STORYLINE:
The LA County Medical Examiner Wednesday listed the primary cause of death for both Rob and Michele Reiner as “multiple sharp force injuries” as the office released its investigators' initial findings.

The office said more investigation is needed before further details will be revealed, but the bodies can now be released to the family.

The cause of death was consistent with police describing the couple as having stab wounds.

The information came on the same day the couple's son, Nick, made his first court appearance in Los Angeles on two counts of first-degree murder in the killing of his parents.

Nick Reiner, 32, did not enter a plea as he appeared from behind glass in a custody area in the large Los Angeles courtroom where newly charged defendants are arraigned. He was in shackles and wearing a blue, padded suicide prevention smock used in jail.
