A jury on Wednesday found a former Las Vegas-area Democratic politician charged with murder in the slaying of an investigative journalist who had written critical stories about him guilty.
Jurors began deliberating Monday to determine if they agreed with prosecutors' claims that Robert Telles, 47, stabbed veteran investigative journalist Jeff German to death in September 2022, just months after German wrote stories critical of Telles and his workplace conduct, including allegations of an inappropriate romantic relationship with a female coworker.
