A Nevada elected official was charged with the murder of Las Vegas Review-Journal investigative journalist Jeff German during an appearance in court on Sept. 13.
Clark County Public Administrator Robert Telles, a Democrat, was arrested last week on a charge of “open murder” following a search of his home by authorities which led to a positive match for his DNA with German’s DNA found at the crime scene, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Capt. Dori Koren told reporters at a press conference on Sept. 8.
