Nick Reiner Update: Siblings Walk Away Before Trial

He remains in custody without bail. The Los Angeles County DA has not ruled out seeking the death penalty. His next court appearance is April 29th, 2026, where a preliminary hearing will be scheduled.Jake Reiner and Romy Reiner initially hired prominent criminal defense attorney Alan Jackson — who represented Karen Read in her high-profile acquittal — shortly after the murders.

Public defender Kimberly Greene entered Nick's not guilty plea at his February 23rd arraignment and is now his sole representation. Reports indicate she is the only person to have visited Nick during his more than two months in custody.A source with direct knowledge told TMZ: "Nick's defense is Nick's defense.
