Nick Reiner is reportedly no longer on suicide watch, nearly one month after his parents’ grisly murders.
The suicide prevention smock that the 32-year-old was previously required to wear has been removed, People claimed on Monday.
Nick, notably, wore the smock during his first court appearance on Dec. 17.
Ahead of his arraignment, which is set to take place Wednesday, the outlet claimed Rob Reiner and Michele Reiner’s son is still in solitary confinement at Los Angeles’ Twin Towers Correctional Facility.
Nick, who entered the prison on Dec. 15 on two counts of first-degree murder, will reportedly remain in High Observation Housing (HOH) and continue to be monitored until a judge or court hearing deems otherwise.
Nick’s lawyer has yet to respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
As the suspect remains behind bars, his siblings — brother Jake, 34, and sister Romy, 28 — are leaning on each other at their family’s beach house in California.
Page Six recently obtained photographs of the duo walking along the shore collecting rocks.
Romy reportedly was the one to find Rob and Michele’s bodies after the couple were stabbed to death in their home.
As for Nick, he was caught on camera wandering around Los Angeles prior to his arrest — and left behind a bloodstained hotel room.
Nick, who long struggled with drug addiction, was reportedly diagnosed with schizophrenia and had his meds changed weeks before the gruesome murders.
His behavior subsequently became “alarming,” TMZ reported, claiming Nick was “out of his head.”
He did, notably, make a scene at Conan O’Brien’s Christmas party with his parents the night before their bodies were discovered.
A pal said at Rob and Michele’s memorial service last month that the “petrified” late director admitted at the bash that he was “afraid of [his] son” and thought Nick could “hurt” him.
In the wake of Rob and Michele’s “horrific” and “devastating” deaths, Romy and Jake released a heartbreaking statement.
“Words cannot even begin to describe the unimaginable pain we are experiencing every moment of the day,” they wrote, in part. “They weren’t just our parents; they were our best friends.”
