10 Sealed Subpoenas: Attorney Eric Faddis On What Alan Jackson Found Before Leaving Nick Reiner

from The Reiner Murders | The Trial Of Nick Reiner · host Hidden Killers Podcast

Alan Jackson's team issued ten subpoenas during their investigation of the Nick Reiner case. The judge sealed that list from prosecutors. Then Jackson withdrew — and declared Nick "not guilty of murder" on his way out.What kind of witnesses and records would a defense building toward insanity be subpoenaing? And why keep that list sealed even after the attorney leaves? Attorney Eric Faddis breaks down the legal strategy.Jackson said he was "legally and ethically prohibited" from explaining his withdrawal, citing circumstances "beyond Nick's control." Speculation has focused on money — especially since Nick reportedly can't inherit under California's Slayer Statute. But Jackson specifically said the circumstances were "beyond Nick's control." If it's not about money, what else forces an attorney off a case they clearly believe in?Nick is now represented by Deputy Public Defender Kimberly Greene. He's charged with two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances. There's a sealed medical order reportedly relating to his mental health treatment. He appeared at his first hearing in a suicide prevention smock.Eric examines the competency question. Sources say Nick's medications still aren't stabilized. At what point does this shift from mental health issues to a formal competency challenge — and what does that process look like in California?Then there's the gas station surveillance video showing Nick calm hours after the murders. Legal experts say it "cuts both ways." Eric walks through how prosecution and defense would each use that footage.DA Nathan Hochman hasn't ruled out the death penalty. The surviving siblings reportedly oppose it. Eric analyzes how victim family input actually influences prosecutorial decisions in parricide cases — and what the road ahead looks like.#NickReiner #EricFaddis #AlanJackson #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #SealedSubpoenas #InsanityDefense #ReinerCase #TrueCrime #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
