yesterday and said something no one expected. Nick Reiner is not guilty of murder. Print that. Then the high-profile defense attorney who got Karen Read acquitted withdrew from the case without explanation. Said he's legally and ethically prohibited from telling us why. Said circumstances beyond Nick's control forced his hand.
Nick Reiner sits in an LA jail facing two counts of first-degree murder for the stabbing deaths of his parents, legendary director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer Reiner. The charges carry special circumstances. The death penalty is still on the table. A sealed psychiatric order is sitting in the court file. The arraignment is pushed to late February.
Former FBI Behavioral Analysis Program Chief Robin Dreeke has spent decades studying human behavior and predicting violence. Today he joins me to break down what we know about Nick's mental state in the weeks and hours before the murders. The schizophrenia diagnosis. The medication change sources say destabilized him. His alarming behavior at Conan O'Brien's party the night before — the staring, the interruptions, the argument with his father that sent his parents home early. We analyze what Jackson's statement signals about the defense strategy and whether an insanity argument can succeed in a double murder case this brutal.
