What we know about the charges and arrest

Prosecutors say Nick faces special circumstances for multiple murders and is accused of using a knife, making the case eligible for the death penalty—though that decision hasn't been made yet.
He was arrested near USC on Sunday night, booked early Monday, and his initial $4 million bail has been revoked.
The couple is survived by their children Jake, Romy, and Tracy.
