Nika Rayner, accused of murdering his parents, faces the death penalty
As District Attorney Nathan Hochman stated, a decision on whether to seek the death penalty or to settle for life imprisonment without the possibility of parole has not yet been made. During the proceedings, the prosecution will consider the opinions of the victims' relatives.
It is worth noting that on December 14, Rob and Michelle Reiner were found dead in Los Angeles. Their bodies showed injuries consistent with a knife attack. Later, police arrested 32-year-old Nick Reiner, who became the main suspect in this crime.
