BREAKING: Nick Reiner Was Under Court-Ordered Conservatorship Before Parents' Murder—Here's Why It Ended

BREAKING: Nick Reiner Was Under Court-Ordered Conservatorship Before Parents' Murder—Here's Why It Ended

Major new developments in the Nick Reiner case. The New York Times has confirmed that Rob and Michele Reiner's son was placed under an LPS mental health conservatorship in 2020—California's most extreme intervention for severely mentally ill adults. A judge found him "gravely disabled." Licensed fiduciary Steven Baer was appointed to make treatment decisions on his behalf. Nick could be forced to take medication and placed in a locked psychiatric facility against his will.

The conservatorship lasted one year. It ended in 2021. It was never renewed.

On True Crime Today, we explain exactly what an LPS conservatorship allows, why families cannot initiate these proceedings on their own, and the legal provision that may have made renewal impossible: under California law, if someone is providing for a mentally ill person's basic needs, that person may not qualify as "gravely disabled."

The Reiners were housing Nick. Feeding him. Caring for him. And that very act of love may have disqualified him from continued involuntary treatment.

We also examine the reported medication change approximately one month before the December 14th killings. Sources say Nick's previous medication was working but caused weight gain. The new medication allegedly made him agitated, erratic, and triggered what one source called a "complete break from reality."

Former defense attorney Alan Jackson said Nick is "not guilty of murder" under California law. This conservatorship history will be the foundation of that defense. Nick Reiner's arraignment is scheduled for February 23rd.
