A former Democrat Clark County, Nevada, public administrator was found guilty on Wednesday of murdering longtime Las Vegas Review-Journal reporter Jeff German in September of 2022.
After three days of deliberation, the jury returned a guilty verdict in the trial of 47-year-old Robert Telles, who is now convicted of stabbing German to death after the reporter wrote about scandals within Telles’ office before he lost a primary election in June 2022, CNN reported. German had spent years covering the corruption within Las Vegas politics, but the story that ultimately led to his murder focused on a little-known public office, prosecutors said.
