Nick Reiner Spent 18 Trips to Rehab Gaming the System — Now His Dead Parents Pay for Alan Jackson

Nick Reiner told the world exactly who he was. In 2016 interviews, he admitted he hated getting sober, chose homelessness over rehab, and met his heroin dealer through connections he made in treatment. He called himself "a spoiled, white, rich kid from a Hollywood family" and said he had "resistance every time they tried to reach me." His father Rob Reiner acknowledged they ignored Nick when he said the programs weren't working because they trusted the professionals over their own son.

Eighteen rehab stints by age twenty-two. Facilities costing up to $70,000 per month. A wilderness program in Utah where Nick says the seed of his heroin addiction was planted. And through it all, the money kept flowing. Ten thousand dollars a month in allowance. A guest house on the Brentwood estate. Every bill paid.

Now Rob and Michele Reiner are dead, allegedly stabbed by Nick in their bedroom on December 14th. And according to sources, their estate is funding Nick's defense. His attorney is Alan Jackson, the high-powered lawyer who represented Kevin Spacey and got Karen Read acquitted. Jackson's fees run into the millions. Nick has never worked.

Nick is off suicide watch and faces arraignment tomorrow. The defense will likely argue mental illness — Nick was reportedly diagnosed with schizophrenia and his meds were changed weeks before the killings. But this isn't just a story about mental health. It's about seventeen years of checks that bought everything except accountability. And one final check, signed from beyond the grave.
