Democrat official arrested in connection with investigative journalist’s stabbing death

Robert “Rob” Telles, Clark County Public Administrator, was taken into custody by the Las Vegas Metropolitan police. They suspected that he was connected with Jeff German’s murder. German was an investigative journalist who did articles on Telles. In a series of tweets, Telles trolled German, joking about the later digging in the trash.

From 8 News Now:

Telles was the focus of recent investigative stories by the longtime investigative journalist.

Police spent much of Wednesday at Telles’ home, which is located near Charleston Boulevard and Hualapai Way. Investigators did not say what they found if anything that led them to arrest Telles.

Investigators had released a photo of an SUV connected to the crime, which sources told the 8 News Now Investigators matched one of Telles’ cars.

Police had released video and images of the suspect on Tuesday and said it appeared he was casing German’s neighborhood.

Officers left the home around 2 p.m. Wednesday and Telles returned shortly after wearing a white paper suit. Sources told 8 News Now that Telles had been meeting with investigators. It was unclear Wednesday why Telles was released and then arrested hours later.

Around 4:15 p.m., an officer knocked on Telles’ door and he did not respond. Police moved reporters away from the house several times afterward.

German, 69, was found stabbed to death outside of his home on Saturday morning, Sept. 3. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said he was killed on Friday morning but not discovered until the next day.

Telles, a Democrat, lost a three-way primary in June. In online posts following the election, Telles appeared to blame German for his election loss.

In a series of tweets, Telles became publicly critical of German’s reports. In one tweet, Telles wrote: “Wife hears rustling in the trash. Her: ‘Honey, is there a wild animal in the trash?’ Me: ‘No, dear. Looks like it’s @JGermanRJ going through our trash for his 4th story on me.’”

Both 8 News Now and the Post Millennial have additional information. The Post Millennial article includes tweets from Andy Ngô and from Rob Telles.

  1. The suspect was a staunch gun control advocate. Apparently, he really meant it. Was it a scary black assault knife?

      1. Our ever-faithful Roh Tin Tin has brought us TAH mutts a real juicy bone with this video.

        Poe is going to begin using “Full Semi-Automatic” as a term to express/describe the surreal idiocy of the left.

        In fact, “Full Semi-Automatic” rather describes our very own resident Lib, Lars, wouldn’t you say? 🤔  😜  🤔

      Typical bully, he wants his victims disarmed and vulnerable, the easier to take advantage of them.

  2. Anybody wanna make book that the D-rat will walk? Maybe the truth being told on him was cutting him like a knife.

    1. Was just going to comment that he must be a low level Democrat. Got to sacrifice one or two on occasion to prove they are law abiding

        (on a not unrelated note, I bet that skank Meghan Markle is celebrating…)

  3. Remember back in 2016 when the Left said that Donald Trump would take our right to free speech, shut down the media, and was a threat to the freedom and lives of reporters? Sure glad all that ugliness is behind us.
