SummaryJake Reiner Makes Brave First Appearance Since Murder of Parents, Rob and Michele
4w ago00:53:44Summary readyJake Reiner has made his first public appearances since the murders of his parents, Rob and Michele. He attended the red carpet premiere of HBO's Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness. The murders of Michele and Rob Reiner happened after the pair leave Conan O'Brien's party without their son after his off-putting behavior, like wearing a hoodie to a formal event and interrupting Bill Hader’s private conversation, leads to an embarrassing public row. Reiner, however, doesn’t make his own way to Brentwood. Instead, he pops up in Santa Monica at 4 a.m. Sunday morning, checking into The Pierside hotel. Desk staff don’t notice anything off about Reiner’s appearance, but the next morning, housekeepers find sheets covering the windows, and blood all over Reiner’s bedding and shower. The Reiners’ troubles with their middle child have been bubbling to a head for months. Every photo of the family from the September premiere of Rob’s latest film, "Spinal Tap: The End Continues," picture the 32-year-old sporting a deep scowl. By November, Nick Reiner moves back into his parents’ guest house, which he’s trashed on multiple occasions, leading up to a blowout fight the day after Thanksgiving that left Michele “at her wits’ end.” Nick Reiner has pleaded not guilty.

SummaryKILLER-MOM KOURI RICHINS: "Too Dangerous to be Free"
Jul 1600:52:58Summary readyIt's been four years since father of three, Eric Richins, died from a fentanyl overdose. We now know his ingestion of the drug was planned by his wife Kouri. A jury took just under 3 hours to convict Richins. During the trial, she addressed the court and her children, saying she doesn't want anyone telling them their father was murdered, and for the three of them to look after each other. Then it was the children's turn. Letters written to the court, read by therapists, laid out the depth of the children's lack of warmth for their mother. They told their mother and the judge that if Kouri was released from jail, they would be afraid. Now Kouri is planning her appeal, accusing the judge of bias. The judge has recused himself.
