Police Records Show 2019 Wellness and Mental-Health Calls to Reiner Home Before Slayings

Their son is jailed without bail on two murder counts with arraignment set for Jan. 7.

Overview

  • LAPD logs show two 2019 responses to the Brentwood residence, one coded as a welfare check and another as mental-health–related.
  • The Feb. 25, 2019 call directed officers to check on a woman; they arrived within 21 minutes and reported the visit to a supervisor.
  • On Sept. 27, 2019, officers responded regarding a male and documented finding no indication of mental illness at the scene.
  • The records do not identify who contacted police or who was the subject of either visit, and authorities have not linked the incidents to the current case.
  • Nick Reiner was arrested near USC hours after his parents were found dead, is charged with two counts of first-degree murder in their sharp‑force deaths, and is being held without bail ahead of a Jan. 7 arraignment.
