Jeff German was an investigative reporter in Las Vegas for four decades — taking on everyone from casino bosses to powerful politicians to the mob. Then he was stabbed to death outside his home
The public administrator’s office — which secures property of the deceased while a search for a family or executor is done and administers estates when families are unable to — has a history that includes administrator abuses. Telles was elected in 2018 as a reformer, and was endorsed by his predecessor, Jerry Cahill. Less than four years later, Cahill supported his opponent, office veteran Rita Page Reid.
Telles, a married father of three, probate lawyer, local Rotary Club member, and longtime member of the Democratic Party, had been incensed online for days. “Does the @LVRJ know that @JGermanRJ may be doing double duty on their dime?”, apparently alleging German had mixed motivations.
“Afterward, Jeff and I sat at his desk and the two of us, from our notes, wrote the article and took a double byline,” Scott said. “We were first out with the story, which was common for Jeff. He loved beating the competition. That was always his goal, and to get the facts right. … When I heard about his murder, the first thing I thought was he must have ticked off someone with his story coverage. He was fearless and didn’t back down from anyone.
On Tuesday, a photo of the suspect’s Denali was shown to the public, and within hours signs pointed to the family vehicle registered in Telles’ wife’s name.
