Hollywood legend, Rob Reiner, and his wife, Michele Reiner’s cause of de@th has been formally revealed after their son, Nick Reiner, made his first court appearance in the double murd£r case.

The County of Los Angeles Department of Medical Examiner said that the couple passed away after suffering from ‘multiple sharp force injuries.’

Online records show the Hollywood legend and his photographer wife d!ed on Sunday, the same day they were discovered in their $13.5 million mansion.

Both of their deaths have been ruled homicides, with the place of de@th listed as their residence.

Nick was arrested on Sunday and has been charged with two counts of first-degree murd£r in the killings of his 78-year-old father and 70-year-old mother.

Prosecutors added special circumstances of multiple murd£rs and use of a dangerous weapon, a knife, meaning, if he is convicted, Nick could face life in prison without the possibility of parole or even the death penalty.

The 32-year-old made a brief court appearance on Wednesday, wearing an anti-suicide vest, where he did not enter a plea.

Nick’s famous defense attorney, Alan Jackson, asked the judge for a continuance, saying that he ‘needed more time’ to prepare his case.

When the judge asked blank-faced Nick ‘if he agreed that his arraignment should be continued, he answered, ‘Yes, your honor.’ His arraignment was pushed to January 7, and he was ordered to be held in jail without bail.

Jackson addressed the media after the hearing and asked people not to ‘rush to judgment’ about the case.  

‘This is a devastating tragedy that has befallen the Reiner family,’ Jackson said.

‘There are very, very complex and serious issues that are associated with this case. These need to be thoroughly and very carefully dealt with.

‘We ask that throughout this process you allow the system to move forward in the way that it was designed to move forward, not with a rush to judgment.’

Shortly after the hearing, the couple’s other children, Romy and Jake, released a heart-wrenching statement on their de@ths.

‘Words cannot even begin to describe the unimaginable pain we are experiencing every moment of the day,’ the grieving siblings said.

‘The horrific and devastating loss of our parents, Rob and Michele Reiner, is something that no one should ever experience.

‘They weren’t just our parents; they were our best friends. We are grateful for the outpouring of condolences, kindness, and support we have received not only from family and friends but people from all walks of life.’
