NV - Jeff German, 69, investigative reporter, stabbed to death, Las Vegas, Sept 2022 *arrest*

[Marysmith]

No one realized he wasn’t a harmless narcissist until he murdered this poor journalist. It’s hard to understand how angry and entitled he was to actually murder a stranger. Moo

Totally. Like off the rails entitled! It’s like the murder of Steven Cozzi last week - the perps take no responsibility for their own poor behaviour leading to consequences. Just unreal and I fear we are raising more and more all the time. :/

Telles claims he wants to avoid ‘confrontation’ over newspaper’s rights

Telles is accused of murdering Las Vegas-Review Journal investigative reporter Jeff German.

www.reviewjournal.com

Telles and the Review-Journal may be close to a resolution on their separate case over what information may be released to Telles for his own look into alleged police misconduct in handling his criminal case.

The Review-Journal does not want German’s device information released to Telles, as it may contain information about German’s confidential sources. Telles, in an interview, states that he does not necessarily need the information from German’s devices for his purposes at this point.
