Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, were killed by their son, Nick, multiple sources confirm to PEOPLE.

On Sunday, Dec. 14, at about 3:30 p.m., the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) was called to a home to provide medical aid, the LAFD told PEOPLE. Upon arrival, they found a man, 78, and a woman, 68, dead. Sources confirm the victims were Rob and Michele.

Rob is a director, producer and actor whose career includes some of Hollywood’s most beloved films — from his 1984 directorial debut, This Is Spinal Tap, to Stand by Me (1986), The Princess Bride (1987), When Harry Met Sally... (1989), Misery (1990) and A Few Good Men (1992).

He first became famous for his role as Mike on the Norman Lear TV sitcom All in the Family.

Rob was born in the Bronx, N.Y., in 1947. His father was legendary comedian Carl Reiner and his mother was actress and singer Estelle Lebost.

Rob and Michele met when Rob directed When Harry Met Sally, and the couple married in 1989 before having three children.

Previously, Rob was married to the late Penny Marshall, who died in 2018 at age 75 of complications from diabetes.

In a 2016 interview with PEOPLE, Nick spoke about his years-long struggle with drug addiction, which began in his early teens and eventually left him living on the streets. He said he cycled in and out of rehab beginning around age 15, but as his addiction escalated, he drifted farther from home and spent significant stretches homeless in multiple states.

Nick told PEOPLE that the chaotic period of addiction — including nights and sometimes weeks sleeping outside — later became the basis for the semi-autobiographical film Being Charlie, which he co-wrote.

“Now, I’ve been home for a really long time, and I’ve sort of gotten acclimated back to being in L.A. and being around my family," Nick told PEOPLE at the time.

Two people were found dead Sunday afternoon inside a Brentwood home owned by director and actor Rob Reiner, multiple law enforcement sources told NBCLA.

The LA Fire Department said a man and a woman were found deceased inside, approximately 78 and 68 years old.

LAPD Robbery Homicide Division detectives were assigned to the case. Several other LAPD officials said they were aware of the investigation but could not share any information.

There is a large police presence at the home Sunday evening.

LAFD paramedics were called to the home on Chadbourne Avenue around 3:30 p.m.

Within a few minutes, LAPD officers were dispatched to the home for a report of an, "ambulance death investigation," which is LAPD terminology when officers are called by firefighters to the discovery of a death.

Neighbors said Reiner and his wife live in the home, and property records indicate they own the home.

While I do agree with that idea, in this case I don't think it would have changed the outcome because the guy had already been in rehab and cycling through treatment facilities since he was 15. (Archive from 2020).

Maybe if he actually got sent to prison or received some sort of lasting punishment, this might not have happened. Though, if he was already in that kind of state when he was 15 then either A) the Reiner's were awful parents or B) Nick was hopeless from the start and it makes me wonder 'at what point do you just put the kid down?'

Prison. Prison would have been the best solution. They'd still be alive considering he clearly was a danger to society.
 
You obviously don't know anything about addiction. You sound like you're 14 years old. Do your homework, and go to bed.
I bet the penal system will know a thing or two about addiction and how to cure it buddy. I'm sure they've done their homework on how to deal with drug addicted degenerates, shame the rich liberal hollywood jews didn't.
 
Trump didn't even mention her.
Well, he wouldn't. Firstly the wife didn't seem to have terminal TDS and secondly, I mentioned this but the wife is actually the one who took the photo of Trump for Art of the Deal. So he knew her, he had a working relationship with her. It would have been in really poor taste to shit-talk her
The internet is forever, and autists exist. I feel like people would be constantly pulling up those tweets or public statements had he said anything ... And even Trump would have mentioned it in his Truth Social post.
It's been what? A day? Give it a week. Wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Rob Reiner was one of those conspiracy theorists who claimed Trump faked his assassination attempt.
Yes, I'm aware. And Charlie Kirk was a strong supporter of the Second Amendment and was assassinated with a hunting rifle. That's what leftists were saying before Kirk's body even got cold.
Yes but Charlie Kirk's point with the Second Amendment was that it was for the greater good that law abiding citizens be given access to weapons even if, unfortunately, people do sometimes get murdered with them. Charlie's murder doesn't diminish that point.

There is no net benefit, no 'greater good' in closing the mental hospitals.

Drug rehab is not the same as institutionalisation in a mental hospital. If anything, going to rehab may have been part of his problem, as they would have, more than likely, tried to treat the drug addiction but not done anything to treat the underlying mental illness that was the cause of the drug addiction in the first place. It's like going to a doctor who treats symptoms but not the underlying disease

Or... an asylum! Oh right the bleeding hearts closed those down, and then when the ill were on the streets they said "well we can't just imprison them!! Gotta let them walk or not prosecute! Funny that the compassion never seems to extend to the populace that gets tormented by insane people wandering around.
Honestly, I'm with Trump on his interpretation. The son was palpably mentally ill and all dad could find to talk about was what Donald Trump was up to. TDS probably did play a role in Reiner's murder
People are sick of the fact that Rob's political leanings led to the worsening of their lives, often by a lot, and for some deadly, while he and many """elites""" remained insulated from the consequences of their... let's be charitable and call it idealism. Harm reduction, decriminalization, closing asylums, catch and release, defunding police, etc etc etc etc. Part of the reason people are so eager to grave dance on this one is because it's sort of karmic in a way, for once seeing one of these advocates suffer in the same way they made so many others suffer over the last few decades. I'm not going to pretend its classy or justified to grave dance, or that Trump did anything good or unexpected. I think it's a shame that it happened, I wish things didn't lead to this. But I can't exactly say I'm going to be weeping for somebody who supported things that measurably made my life worse and eventually ended his own. It's just shitty all around, and I wish we'd learn something from it, but some seem to STILL want to have to be dragged kicking and screaming into accepting something is deeply wrong with the left's base assumptions
 
Seriously? Are you sure?
I saw the list and can confidently say yes, I am sure. I'm just not a movie guy. I grew up in a religious household and by the time I was old enough for the stuff my parents thought were corrupting, I mainly watched criminology drama shows, went outside, and did dorknerd shit with friends. He seems like a really good producer though so I'm sorry for his family.
 
