Nick Reiner’s first court appearance lasted only minutes, but it raised far more questions than it answered. As new details emerge about his mental state, suicide watch status, and behavior in the days before his parents were killed, a troubling picture is coming into focus. This episode explores the Christmas party his parents didn’t want to attend without him, how their daughter Romy was alerted after a massage therapist couldn’t access the home, and why investigators are still withholding key details. With first-degree murder charges and the death penalty on the table, this case may be about far more than a single night.

With special circumstances alleged and the possibility of the death penalty looming, this case is only becoming more complex.
