About this episode

The Robert Telles story involves a shocking case of the unaliving of a journalist. Telles, a Clark County Public Administrator in Las Vegas, was arrested in September 2022 for the death of Jeff German, a veteran investigative reporter for the Las Vegas Review-Journal. German had written a series of articles exposing misconduct and a toxic workplace environment in Telles’s office, which likely contributed to Telles losing re-election.
