The horror of the discovery that shattered Hollywood's quiet veneer this week is almost unimaginable. Director Rob Reiner, the man who brought us cinematic treasures like When Harry Met Sally... and The Princess Bride, was found dead alongside his wife, Michele, in their Los Angeles home on a bleak Sunday afternoon, their lives brutally cut short. The victims' own son, Nick Reiner, was immediately sought by police after the couple's daughter, Romy, found her parents deceased — a tragic end to what sources describe as years of anguish over their son's struggles.
The devastating scene was uncovered on Sunday, Dec.14. Romy Reiner arrived at the family's Los Angeles property, only to make a horrifying discovery: her parents, Rob and Michele Reiner, lay dead with their throats slit. Emergency services arrived just before 4 p.m. local time, but the search for the prime suspect had already begun. Romy told police that her brother, Nick, had been living at the home but was nowhere to be found, explicitly warning authorities that he was 'dangerous'.
