Rob and Michele Reiner’s official cause of death has been revealed

The official cause of death for Rob and Michele Reiner has been confirmed by officials.

The County of Los Angeles Medical Examiner lists the cause of death for both the “Princess Bride” director and his wife as “multiple sharp force injuries,” with the manner being “homicide.”

The Reiners were found dead in their Brentwood home Sunday afternoon after their son Nick Reiner allegedly murdered them.

Nick made his first appearance in court today, facing two counts of first-degree murder. His lawyer, Alan Jackson, did not enter a plea for his client, and Nick’s arraignment has been postponed until January 7 at Jackson’s request.

Nick’s siblings, Jake and Romy, released a statement earlier today addressing their parents’ tragic deaths.

“Words cannot even begin to describe the unimaginable pain we are experiencing every moment of the day. The horrific and devastating loss of our parents, Rob and Michele Reiner, is something that no one should ever experience,” they shared in a statement to TMZ. “They weren’t just our parents; they were our best friends.”

The statement continued, “We now ask for respect and privacy, for speculation to be tempered with compassion and humanity, and for our parents to be remembered for the incredible lives they lived and the love they gave.”

Romy is reportedly the person who discovered her father’s body at their home after a massage therapist contacted her alerting her that they were unable to get inside for a scheduled appointment.

According to The New York Times, Romy arrived and discovered her father’s body before she allegedly “fled” the house. The outlet reports the scene was so traumatic that Romy did not realize her mother, Michele, was also dead inside.

Her roommate immediately called 911, while Romy reached out to her father’s longtime friend, Billy Crystal. It wasn’t until paramedics arrived at the scene that Romy learned the full scope of the tragedy, that her mother had also been killed, the Times reported, citing a source close to the family.

She made the horrifying discovery hours before Nick was found by police and arrested near the University of Southern California campus around 9:15 p.m. that same evening. Authorities confirmed Nick was not at the family home when Romy arrived.
