LAS VEGAS — A judge on Tuesday ordered former Clark County Public Administrator Robert Telles to remain in custody without bail, after his attorney argued that he should be granted a $100,000 bail.
Telles, 45, is accused of killing Las Vegas Review-Journal investigative reporter Jeff German, who had reported on Telles and his role as an elected official. Telles has been held in the Clark County Detention Center without bail since his arrest.
Last week, Telles’ public defender filed a motion asking for a judge to either release him on his own recognizance or set his bail at $100,000. Prosecutors filed an opposition on Thursday, arguing that the judge should not grant Telles bail.
