Nick Reiner appears with Deputy Public Defender Kimberly Greene (not pictured) during his arraignment in Los Angeles County Superior Court in Los Angeles, California, charged with the murder of his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, in their Los Angeles home in December last year. Nick Reiner pleaded not guilty to two counts of first-degree murder in the deadly knife attack on actor-director Rob Reiner, 78, and photographer-producer Michele Reiner, 70. Their bodies were found on December 14 inside their West Los Angeles mansion.

If Nick Reiner is convicted as charged, he would face life in prison without the possibility of parole, or prosecutors could decide to seek the death penalty.
