A county official was the target of a search warrant on Wednesday morning in connection with the death of a slain journalist he had previously accused of conducting a “smear” campaign against him, authorities say.
These details emerged Wednesday morning, after colleagues of the slain Jeff German, an investigative reporter at the Las Vegas Review-Journal, witnessed cops arrive at the home of Clark County Public Administrator Robert Telles.
Detectives at the scene confirmed the search was related to the slaying of German, the Review-Journal reported. Telles, a 45-year-old Democrat who oversees the securing of estates of people who’ve died, has not been arrested or charged with any crime.
