Robert Reagan, 51, was booked on suspicion of murder, with bail set at $1 million.

A neighbor said his wife, who was home at the time of the incident, didn’t hear any loud noises or fighting coming from Nesci and Reagan’s home, and he had never noticed anything “wrong or weird” with the couple in the past. Police said that Rocco is at the home of a friend or a relative, but have not yet established whether or not he was in the home at the time of the alleged murder, Saucedo said. Reagan appeared on the six-episode series.

Loredana Nesci received her undergraduate degree from the University of Connecticut, according to her website, TheLegalDiva.com.

The couple were in the process of renovating their home and, according to the show, struggling with mounting bills.

On Wednesday, their neighbor, Ranj Khindri, said they moved in to the single-family house about a year and a half ago. “(Reagan) was always very combative with a (next-door) neighbor but not with us, since we lived up the street. After working at two Connecticut law firms-where she picked up the name “The Legal Diva”-Nesci returned to Los Angeles in 2004″. Nearby resident Justin Glickman said he would regularly see Reagan, a general contractor, though not Nesci.

At least, aside from when they were filming Nesci’s reality TV show, Loredana, Esq. As a police officer, she responded to the North Hollywood shootout in February 1997, when heavily armed bank robbers confronted police in an epic confrontation that injured 11 officers and seven civilians. The former fitness competitor enjoyed yoga and cycling.

Then in 2013 the Sundance Channel produced and aired a non-fiction television show called, ‘Loredana, Esq.’, which ran for a season.
