Can Nick Reiner Still Inherit? The Slayer Statute Loophole That Could Change Everything

Nick Reiner needs money. A lot of it. He's facing two counts of first-degree murder. He just lost his high-profile attorney. And he's now being represented by a public defender who had less than 24 hours to prepare.Meanwhile, his parents' estate — estimated at $200 million — sits untouched.California's slayer statute says you can't inherit from someone you killed. It's supposed to be straightforward. But there's a catch: the statute only bars inheritance for "felonious and intentional" killings. Nick hasn't been convicted. And if his defense was headed toward an insanity plea — which Alan Jackson strongly hinted at before withdrawing — there's a legal question that hasn't been answered: Does an NGRI verdict exempt someone from the slayer statute?If Nick is found not guilty by reason of insanity, he technically didn't "intend" to kill anyone. Does that mean he could still inherit?Estate lawyers say this is largely untested. But it raises serious questions about why the family reportedly funded an insanity-focused defense in the first place — and why they stopped.In this episode, we break down Nick's legal options for accessing the estate, explain what his siblings can do to block him, and examine why losing Alan Jackson may have closed the only door Nick had left.$200 million. No lawyer. No income.