We are already getting an entire news cycle about Trump's post, and it's nauseating as well as annoying.

Personally, I totally understand Trump's bitterness towards Rob Reiner, but this event in of itself has literally nothing to do with politics. It's a horrific and sad family situation, and Trump pretty much made it political with the Truth post.

Trump should have just kept his mouth shut, and let the news cycle organically do its thing as fast as possible in regards to this situation. And if a reporter had asked him about all of it (which we all know they would have), he could have even responded by saying "If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all" or "I never liked the guy and I don't think he was good for the country, but it's bad what happened." I would have honestly been fine with a response like that.

But blaming the guy's death on TDS even though it wasn't political ... Ooooof.

That said ... I will absolutely take back everything I've said about Trump's post if something really heinous comes out about Reiner. I'll be happy to say that I was totally wrong to criticize, lol. My stance on this is what it is right now though.
I'm just going to restate: it literally doesn't matter. None of the "bad things" Trump says matters. They were calling him Hitler before he even was officially in the race for president. The "grab them by the pussy" shit was like 2016. If Trump saying meany bad things meant anything he would have been fucked years ago.

Its kinda surprising how many people on here are genuinely shocked that not everyone is a consumer of movies. You get trashcanned if you dont think Princess Bride is some kind of high art.

Still despite how retarded his views were its an awful way to go and I feel terrible for the daughter that walked in on the aftermath. I probably wouldnt feel the same if he had been personally calling me Hitler, insisting I colluded with Russia, and pushed for my political imprisonment

They really should bring back asylums. Some people are such a danger to society and themselves that they have to be there.

Considering the guy comes off as a sociopath or psychopath, that can't be fixed. It sucks, but it's the truth.


This guy seems like one of those sperms that should have been swallowed. Nothing else would have fixed him.

Yeah, his family lost either way.

I don't know much about mental hospitals OR rehab facilities but don't they operate pretty similarly? I was under the impression that it's mostly voluntary unless it's court ordered and they pretty much just keep you there until you decide to leave or they consider you to be fine and just throw you back out on the curb. Unless you're paying a bunch of money for the good treatment. Seems to me like the main difference boils down to where one is for those who need to be away from drugs and the other is for people who need to be on them.

They really should bring back asylums. Some people are such a danger to society and themselves that they have to be there.
In this scenario, the only difference I see between mental hospitals and prisons is that one has more violent retards than the other one does.

Mental hospitals were definitely filled with a lot of violent people. I remember seeing a video of a woman who was fatally stabbed by a patient.

Not really. I think a rehab facility is basically like 'You're on drugs. What can we do to get you off drugs?' They're probably not going to give you anti-psychotics. If you're schizophrenic and you abuse drugs to get rid of the demons in your head or whatever, most drug rehabilitation programs are probably not equipped to deal with all of that
 
Boomer son of a comedian. Got TV comedy roles as a nepo baby. Had a successful career as a film director from roughly 1984 to 1992. Has done almost nothing of note other than be famous for being famous for about three decades. He is considered an important hollywood celebrity and large numbers of people will reflectively still bow in his direction if the name is mentioned.

Well-known hollywood political fundrasier and political dick in California. Generally in political terms, he behaved like a morbidly obese, hypocritical tyrant who would endlessly lecture everyone else about their lives. He was a massive Biden supporter in the 2024 election cycle. He pretended (ala Stephen Speilberg) to be utterly shocked at Biden's debate performance against Trump in 2024 and (as per many important Biden supporters & fundraisers) blamed everyone but themselves in the aftermath.
What’s interesting to me is that people just stopped giving a shit about his movies after The Bucket List. He couldn’t even drum up interest for Spinal Tap 2.
 
[RUMOUR HAS IT....] his son [FLIPPED] due to being consumed by [MISERY] causing a ton of [SHOCK AND AWE]. it wasn't [THE SURE THING] to do.
if only [A FEW GOOD MEN] were nearby to [STAND BY ME].
[THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT] said a few hurtful words, none mentioning [GOD AND COUNTRY]
let's hope he ticked enough items in his [BUCKET LIST] before he joined the [GHOSTS OF MISSISSIPPI]
 
Well yeah there's going to be dangerous people in mental hospitals but I find it hard to believe that it would compare to a prison. If so, then no wonder they never re-opened. It would be difficult just to afford the staff, let alone a competent one. You may as well just lock them up and that's really the point I was trying to make. Are psych wards a preventative measure to put someone away before they actually follow through with a crime and/or suicide? I'm not convinced this would have prevented Nick from doing what he did, can't fix that type of brain defect and rehab didn't work so he should have been put behind bars. I'd be amazed if he didn't have prior convictions to warrant it.
