Nick Reiner misses court over parents' murder case

Entertainment

Nick Reiner, son of famous director Rob Reiner and Michele, didn't show up for his Los Angeles court hearing on Tuesday because he wasn't "medically cleared," according to his lawyer.
His first court appearance could be as early as Wednesday, but whether Nick attends depends on his health.
The case centers on the deaths of his parents, whose bodies were found at their Brentwood home.

What's going on with the investigation?

Nick was arrested Sunday after checking into a Santa Monica hotel where staff found blood stains in his room—though he had no blood on him when he arrived.
Investigators are looking into his past struggles with drug addiction and a recent public argument with his parents as they try to piece together what happened.
Public interest is high because of Rob Reiner's Hollywood legacy, but Nick's legal team isn't sharing who's funding his defense.
