Did the Trust Nick Reiner’s Parents Created Become the Reason They Died?

Rob and Michele Reiner built a trust for their son when he was a baby. They wrote the terms. They chose the language — “mandatory and unconditional.” Half at thirty, the rest at thirty-five. No conditions. No discretion. No off switch. Nick turned thirty in September 2023. The money reportedly never came. Twenty-seven months later, his parents were dead.
The 136-page probate petition his lawyers filed reads less like a trust dispute and more like a motive timeline. The new trustee, Jodi Montgomery — known nationally for the Britney Spears conservatorship — has reportedly requested a meeting with Nick in custody. Alan Jackson’s defense firm has filed a declaration stating they will return the moment the trust money is released.
California’s slayer statute is supposed to prevent a killer from profiting off the killing — but the age-thirty distribution was allegedly owed before anyone was killed. The legal question is whether a statute designed to block profit from a crime can reach an obligation that predated the crime. Nick has pleaded not guilty to both counts of murder.
A look back at the most compelling stories of the week.
