Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner’s son, Nick Reiner, is currently under arrest after being charged with the murder of his parents, and his stay in prison is reportedly bleak.

Nick has been on suicide watch since his arrest, and is ordered to wear a suicide prevention vest at all times, which he was also seen wearing during his first court appearance.
The accused writer is reportedly kept in complete solitude and is only allowed to interact with his authorized legal authorities, as one source said. People Magazine.
Nick is also under constant supervision via video camera, which remains under the authority of the escort officer.
“This is important so that no one compromises this high-profile case, and so that no civilian or prisoner can ask him questions, such as why he killed his parents,” they told the outlet.
While reports have emerged about Nick’s altered mental health and diagnosis of schizophrenia, the source confirmed that he is examined by mental health professionals daily and will remain under suicide prevention surveillance until doctors declare him safe.
