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.

Las Vegas jurors deliberated for about four hours Monday before breaking for the evening. The panel of seven women and five men deliberated for about six hours on Tuesday following a two-week trial. Attorneys gave closing arguments on Monday morning.

Uber narcissist Robert Telles (Democrat politician) found guilty of premeditated murder of reporter Jeff German in the doorway of his home in Las Vegas.

Remember watching a fairly recent episode of “48 Hours” on CBS about this.

When is the execution?

including allegations of an inappropriate romantic relationship with a female coworker.

I thought that would be a resume enhancer for a democrat.

What was the journalist guilty of?

Remember when you were in school and were learning about grammar and so you would learn not do to things such as write confusing but technically accurate by grammar rules run-on sentences with no commas or punctuation?

He should have gotten the trial moved to DC.

A Democrat murdering a reporter who exposed his corruption? A DC jury would have let him walk.

[Boomer]

Easy verdict. Hang him high.

obama murdered his chef. He had facial and hand injuries the same time the chef “drowned”.

[Fledermaus]

And when will they let him go? Next week?

[Rockingham]

For many politicians, their public image and position are life itself. The journalist offended by exposing the Dem official as a scoundrel.

[Rdct29]

This idiot took the stand and questioned himself. He looked like an idiot. The look on his lawyers face was priceless. Telles thinks he's smart but he is really a dumb ass. I bet he cried like a baby and shook his head after he heard the verdict.

[Steely Tom]

Yeah, he originally was going to be pro se. I guess that plan got revised.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Obama wanted a little "brown eye" from his chef. When the chef refused, Obama killed him in a cocaine fueled rage.

There are 2 kinds of demonrats.

Those who are guilty and have been charged and convicted.

Those who have not yet been charged and convicted.

[Uncle Lonny]

Saw this story on ABC nightly news. No mention that the convicted murderer was a Democrat. He was only described as a ‘politician”

“Liberalism” has killed journalism.

According to the story he got life in prison but with the possibility of parole after he serves 20 years. This was clearly a case where the death penalty would have been justified.
