Rob Reiner’s daughter’s chilling comment to police after actor and wife found dead at home

Citing unnamed sources, TMZ further reported that Romy made a chilling statement to officers at the scene, allegedly suggesting that the family member in question “should be a suspect” and describing them as “dangerous.”

A source familiar with the investigation, though not authorized to speak publicly, told the Los Angeles Times that there were no signs of forced entry at the home. The same source indicated that the victims’ injuries were consistent with stab wounds, adding to the seriousness of the case.

During a press conference held late Sunday, LAPD Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton emphasized that the investigation was still in its early stages. He confirmed that detectives were in the process of obtaining a search warrant to conduct a thorough examination of the property.
