Interesting video explaining the "lying in wait" charge and why the government has brought it

Video begins with a synopsis of the case. Then, around or a little bit after the 14:16 mark (I timestamped the video but if it doesn't work can fast forward), a guest lawyer talks about the "lying in wait" charge. Also some discussion of Nick's effort to get some of his trust fund money.

Nick Reiner Blocked from $1.5M Trust Fund Due to ‘Slayer Statute’ as He Faces Murder Charges for Parents’ Killings

* Nick Reiner’s request to access his trust fund to cover court fees and commissary items has been blocked.

* Trustees cited California’s “slayer statute” while denying the request, stating that criminal proceedings will decide the fate of the money.

* Nick was recently indicted on murder charges in connection with the December 2025 killings of his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, who established the trust fund.
