Nick Reiner was in yearlong mental health conservatorship in 2020: Report

A major development in the stabbing death of Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife could play a crucial role in the case against their son. Nick Reiner is charged with fatally stabbing his parents in their Los Angeles home last month. According to the New York Times, Nick Reiner was placed in a year-long mental health conservatorship in 2020. A judge determined that he had a grave disability and was unable to provide for his basic personal needs. The conservatorship was not renewed in 2021, which could be a key question as the case moves forward. Nick Reiner is due back in court next month.
