No sh*t. There's no indication though that they did this or that with it.

I miss you Oreo.
I am well aware of the differences.
I disagree. It is similar to saying - "the alcoholic". It is a descriptive term.

I HEARD it said with the other things that he was also using. SP, using, meds being changed not working, $70K rehab, etc. And that when you combine using with SP....
They could have said "the former drug addict" too, if that was true, but they didn't.

I KNOW about trusts and the conditions that can be put on them. Many put a certain age on them and most ARE after death.
You are telling someone who knows all of this but no one KNOWS what they had set up or did not have set up.
This DM article has some info about the "Slayer Statute"
It says that the Reiners were found in their beds with their throats cut.
www.dailymail.co.uk
While Nick Reiner faces a possible life sentence if convicted for the murder of his famous parents, he could also be stripped of any potential inheritance.
Nick, 32, was formally charged with two counts of first-degree murder on Tuesday after Hollywood legend Rob Reiner, 78, and his 70-year-old wife, Michele Singer Reiner, were found dead.
The late filmmaker's net worth is estimated at a whopping $200 million by Celebrity Net Worth. But if Nick is included in his parents' will, he might not see a penny of the inheritance if convicted due to California's Slayer Rule, codified in Probate Code Section 250.
The legislation prevents an individual from inheriting property or assets from a person they 'feloniously and intentionally' killed.
'Under California Probate Code Section 250, often referred to as the Slayer Rule, a person who is found to have feloniously and intentionally killed another individual is treated as having predeceased the victim for inheritance purposes,' Craig Parker, assistant general counsel at Trust and Will, told the Daily Mail.
'If Nick Reiner were convicted of murdering his parents, he would be legally barred from inheriting from their estates, whether under a will, a trust, or through intestate succession.'
Nick Reiner was nowhere to be found, but his sister told investigators he should be considered dangerous, sources said.While Nick Reiner faces a possible life sentence if convicted for the murder of his famous parents, he could also be stripped of any potential inheritance.

'If Nick Reiner were convicted of murdering his parents, he would be legally barred from inheriting from their estates, whether under a will, a trust, or through intestate succession.'However, a significant legal loophole remains: if Nick is found not guilty by reason of insanity, he could still inherit, as the slayer statute would not be triggered.
Parker added, 'The Slayer Rule is not automatically applied while a criminal case is pending. In most cases, inheritance rights are effectively placed on hold until there is a final determination. Probate courts may delay distributions or require assets to be held until a conviction or a civil finding establishes that the killing was felonious and intentional.'
And if Nick is deemed insane, things may not change.
Parker explained: 'A verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity does not necessarily resolve the inheritance issue.
'California law allows a probate court to make its own determination, separate from the criminal case, as to whether the killing meets the standard required under the Slayer Rule. If that standard is met, inheritance can still be barred even if the criminal outcome is based on insanity.'

His portfolio includes some of the most beloved films of the modern era, like When Harry Met Sally (1989), Stand By Me (1986), The Princess Bride (1987), A Few Good Men (1992) and Misery (1990).
Those five films alone brought in nearly $500 million in unadjusted box-office revenue and garnered eight Oscar nods, securing an Academy Award win for Kathy Bates' performance in Misery.
The beloved Hollywood director and his wife were both found dead with their throats slit in their Los Angeles mansion on Sunday.
Reiner's son Nick currently remains in jail without bail awaiting trial and is being held on suicide watch in administrative segregation at Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles.
The charges against him carry a maximum sentence of life in prison without possibility of parole or the death penalty.
The source claimed after Hader's alleged comment: 'Nick just stood there and stared before storming off.'
The unsettling interaction concerned other partygoers, the source added.
The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for O'Brien and Nick's attorney, Alan Jackson, for comment and has yet to hear back. A representative for Bill Hader declined to comment.
Rob reportedly brought Nick to O'Brien's holiday party to 'keep an eye on him'.
Guests at the A-list packed holiday party said Nick displayed 'antisocial behavior,' including staring at attendees.
At the party, sources also told People that Nick was 'acting crazy', and 'kept asking people if they were famous'.
Nick's first court hearing was set for Tuesday morning at the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center, but was delayed because he was not medically cleared to be transferred from the jail to the courthouse, according to Jackson.
Jackson told reporters outside the courthouse that he did not know what the medical issue was. Nick appeared in court today, wearing an anti-suicide vest, where he did not enter a plea. His arraignment has been continued until January 7.
He was arrested several hours after his parents were found dead in their home.

Good article. It's encouraging to see even before conviction, they can place any inheritance on hold. I heard it could be done, just wasn't sure how easily. And that INCLUDES trusts he could not inherit from.This DM article has some info about the "Slayer Statute"

Nick Reiner once destroyed parents' guest house in drug-fueled rage
I had heard that they were killed in bed but never heard it confirmed. I had thought from the start that that was likely the case too. If that is the case, some real brave dude isn't he? NOT. Killing sleeping, helpless individuals who are HIS PARENTS.
"Alleged murderer" is accurate. "Son" is accurate.
Mel70
I miss you Oreo.
So alleged drug addict then?.
"is treated as having predeceased the victim". Meaning he would not inherit at all - it would go to the other siblings.
However, if they had already set up a trust for him while they were alive, because of his drug rehab costs, presumably that would continue though?
No i think he was a proven addict still under rehab, apparently $70k monthly costs, at the time of his arrest. I guess he is in prison rehab now - since his arrest.

I miss you Oreo.
I read that Romy found them. She called 911, and didn't know Michelle was dead when she found Rob.

I miss you Oreo.
If that's the case. They weren't in the middle of an argument. To me that further says it was planned.
Separate bedrooms maybe. How awful for her to find one dead, let alone both.
