Celebrity Lawyer's Shocking Withdrawal Shakes Courtroom
16 Jan
Summary
- Lawyer Alan Jackson withdrew from the Nick Reiner murder case unexpectedly.
- Jackson also represents Fraser Bohm, charged in a fatal PCH crash.
- Nick Reiner's case involves the death of his parents, facing potential death penalty.
Lawyer Alan Jackson recently withdrew from the Nick Reiner murder case, citing "circumstances beyond our control." This withdrawal followed Jackson's continued representation of Fraser Bohm, 25, who pleaded not guilty to murder and vehicular manslaughter charges. Bohm allegedly caused a fatal October 17, 2023, crash by driving over 100 mph on the Pacific Coast Highway, killing four Pepperdine University students.
Bohm's case saw a judge deny motions to dismiss murder charges and reduce his $4 million bail. Jackson, who publicly stated Nick Reiner is "not guilty of murder," discussed his exit from that case on a podcast, refuting financial speculation. Nick Reiner faces two counts of first-degree murder for the December 14, 2025, deaths of his parents.
The judicial proceedings continue for both clients. Bohm's next court appearance is scheduled for February 10, while Nick Reiner's case, now represented by public defender Kimberly Greene, will be heard on February 23. Jackson's departure from the Reiner case remains a subject of intense public interest.
