Podcast appearances and mentions of Rob Reiner

Here's a question nobody's answering clearly: Can Nick Reiner — the man charged with murdering Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner — legally access their $200 million estate to pay for his defense?He has no money of his own. He wasn't employed. He was living in his parents' guesthouse. And now he's facing two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances, represented by a public defender who learned about the case the day before his arraignment.Three weeks ago, Nick had Alan Jackson — one of the highest-profile defense attorneys in the country. The family was reportedly footing the bill from the estate. Then Jackson withdrew. The family stopped paying. And nobody's explaining why.California's slayer statute is supposed to prevent this exact situation — you kill someone, you don't inherit from them. But the statute requires a finding of "intentional" killing. What if Nick mounts an insanity defense? What if he's found not guilty by reason of insanity? Does that change everything?We dig into the legal loophole that could theoretically preserve Nick's inheritance, explain why his siblings can block any distribution, and break down what it actually means to go from a $2,000-an-hour attorney to an overworked public defender in a capital-eligible case.The money is there. The question is whether Nick can ever touch it.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #TrueCrimeToday #SlayerStatute #InsanityDefense #Parricide #TrueCrime #MurderCase #CriminalDefenseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Our week in review on the Nick Reiner case — the insanity defense mechanics, the family's impossible situation, and a mental health system that failed everyone.Nick Reiner faces two counts of first-degree murder for stabbing his parents Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner to death. The defense strategy has been clear from the start: mental health. Sources confirm Nick was diagnosed with schizophrenia years ago and his medication was changed weeks before the killings. A sealed medical order is already on file. An insanity plea appears inevitable.Defense attorney Bob Motta walked us through what that means under California's M'Naghten standard — one of the strictest tests in the country. The defense must prove Nick didn't understand his actions or didn't know they were wrong. The burden falls entirely on them, not prosecutors. Bob explained what evidence matters, how these cases are built, and where Nick goes if the defense succeeds.But we also confronted the harder truth. Nick's own podcast admissions reveal seventeen years of deliberate manipulation — gaming rehab programs, convincing his parents the experts were wrong, engineering the living arrangement that put him in their guesthouse instead of supervised care. Can calculated choices over nearly two decades coexist with legal insanity?Rob and Michele had two options. Let Nick go back to homelessness and addiction. Or keep him close and hope he didn't hurt them. Rob reportedly told friends the night before he died he was terrified his own son could harm him. California's Lanterman-Petris-Short Act made involuntary commitment nearly impossible. The system gave them no third choice. Millions of families face that same impossible decision right now.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #BobMotta #InsanityDefense #MentalHealth #CaliforniaLaw #HiddenKillers #WeekInReview #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nick Reiner is broke. Unemployed. Sitting in jail charged with double murder. His parents — Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner — left behind an estate worth $200 million. And under California law, there may be a way he could still get his hands on it.Wait, what?The slayer statute is supposed to prevent killers from inheriting from their victims. But it only applies to "felonious and intentional" killings. What happens if Nick is found Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity? What if a jury decides he couldn't form intent? Does the statute still apply?Estate lawyers say this is largely untested territory. And it raises an uncomfortable question: Was the insanity defense always about more than just avoiding prison?In this episode, we examine the legal mechanics that could allow Nick Reiner to challenge for his inheritance even after being charged with his parents' murders. We break down why the family reportedly hired a $2,000-an-hour attorney — then stopped paying. And we explain what it means that Nick is now represented by a public defender who had 24 hours to prepare for this case.The Reiner fortune is sitting there. The question is whether Nick has any path to it. The answer might surprise you.#NickReiner #RobReiner #ReinerCase #SlayerStatute #TrueCrime #InsanityDefense #CaliforniaLaw #Parricide #MurderTrial #HKLiveJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week's Hidden Killers Live review covered the Nick Reiner case — breaking down the legal strategy and the systemic failures that made this tragedy inevitable.Nick Reiner faces two counts of first-degree murder in the stabbing deaths of his parents, filmmaker Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. The defense has made clear mental health is the centerpiece — sources confirm Nick's schizophrenia diagnosis and a medication change weeks before the killings. A sealed medical order has been signed. The insanity defense is coming.Defense attorney Bob Motta joined us to explain exactly how that defense works under California's M'Naghten standard. It's one of the strictest tests in the country. The defense carries the burden of proving Nick either didn't understand what he was doing or didn't know it was wrong. Bob broke down what evidence matters most, how these cases are tried, and what happens if the defense wins.We also examined Nick's seventeen years of documented manipulation — his podcast admissions about gaming rehab, convincing his parents to reject expert advice, maneuvering himself into their guesthouse instead of supervised treatment. Does deliberate behavior over years undermine an insanity claim? That's the question prosecutors will hammer.Rob reportedly told friends the night before he died: "I'm petrified of Nick. I think my own son can hurt me." He was right. And California's mental health laws gave him no options. The Lanterman-Petris-Short Act makes involuntary commitment nearly impossible unless someone is imminently dangerous — not probably dangerous, not deteriorating, but about to act. By then it's too late. Millions of families are trapped in that same impossible position right now.