Former Clark County Public Administrator Robert Telles is set to stand trial next week, nearly two years after he was arrested and accused of killing Las Vegas Review-Journal investigative reporter Jeff German.
District Judge Michelle Leavitt scheduled the trial to begin with jury selection at 1 p.m. on Monday. Jury selection could last multiple days, and the entire trial is expected to take at least two weeks, attorneys said during a court hearing on Wednesday.
Telles is accused of killing German in September 2022 over articles the journalist had written about Telles’ conduct as a public official. Telles has pleaded not guilty to a murder charge, and has maintained he was framed for the killing.
