This dude was out of rehab and banging sex workers at 14.
Maybe people are being too harsh on him. Of course, what he did was wrong. He also obviously had a bad upbring. That does NOT mean his father and step-mother deserved to be killed. It's not letting him off the hook. But he turned out the way he did for a reason.
The 32-year-old was arrested Monday in connection to the deaths of his parents, Rob and Michele Singer Reiner.

“I was just looking at the different [Craigslist] profiles, and this one [profile picture was] just an ass shot,” the screenwriter, 32, revealed on the “Dopey” podcast in 2017.
“That’s the only thing that was her profile picture — and it had a number,” he detailed. “I called her up when I was about 14 or something, and her going rate was about $200.”
“This is the part of the story that I don’t usually tell, but I’ll tell it anyway,” Nick added. “I got $200 from my parents.”
He clarified that he didn’t tell his parents what the money was for. “I didn’t say, ‘Hey, look, I’m going to be with a [sex worker] tonight. Do you think you have an extra $200?'”
“It was also like 1 a.m. … She comes over. I didn’t know how it worked, so I tried to kiss her. "She didn’t want that,” he detailed.
Describing the experience, Nick admitted to not finding the woman attractive but not caring because he “was young.”
“I was like, ‘This is awesome,'” he continued. “[I lasted] 15 seconds … I kind of felt like s–t, but I was like, ‘That’s awesome.’ Then I realized I had more money on me, and I called her back. She came for a second time.”
“I never asked her name and I never really got into any specifics of anything,” Nick added, explaining he ate a “pot brownie” beforehand and “was extremely blazed.”
“But I still would have done it if I was sober,” he said.
Nick, who has been in and out of rehab, admitted to getting the idea to contact a sex worker online through a fellow outpatient rehab patient.
On Sunday, Page Six revealed that Nick had been arrested on murder charges after his parents were found stabbed to death at their Los Angeles home.
He’s being held at Twin Towers Correctional Facility without bail.
A neighbor of the couple told The Post on Monday that Nick had a history of violence, but they “never thought it would ever get to this point.”
