Rob Reiner's tragic final weekend emerges: Conan's party, the Obamas and unthinkable violence
"It was supposed to be a weekend of celebration for Rob and Michele Reiner. They attended Conan O'Brien's Christmas party Saturday and planned to meet Barack and Michelle Obama Sunday night. But that gathering with the first lady and 44th president never happened. The couple were found dead in their Brentwood home Sunday afternoon, and their son Nick Reiner was arrested on suspicion of murder."
"Nick Reiner had a long history of substance abuse problems and gave numerous interviews about his attempts at rehab and stints of homelessness. He said he was in recovery at age 22, when he and his father produced a film based on his struggles, but at age 24 said in a podcast interview that he had since relapsed on methamphetamine."
Rob and Michele Reiner were found dead in their Brentwood home Sunday afternoon. Their youngest child, Romy, discovered the couple. Officers located their son, Nick Reiner, about 15 miles away in South Los Angeles and booked him on suspicion of murder. Nick had earlier gotten into a fight with his parents at a holiday party at Conan O'Brien's home. The family had growing concerns about Nick's mental health. Nick had a history of substance abuse, periods of homelessness, and a reported relapse on methamphetamine after a previous recovery attempt. Michelle Obama had planned to meet the Reiners that Sunday evening.
