Death penalty off the table in Reiner parents' killing
Los Angeles prosecutors announced they will not pursue capital punishment against Nick Reiner in the killings of his parents, Rob and Michele Reiner.
Los Angeles prosecutors will not seek the death penalty against Nick Reiner if he is convicted of killing his parents, filmmaker Rob Reiner and photographer Michele Reiner, a decision that removes the most severe punishment from one of the country’s highest-profile murder cases. Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman announced the decision Tuesday before a hearing in downtown Los Angeles, Reuters reported.
