Karl violently battered the brothers physically and emotionally, so they were the prime suspects then Karl and his wife Evelyn were killed, as well as taken to trial for the murders. Nick also once broke Karl’s jaw during a scuffle in the past when Nick was drunk.
The brothers were acquitted and released from the conviction of Alex Petrovich, the real killer, thanks to the testimony of accomplice Sasha Osinski. He and Greg inherit 10 millions inheritance each. (L&O: “The Serpent's Tooth”)