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #HKLive #InsanityDefense #BobMotta #MentalHealth #CaliforniaLaw #TrueCrime #WeekInReviewJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/bILFgB6kFo4  In this Case Brief, we analyze the latest developments from the Los Angeles arraignment of Nick Reiner, who is charged with the murder of his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. A look at the surprise withdrawal of Nick Reiner's private attorney, Alan Jackson, due to "circumstances beyond our control" and the immediate appointment of the Public Defender's office. The Deputy Public Defender, Kimberly Green, is assigned to the case and successfully puts over the arraignment to a new date, February 23rd. We dissect Alan Jackson's strong public statement that "pursuant to the law in California, Nick Reiner is not guilty of murder," which appears to foreshadow a defense strategy centered on a "not guilty by reason of insanity" plea (or a similar mental disease or defect defense). The DA's office expressed their full confidence that a jury will "convict Nick Reiner beyond a reasonable doubt of the brutal murders of his parents." A breakdown of the legal meaning and impact of the court issuing and holding "body attachments" for defense subpoenas, a process used to maintain jurisdiction over non-compliant parties until the next court date. The case is expected to move slowly, and the legal process will be crucial in revealing the true facts surrounding the situation.

Today we're breaking down the defense strategy everyone's talking about — and why it almost never works.Alan Jackson made his intentions clear before walking away from Nick Reiner's case: "Nick Reiner is NOT guilty of murder under California law." Translation: insanity defense.Nick was reportedly being treated for schizophrenia at the time he allegedly killed his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. TMZ reports a schizoaffective disorder diagnosis. His medication was changed weeks before the killings, and sources describe his behavior as "erratic and dangerous."But California doesn't care if you're mentally ill. It cares if you were legally insane at the exact moment of the crime. That's the M'Naghten Rule — and it's brutal. The defense must prove Nick either didn't understand what he was doing or couldn't tell right from wrong in that specific instant.Less than one percent of defendants try this defense. Only about a quarter succeed.Attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to explain how California's insanity defense actually works — the two-phase trial process, how medication changes factor in, and what evidence prosecutors will use to argue Nick knew exactly what he was doing.We also examine the addiction angle. Nick has a documented history of cocaine and stimulant abuse. California recognizes "settled insanity" from long-term drug use — but psychosis from voluntary intoxication at the time of the crime doesn't qualify. How do these two factors interact?If the defense wins, Nick goes to a state psychiatric facility. If it loses, he faces life in prison or worse.Here's what you need to know about the hardest defense in criminal law.#NickReiner #RobReiner #InsanityDefense #TrueCrimeToday #CaliforniaLaw #Schizophrenia #MurderCase #MNaghtenRule #LegalExplainer #MentalHealthJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Today in the Nick Reiner case: his defense just imploded.Alan Jackson, the criminal defense attorney who took Nick's case within hours of his January 6th arrest, told a Los Angeles judge he had "no choice" but to withdraw. He cited circumstances "beyond Nick's control." Sources tell Deadline that money is the issue — but Jackson's exit statement tells a different story.Standing outside the courthouse, Jackson declared: "Pursuant to the laws of California, Nick Reiner is NOT guilty of murder. Print that." That's not a withdrawal statement. That's a closing argument.Nick is now represented by LA County Public Defender Kimberly Greene, who told reporters she'd had about thirty seconds with her new client before the hearing. She said she'd had no contact with the Reiner family and didn't believe they knew Jackson was leaving.On today's episode, attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis explains what this withdrawal actually means. What happens to the ten sealed subpoenas Jackson's team issued? Does Greene inherit his investigation? How does a public defender prepare for a capital case on this timeline?We also look at who's prosecuting: Deputy DA Habib Balian, who handled the Menendez resentencing and secured a conviction against Robert Durst. Does the defense chaos give him an opening?Arraignment is now February 23rd. No plea has been entered. The insanity defense is being signaled loudly. And the man accused of killing Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner just lost his hand-picked legal team.This case is moving fast.

Rob and Michele Reiner are dead. Their son Nick is charged with their murders. And millions of families watching this case are seeing their own nightmare reflected back at them.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins True Crime Today to examine what the Reiner family was really facing — and why their tragedy is a warning about a mental health system that keeps failing the people who need it most.The Reiners weren't negligent parents. They were desperate ones. For seventeen years, they tried to help a son who was struggling with addiction and, reportedly, schizophrenia. Eighteen treatment programs. World-class facilities. Unlimited resources. Rob Reiner himself admitted they felt lost, that they trusted professionals who couldn't deliver results, that they feared the tragic ending was coming.It came. And they're not alone.Shavaun explains what families face when someone they love has a severe mental illness. Why love and money aren't enough. Why the treatment industry so often fails. Why schizophrenia gets missed when addiction is the visible problem. She breaks down what happens when medication changes go wrong — sources say Nick became “erratic and dangerous” after a medication switch weeks before the killings.We also examine why families can't protect themselves. Conservatorship was reportedly in the works when Rob and Michele died. The legal system moves slowly. Mental illness doesn't wait. Shavaun explains the barriers families face and why intervention comes too late far too often.This case is getting attention because of who the Reiners were. But this story is playing out in families across America every single day — families with far fewer resources and even fewer options.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeToday #Schizophrenia #MentalHealth #TrueCrime #FamilyTragedy #MentalHealthCrisisJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Alan Jackson's final words as Nick Reiner's attorney weren't a goodbye — they were a legal prediction: "Nick Reiner is NOT guilty of murder under California law."He's signaling an insanity defense. And that defense just became someone else's problem.Nick Reiner was allegedly being treated for schizophrenia at the time he killed his parents, director Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. Sources tell NBC4 about the schizophrenia diagnosis. TMZ reports schizoaffective disorder. Multiple outlets confirm his medication was changed weeks before the killings, leading to behavior described as "erratic and dangerous."But here's what people misunderstand: having a serious mental illness isn't the same as being legally insane. California uses the M'Naghten Rule — one of the strictest standards in the country. The defense must prove that at the exact moment of the crime, Nick either couldn't understand what he was doing or couldn't distinguish right from wrong.Less than one percent of defendants plead insanity. Only about a quarter of those succeed.Attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to break down how this defense actually works — and whether Nick Reiner has a realistic shot. We examine the difference between competency to stand trial and legal insanity, how medication changes factor into the defense, and what prosecutors will use to undermine claims of psychosis.We also discuss what happens if the defense succeeds. Nick wouldn't walk free — he'd be committed to a California state hospital, potentially for life.The insanity defense is one of the hardest strategies in criminal law. Does Nick Reiner's case meet the standard?

We celebrate the work of Rob Reiner by taking a look at two of his classic takes on Stephen King works. First up, we look for a dead body in STAND BY ME. Then, we get captured by our number one fan in MISERY.

US Weekly has just crowed Blake Lively the winner of the legal battle and the PR battle with Justin Baldoni.

Rob Reiner once said he wanted his children to "find their own way" and didn't want them feeling like they didn't have to work. But Nick never worked. Nick never found his own way. Nick lived in his parents' guest house at thirty-two, collected a ten-thousand-dollar monthly allowance, and had every bill paid for him.The gap between what Rob said he valued and how the family actually functioned is at the heart of this tragedy.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us for an in-depth examination of the Reiner family dynamics. This isn't about what happened on December 14th — it's about the seventeen years that preceded it. How did a family with unlimited resources, genuine love, and every good intention create a system that enabled their son's worst impulses?Shavaun explains the psychology of families organized around one member's dysfunction. She examines how parents get trapped in enabling patterns they can't see or escape. She explores what it meant for Jake, Romy, and Tracy to grow up in Nick's shadow — watching their parents pour everything into a sibling who kept taking and never got better.We also discuss what's happening now. Sources say the surviving siblings are using estate money to fund Nick's defense because they want him in a psychiatric facility rather than prison. Shavaun helps us understand whether this is love, loyalty, grief — or the continuation of a family pattern that's already proven fatal.#RobReiner #MicheleReiner #NickReiner #ShavaunScott #ReinerCase #FamilyDynamics #Codependency #Enabling #Psychology #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense attorney Bob Motta joins us live to break down two cases dominating headlines — the Sarah Grace Patrick trial delay in Georgia and the Reiner murders in California — and take your questions in real time.Sarah Grace Patrick, 17, is charged as an adult with murdering her mother Kristin Brock and stepfather James Brock in Carroll County, Georgia. The trial was set for January 5th, 2026. It didn't happen. Prosecutors requested more time to respond to a defense neuropsychologist's evaluation, and Judge Dustin Hightower pushed the case to August 3rd, 2026. The defense's earlier continuance motion was denied. When the state needed time, they got seven months.Bob Motta examines what this signals about the prosecution's case. No murder weapon has been produced. No forensic evidence linking Sarah to the killings has been publicly disclosed. No firearm was found at the scene. Claims about disabled cameras remain unproven allegations. The Carroll County Sheriff's Office announced they had "mountains of evidence" — but the state couldn't go to trial.Then we turn to the Reiner case. Nick Reiner is accused of killing his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, in Brentwood. This is the fifth alleged patricide in Southern California in recent weeks. Police had responded to the home multiple times over the years. Nick had cycled through seventeen rehab programs. His father reportedly told friends the night before that he was "petrified" of him. California's mental health laws made meaningful intervention nearly impossible. We discuss what families can actually do when warning signs are everywhere and the system offers no options.Join us live with your questions.#SarahGracePatrick #NickReiner #BobMotta #LiveStream #TrueCrimeLive #DefenseAttorney #MentalHealthCrisis #CarrollCounty #RobReiner #TrueCrime2025Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nick Reiner told the world exactly who he was. In 2016 interviews, he admitted he hated getting sober, chose homelessness over rehab, and met his heroin dealer through connections he made in treatment. He called himself "a spoiled, white, rich kid from a Hollywood family" and said he had "resistance every time they tried to reach me." His father Rob Reiner acknowledged they ignored Nick when he said the programs weren't working because they trusted the professionals over their own son.Eighteen rehab stints by age twenty-two. Facilities costing up to $70,000 per month. A wilderness program in Utah where Nick says the seed of his heroin addiction was planted. And through it all, the money kept flowing. Ten thousand dollars a month in allowance. A guest house on the Brentwood estate. Every bill paid.Now Rob and Michele Reiner are dead, allegedly stabbed by Nick in their bedroom on December 14th. And according to sources, their estate is funding Nick's defense. His attorney is Alan Jackson, the high-powered lawyer who represented Kevin Spacey and got Karen Read acquitted. Jackson's fees run into the millions. Nick has never worked.Nick is off suicide watch and faces arraignment tomorrow. The defense will likely argue mental illness — Nick was reportedly diagnosed with schizophrenia and his meds were changed weeks before the killings. But this isn't just a story about mental health. It's about seventeen years of checks that bought everything except accountability. And one final check, signed from beyond the grave.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #AlanJackson #Rehab #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeToday #Addiction #BrentwoodMurder #HollywoodMurderJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Tuesday marks a turning point in the Nick Reiner case. The 32-year-old son of legendary filmmaker Rob Reiner will stand before a judge and, for the first time, enter a plea on two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances.Everyone watching knows what's coming. Defense attorney Alan Jackson has spent three weeks telegraphing it. "Very complex and serious issues." A sealed mental health order. A client who appeared in court in a suicide smock after failing to receive medical clearance the day before.Not guilty by reason of insanity.But what does that defense actually require in California? It's not enough to be mentally ill. It's not enough to have schizophrenia, which sources confirm Nick was diagnosed with years ago. Under the M'Naghten standard, the defense must prove he either didn't understand the nature of stabbing his parents to death, or didn't know it was wrong.That's a high bar. And prosecutors have ammunition. Nick's own words — recorded on podcasts — show a man who knew how to manipulate systems and people. Seventeen rehab programs gamed. Parents convinced to ignore experts. A calculated campaign to remain in their lives despite every warning.Can you claim insanity for a single night while demonstrating strategic thinking for seventeen years?Bob Motta joins True Crime Today to break down the legal mechanics of what's coming. The two-phase trial process. How psychiatric testimony works. What happens if the defense actually wins — and whether Nick Reiner could ever walk free.The arraignment is just the beginning.

The night before he died, Rob Reiner reportedly told friends at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party: "I'm petrified of Nick. I think my own son can hurt me."He wasn't guessing. He was describing something he'd been living with for years.An LAPD insider said police had responded to the Reiner home "quite a few" times over the years for incidents involving Nick. A neighbor told the New York Post this wasn't the first time Nick had been violent. Professionals had reportedly warned the family. Nick himself admitted on podcasts to manipulating his parents, gaming rehab programs, and convincing them to trust him over the experts.Everyone saw the warning signs. No one could stop what was coming.California's mental health laws are designed to protect individual liberty — but they leave families like the Reiners with almost no options. You can't force an adult into treatment unless they're about to hurt someone right now. A 5150 hold gives you 72 hours before they walk out. Conservatorship takes years to obtain and has to be renewed annually.Rob and Michele did everything they could. Millions on treatment. Seventeen rehab programs. Keeping Nick close because the alternative was watching him die on the streets. And in the end, their son allegedly murdered them anyway.Bob Motta joins Hidden Killers to talk about what law enforcement sees in cases like this — the repeated calls, the escalating incidents, the families begging for help. When officers respond to a home over and over, what can they actually do? And why does the system keep failing the people it's supposed to protect?This is the conversation about everything that happened before the crime.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #HiddenKillers #WarningSigns #MentalHealth #TrueCrime #LPSAct #California #FamilyTragedyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The White House says President Trump and his advisers are discussing options for how to acquire Greenland. The self-governing territory of Denmark, a NATO partner, is located in a prime spot to monitor threats to the U.S. and is rich in rare earth minerals. Danish officials have long rejected the proposal. Sen. Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican, spoke to CBS Mornings about Congress' role following the U.S. operation in Venezuela. He also addressed the Trump administration's comments on Greenland. When asked about the U.S. possibly using military force, he said, "it won't happen under my watch. I will do everything to stop any kind of military takeover of Greenland." Democrats on Capitol Hill welcomed witnesses of the Jan. 6 attack to testify at a public hearing Tuesday and held a vigil honoring the victims. Meanwhile, the White House posted a new website about Jan. 6, calling the rioters "patriotic" and accusing Capitol police of escalating tensions with the crowd. Scott MacFarlane has more. Nick Reiner, the son of Rob and Michele Reiner, is set to be arraigned Wednesday in the killing of his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner.

In recent months, Southern California has seen a disturbing pattern emerge: multiple cases in which adult sons are accused of killing their fathers—or both parents. The Reiner case is one of several now drawing public attention, alongside cases involving the Cordes family, Juan Gonzalez in Perris, and Joshua Bonilla in Lake Balboa.These cases are not identical. But together, they raise a broader question: what happens when warning signs accumulate for years, yet intervention never comes?In the case involving Nick Reiner, investigators and court records point to a long history of instability prior to the killings of his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. Police had reportedly responded to the family's Brentwood home multiple times over the years. A neighbor later described prior violent behavior. Reiner himself discussed cycling through numerous rehabilitation programs and acknowledged manipulating treatment systems during that time.According to reporting, the night before the killings, Rob Reiner expressed fear about his son's condition to people close to him. The concern wasn't sudden. It had been building.This case highlights a recurring problem in California's mental health and public safety framework. Involuntary commitment of adults requires an imminent threat. Short-term psychiatric holds are limited in duration. Once released, families are often left to manage severe mental illness without meaningful authority, training, or support—while still being expected to keep everyone safe.Defense attorney Bob Motta joins True Crime Today to examine the pattern that often precedes family violence. What do repeated police calls actually accomplish? What options do officers have when someone is clearly deteriorating but not yet chargeable? And for families living with fear inside their own homes, what—if anything—can be done before a situation escalates beyond control?The warning signs in the Reiner case were not hidden. The question now is whether the system is structured to act on them—or whether it is built to respond only after tragedy.