A Las Vegas public official accused of fatally stabbing investigative reporter Jeff German was denied bail Thursday after law enforcement officials said they found DNA evidence connecting him to the murder.
Clark County Public Administrator Robert Telles appeared in front of a judge who ruled the 45-year-old remain in Clark County Detention Center until his next hearing on September 13, according to a CBS affiliate 8NewsNow.
Telles was arrested Wednesday after a two-hour standoff with Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, who found evidence that the public official allegedly stabbed German during a confrontation at the Las Vegas Review-Journal reporter’s home.
The veteran reporter had written a series of investigative pieces detailing misconduct, including Telles’ alleged affair with his 45-year-old staffer Roberta Lee-Kennett.
During the bail hearing in Las Vegas Justice Court, Judge Elana Lee Graham said German, 69, had several defensive wounds as he fought for his life.
