Nevada v Robert Telles

Robert Telles, a real estate administrator for Clark County, Nevada, was charged in the stabbing death of Jeff Gurman.  Victim Jeff Gurman was a journalist in Las Vegas, writing about the improprieties of the office which was held by Telles.   A neighbor discovered the body a few days after Gurman was reported missing.  The investigation led to surveillance footage placing Telles in the area. In the footage, Telles was acting suspiciously (wearing a straw hat and hi-vis shirt) leading to his arrest. â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹