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #TrueCrimeToday #MentalHealthCrisis #WarningSigns #CaliforniaCases #SystemFailure #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nick Reiner is expected to be arraigned Tuesday on two counts of first-degree murder in the stabbing deaths of his parents, filmmaker Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. From the outset, his defense team—led by high-profile attorney Alan Jackson—has made one thing clear: mental health will be central to this case.Jackson has described the killings as a “devastating tragedy” involving “very complex and serious issues,” language that strongly signals a forthcoming insanity defense. Court filings already include a sealed medical order signed by the judge, and multiple sources have confirmed that Nick Reiner was diagnosed with schizophrenia years ago, with reported changes to his medication in the weeks leading up to the killings.All of that points toward a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity. But what does that actually mean under California law?California applies the M'Naghten standard, one of the strictest insanity tests in the country. To prevail, the defense must prove that at the time of the alleged acts, Nick either did not understand the nature and quality of what he was doing, or did not know that it was morally or legally wrong. The burden is entirely on the defense—not the prosecution.In this interview, defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down what Alan Jackson is likely building behind the scenes. What kind of psychiatric evidence actually carries weight with a jury? How do expert evaluations work? And if an insanity defense succeeds, what happens next—state hospital commitment, duration, and the realistic prospects for eventual release.We also confront the hardest question in this case. Nick Reiner's own podcast admissions describe years of manipulation—gaming rehabilitation programs, controlling narratives, and persuading his parents to distrust medical professionals. Can a long pattern of deliberate behavior coexist with a claim of legal insanity at the moment of the killings?Bob Motta walks through the legal strategy, the trial mechanics, and what to expect when Nick Reiner formally enters his plea.The insanity defense is not a loophole. It is one of the most difficult defenses in criminal law to win. This is how it actually works.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #InsanityDefense #AlanJackson #CaliforniaLaw #BobMotta #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Fakeologist Show, described as an “IPS joint,” aired this episode on Monday, January 5, 2026, featuring host discussion with Tim Osmond regarding the deconstruction of global events and media narratives. The participants reflected on 2025 as a “psyop rich environment” where they refined their methodology for identifying media fakery and staged events, such as the reported deaths of Charlie Kirk and Rob Reiner, which they categorize as psychological operations rather than organic news. The show serves as a “fake news wood chipper,” utilizing a research group known as the IPS think tank to analyze patterns in the “theater of psywar”—a concept suggesting that major history-making events are prefabricated scripts performed for the public.Key highlights from the discussion include:Technology and AI Integration: Tim Osmond detailed his transition to using Substack for broadcasting and NotebookLM for analyzing documents and creating “transcript synopses” of episodes.Analysis of “Predictive Programming”: The hosts analyzed the film Leave the World Behind as a “meta-script” by the Obamas, suggesting it prepares the public for a “lockdown of the internet” and the implementation of digital IDs to treat “mind viruses”.Cultural Hoaxes: The show explored the “Frankenstein” subtext surrounding the Rob Reiner story and the “9-11 coded” death of Dick Cheney, arguing these are archetypal storylines meant to serve specific agendas.The Future of Control: The discussion touched on the idea that “alien invasion” themes in media are actually preparing humanity for an AI takeover or a “higher intelligence” referee that will eventually manage human affairs.Featured Quotes:“Instead of reacting, respond. Instead of being triggered, suspend judgment and then give it time and then decide.” — Tim Ozman “I think 2025 was one of the most SIOP rich environments we've lived through... everything just broke down as we thought it would.” — Tim Ozman“Alt media is just like an alternative pen. They'll let you get off the farm and go a little free range, but you still can't go too far.” — FakeologistTo understand their perspective, one might think of their approach as being like a theatrical critic watching a play; while the rest of the audience is emotionally swept up in the drama on stage, the hosts are busy pointing out the stagehands in the wings and the script sitting on the director's tableLinks Mentioned in the Showips.monsterinfiniteplanesociety.substack.comfakeologist.comfakeologist.blogshortfake.com/Discordshortfake.com/Restreamfakeologist.com/donateThe show functions like a filter for a muddy river, where the participants attempt to strain out the “silt” of manufactured propaganda to see what underlying structures remain in the water.
