Rob Reiner’s son Jake speaks out about parents’ murders in 1st interview
'He's in jail. It's like, I physically lost my parents, and then Nick was arrested. Now it's just me and Romy,' Jake Reiner said of his family.
Jake Reiner, son of slain parents Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, gave his first interview eight months after their murders. In an emotional conversation with KABC-TV Los Angeles, the 35-year-old discussed the trauma of losing his parents and his brother Nick's indictment on murder charges. Jake expressed his anger over the unfairness of the situation, feeling he had no control over the events.
He also spoke about respecting his parents' legacy and carrying on his filmmaker father's work, acknowledging their love and pride in him. The Los Angeles District Attorney's Office charged Nick with two counts of murder, including the special circumstance of lying in wait. If convicted, he could face the death penalty.
