Rob Reiner and wife Michele had throats slit in their bed: Gruesome murder timeline emerges amid details of son Nick’s motel room ‘full of blood’

Rob Reiner and his wife Michele were found in bed with their throats cut and may have been asleep when they were murdered, a source close to the investigation claimed to the Daily Mail.

The gruesome detail could help establish a timeline of the killings, for which the couple’s 32-year-old troubled son Nick has been arrested.

The Reiners died some time between Saturday evening – when Nick was seen acting erratically and arguing loudly with his parents at Conan O’Brien’s Christmas party – and around 3.30pm on Sunday, when their daughter Romy called 911 after having discovered their bodies at the family’s Los Angeles mansion.

‘He could have done it not long after they all went home, meaning he went there and slit their throats in the middle of the night,’ the source claimed. ‘They were in bed when that happened.’

One report on Showbiz 411 suggests Michele, 70, was still alive when she was found and died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital after she had told first responders her son was the one who attacked them.

The Los Angeles Police Department has not officially confirmed any details of where in the house the Reiners’ bodies were found.

But the claim that his parents were found dead in their bed could suggest a small mercy in the tragic incident: that they may have been killed in their sleep.

Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, were killed by their son, Nick, according to multiple sources who have spoken with family members. Police have not yet confirmed the account.

On Sunday, Dec. 14, at about 3:30 p.m., the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) was called to a home to provide medical aid, the LAFD told PEOPLE. Upon arrival, they found a man, 78, and a woman, 68, dead. Sources confirm the victims were Rob and Michele.

Police say Nick, 32, is alive and being questioned. No arrests have been made.

Rosie O’Donnell’s Daughter Sentenced to Prison amid Sexual Assault Allegations

Rosie O’Donnell’s daughter is facing time behind bars.

According to documents obtained by Us Weekly, O’Donnell’s daughter Chelsea was sentenced to prison last week after violating her terms of probation.

A judge in Wisconsin ruled that the 28-year-old had violated her probation due to sexual assault allegations and had also failed to show adequate progress in her drug treatment program.

“The facts surrounding this request have been staffed with the Marinette County Treatment Drug Court Team and have been deemed sufficient grounds to warrant termination from the Marinette County Treatment Drug Court Program,” the filing read.

Chelsea will reportedly serve her sentence at Taycheedah Correctional Institution, a medium-security prison in Wisconsin.

However, the length of her sentence has not yet been publicly disclosed.

Her mother took to Instagram to ask people to pray for her troubled daughter.

“My child chelsea belle – before addiction took over her life – i loved her then i love her now as she faces a scary future- prayers welcomed,” the actress wrote.

Hollywood producer David Pearce mocked for ‘LA vibe’ by judge before getting hit with 146-year sentence for rapes, twisted OD murders

Monster producer David Pearce used his “LA vibe, slicked-back hair and duck lips” charm to drug and prey on nine young women over 15 years — and three of them are now dead, authorities revealed at his sentencing Wednesday. 

The wannabe Hollywood bigwig was handed 146 years in prison — the max — after he was convicted of murder earlier this year for drugging model Christy Giles, 24, and pal Hilda Marcela Cabrales-Arzola, 26 and leaving them to die after they overdosed on his fentanyl-laced cocaine following a night out in November 2021. 

But that was only the end of his brutality, not the beginning. He was also convicted of raping seven women who came forward after his arrest — including a hero cop who was killed in the line of duty days before she would have confronted him in court. The attacks dated back to 2007.

“You’re the worst kind of criminal, Mr. Pearce,” LA County Superior Court Judge Eleanor Hunter raged from the bench, condemning the man as a smooth-talking seducer who had “the whole LA vibe thing going on” with his “duck lips” and “slicked back hair.”

He assaulted Lauren Craven in 2020. She went on to become a promising young police officer in La Mesa, CA — a career choice partly inspired by her horrifying encounter with Pearce, one prosecutor told the court.

Dismembered body found in singer D4vd’s abandoned Tesla ID’d as teen girl

The dismembered corpse found rotting in Bronx-born singer D4vd’s abandoned Tesla in California was identified as a teenage girl, Los Angeles authorities confirmed on Tuesday.

The female victim, whose identity wasn’t announced pending her family’s notification, was between 14 and 15 years old, sources told ABC 7.

The petite teen, standing at 5 feet 2 inches, was previously described as having wavy black hair and weighing around 71 pounds — roughly 20 pounds less than an average girl of her stature should weigh.

She was found wearing a tube top with black leggings and a yellow bracelet with similar metal stud earrings. She also had a tattoo on her right index finger that read “Shhh…”

Her body was wrapped in plastic and locked in the Tesla’s trunk, where her corpse baked in the California heat for at least five days. The body was so badly decomposed that it wasn’t fully intact and was first reported to authorities because the car itself started to emit a “foul odor.”

D4vd, whose legal name is David Anthony Burke, found himself at the center of the gruesome discovery after authorities linked the impounded, Texas-plated Tesla back to him. Burke has been cooperating with police as he continues his world tour.

Rapper Azealia Banks Claims Iryna Zarutska Was a ‘Spy/Prostitute’ and Murder Suspect Was a ‘Gov’t Hitman’

Rapper Azealia Banks wrote a wild conspiracy theory that the Ukrainian refugee who was killed on the Charlotte mass transit system is a “spy” and “prostitute,” and the murder suspect is a “government hitman.”

