32 Years Of Protection Are Over — The Systems That Failed Rob & Michele Reiner Now Turn On Nick

For 32 years, every system Nick Reiner touched conspired to protect him from consequences. The money conspired. The rehabs conspired. The family conspired. More than 18 treatment facilities that cashed checks and released him after 30 days conspired. The doctors who changed his medication because he complained about weight gain conspired.

Everyone around Nick Reiner entered into an unspoken agreement to keep him comfortable, to keep him afloat, to keep him from ever facing a consequence that money couldn't erase.

A family associate told the New York Times that the Reiners had "grown used to" Nick's behavior. His father getting into a loud argument with him at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party didn't even register as unusual anymore.

Now the conspiracy has flipped.

Nick reportedly admits to killing his parents Rob and Michele Reiner. But according to TMZ sources, he doesn't understand why he's in jail. He believes his incarceration is part of a conspiracy against him. He's right — he just doesn't realize he was the beneficiary of that conspiracy his entire life.

Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down what happens next. California's insanity defense doesn't require proving Nick didn't know right from wrong — only that he didn't understand the "nature and quality" of his actions. Nick is reportedly not competent to stand trial. His medication was changed one month before the murders. The weapon hasn't been found.

Prosecutor Habib Balian — Menendez brothers, Robert Durst — is on the case. A new DA campaigned on being tough on crime. Nick's siblings reportedly oppose the death penalty.

Bob Motta examines the critical distinction between competency and legal insanity, what Alan Jackson's withdrawal signals, and whether the system finally holds Nick Reiner accountable — or whether he beats it one more time.
