Homicide detectives would present their case on Tuesday to the county district attorney's office to consider formal charges, police said.

Rob Reiner, 78, director of such beloved films as "When Harry Met Sally..." and "The Princess Bride," and his wife Michele, 70, were found slain at their home in the upscale Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles on Sunday afternoon.
