Nick Reiner does ‘drugs,’ threatens to kill dog in eerie video with sister Romy
Rob Reiner’s problem child Nick appeared in his own bizarre YouTube video where he feigned doing drugs and jokingly claimed he was going to kill a dog nearly a decade before he was charged with murdering his parents Sunday.
The 2016 amateur clip resurfaced this week as the 32-year-old son was accused of fatally stabbing famed movie director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer Reiner inside their Brentwood estate.
In the bizarre video, Nick was pretending to be a music mogul named “Dddavid” as he walked around his ritzy neighborhood while an interviewer behind the camera asked him a series of questions in the mockumentary.
At one point, his younger sister Romy also showed up in the wacky six-minute video as Nick attempts to answer a question with a barking dog in the background.
“I’m gonna go f—king kill that f—king dog,” he said wearing a red hat and sunglasses before a short clip of Baha Men’s “Who Let the Dogs Out” was mixed in.
Here’s the latest on the death of Rob Reiner:
It was Romy who found famed director dad Rob Reiner hacked to death on Sunday, and reportedly immediately pointed the finger at Nick.
In the decade-old video Nick — who has been public about his drug use — was also shown smoking at one point before asking “Where’d you get this weed?”
Later in the clip, it showed white powder being arranged on a tray to appear like drugs before he acts like he’s snorting it.
“You bought heroin off a transvestite?” a guy can be heard saying behind the camera after the video cuts to Nick and a second person walking down a street.
The clip shows Nick riffing on various mockumentary-style questions and attempting to interact with neighbors.
In a prophetic line, he rapped, “And I don’t even care if anyone calls me a Sally because I’m a snail and I’m never gonna f—king fail and you know, you’re gonna have to bail me outta jail.”
Nick is currently being held without bail in a LA lockup for the murder of his parents.
A family source in reference to the video told People Nick “was always creative, but misguided.”

“He grew up around Hollywood A-listers and their lifestyles and it didn’t seem to occur to him that any of that could be taken from him,” the source claimed.
“The hardest thing for Nick was following through on his ideas and doing the work he didn’t find exciting.”
The death of Rob Reiner, who directed a famed films including “A Few Good Men” and “When Harry Met Sally,” and wife Michele sent shockwaves across Hollywood this week.
The couple’s other children, Jake and Romy Reiner, called their parents their “best friends” and asked the public to remember them for “the incredible lives they lived and the love they gave.”
They made no mention of Nick.
