I’m mostly through the thread. I just have to say I’m sorry, but there’s no excuse for what he did to his parents. I don’t feel a bit sorry for him. I’ll save my sympathy for his siblings and parents. What a loser. He had advantages most of us never have and threw them away. He’ll find out now how lucky he was.

Addiction is a disease. imo.

I don't think his defense would be to trash his Dad. I think his resentment finally came to escalation where he wanted to silence everything and his impulse behavior took over. Seems like he may have fantasized killing of Dad in his mind. I think Dad was intended target and Mom was because she was there.



Will be interesting to find out whose DNA is all of the blood and blood splatter in motel room.

Blood spatter? Usually that means arterial blood flow and I have never heard that yet.

i do not think Romy had children or is married. Only grandchildren are those of Tracy the adopted daughter.

In this ABC7 article from early Monday morning, a neighbor said that Romy and her children live across the street.


According to a neighbor, actors Billy Crystal and Larry David arrived separately at the home on Sunday evening. The two comedians stayed briefly before departing, and Crystal "looked like he was about to cry," the neighbor said.

There are two houses that the Reiner family owns across the street from each other. Rob and his wife lived in one and a daughter with kids lived in another, according to the neighbor.

Agreed.
I was thinking that meant more like smears, as in -- Nick tried to clean himself or his clothing off ?
Unless he self-harmed, but no word about that yet.
Imo.

I'm truly inclined to believe the MSM above was a misinterpretation between the neighbor and ABC7 reporter, and where this probably would have best been reported as 'a daughter with roommates' lived in the other house (across the street).

IME, parents and/or older neighbors typically refer to young professionals as "kids."

Also, social media of the victims and family is open, and there's no evidence of children/grandchildren attributed to RR!

Other MSM generally reported that the daughter (RR) found the parents deceased after being alerted by the masseuse that there was no answer when she arrived at the residence for a scheduled appointment, and her roommate called 911 to report the horror. (Also, nothing here prevents a roommate from having kids)! JMO

After her parents failed to open the gate to their home, Romy arrived at the scene with a roommate and went inside to check on her mom and dad before finding Rob's body, a source close to the Reiner family revealed to the news outlet.

Romy's roommate, who was waiting outside of the home, was reportedly the one to call 911.

IME it's not just young professionals. My mother just asked me this question 2 days ago (What my father's nickname was for me). My answer... 'The kid'.

So, it's a lot broader than you said.