Iryna Zarutska, 23, was stabbed multiple times on the Charlotte light rail train on August 22. She died on the spot, bleeding to death on the floor of the train after the unprovoked attack from behind. Police later arrested Decarlos Brown Jr., 34, and charged hm for the woman’s murder.

But now, Azealia Banks says she thinks there is some sort of grand conspiracy taking place here. Instead of a cowardly murder, Banks seems to think there is something out of a bad Jason Bourne movie going on in North Carolina.

“Honestly guys – I don’t think this was random,” she wrote in her Wednesday X post. “Spirit tells me she was a spy/prostitute of some sort and he’s a contract killer for some government agency or another.”

“Because no one else would get let off FOURTEEN TIMES. We also have heard near zero from her friends/family/coworkers etc.,” Banks theorized — obviously wholly unaware that criminals are being let loose from jail wholesale by left-wing prosecutors, and “justice” systems in deep blue cities all across the country.

“She is definitely some Ukranian [sic] prostitute who was sent to spy and had some information someone didn’t want her to have and they offed her,” she declared.

“Parents randomly stuck in Ukraine due to the war? Come on…… And no community of young girls who would have been her peers came out to mourn her??? One friend named ‘Lonnie?’”

She continued, spinning more to her tale, writing, “That aunt and uncle have no occupation listed. The parents in Ukraine probably don’t even exist.”

Actress Amber Tamblyn Mocks the Fact that Charlie Kirk’s Daughter Witnessed His Gory Assassination

Actress Amber Tamblyn suggested that the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was a “public execution” and mocked the fact that Kirk’s daughter witnessed his horrific and gruesome murder.

“Wish granted,” Tamblyn wrote in a Thursday BlueSky post, sharing a February 24, 2024 Newsweek article, headlined, “Trump Ally Charlie Kirk Suggests Children Should Watch Public Executions.”

The actress was therefore suggesting that Kirk was “executed” for the fictitious crime of exercising his First Amendment right — seemingly in agreeance with a murderous assassin.

For context, the Newsweek article cited an episode of The Charlie Kirk Show, in which Kirk and co-hosts were hypothetically discussing murderers who have been sentenced to the death penalty receiving a public execution, surmising that crime may go down as a result.

At one point during the panel discussion, co-hosts shared their opinions about what they believed the age limitations should be for people attending a theoretical public execution — should they exist.

LA’s secret celebrity tunnel was just a rumor. Until workers found it.

In its near-century of existence, Chateau Marmont — a faux French castle perched on a hill near the entrance of West Hollywood’s Sunset Strip — has kept countless secrets for the artists, actors and other icons that have stalked its halls. It has also held a few mysteries of its own, including a long-rumored secret tunnel. 

Famously, the bohemian playground-slash-hotel doesn’t allow photos in its public spaces so that guests can unwind away from the outside world’s prying eyes. (Not that it’s ever stopped paparazzi from lurking on the sidewalk right outside.) As such, Chateau Marmont’s reputation as a comforting haven has made it a Hollywood favorite, with film director Billy Wilder once describing its appeal this way: “I would rather sleep in a bathroom than in another hotel.”

Every once in a while, though, fizzy tales do manage to trickle outside Chateau’s secretive walls, such as when Lindsay Lohan reportedly racked up a staggering $46,000 tab from her extensive stay there, or when Doors rocker Jim Morrison scaled the rooftops of the hotel’s bungalows late at night throughout the 1960s.

‘American Idol’ Double MurderSuspect Arrested in Wild New PhotosMore Than a Dozen Cops Surround Him

The man suspected of killing an “American Idol” music supervisor and her husband was taken into custody yesterday … and, TMZ has obtained pictures of the arrest.

The photos show 22-year-old Raymond Boodarian standing in front of a row of garages at a residential complex, with numerous cops surrounding him … no shirt on and his hands cuffed behind his back.

The pictures are all taken from behind Boodarian, so you can’t see his face. One garage door behind the group is open … though it’s unclear if that’s where he came from.

As we told you … Boodarian was arrested Tuesday after law enforcement sources told us they found fingerprints at the house of Robin Kaye and her husband, Thomas Deluca, that matched the suspect.

‘American Idol’ boss, husband executed in their $4.5 million home in gory double murder

A boss on “American Idol” and her husband were executed in a suspected double murder inside their $4.5 million Los Angeles home, cops said.

Robin Kaye, an award-winning music supervisor for the hit competition show, was found slaughtered along with her musician husband, Thomas Deluca, after an apparent break-in at their house in the upscale Encino neighborhood, a Los Angeles Police Department source told TMZ.

Both were 70.

The couple’s bodies were found during a “welfare check” Monday afternoon after they had not been heard from in four days, the LAPD said.

Both victims had what appeared to be gunshot wounds to the head. 

“There is no suspect information at this time. LAFD responded and pronounced the victims deceased at scene. The motive is unknown. The investigation is ongoing,” the department told The Post.

Kaye was found dead in the pantry, and Deluca in the bathroom, NBC Los Angeles reported.

Officers also found blood in the entryway and a broken window, which the killer possibly used to get inside.

The home was apparently not ransacked, pointing away from the possibility of a burglary, authorities told TMZ.

Aerial footage of the house from ABC 7 showed what looked like a smashed sliding glass door.

The cops were called to the house Thursday after neighbors spotted a suspicious person hopping the fence, but officers found no evidence of foul play.
