The jury returned a unanimous verdict of first-degree murder for former Clark County public administrator Robert Telles. The jury later sentenced him to life in prison with a chance for parole after 20 years. His lawyer said Telles plans to appeal.
陪審團(tuán)一致裁定前克拉克縣公共行政官羅伯特·特萊斯犯有一級(jí)謀殺罪。陪審團(tuán)后來判處他終身監(jiān)禁，20年后有機(jī)會(huì)假釋。他的律師說，特萊斯計(jì)劃上訴。
Telles was found guilty of murder with use of a deadly weapon against a victim 60 years old or older. The jury unanimously said the murder was willful, deliberate and premeditated, and committed by means of "lying in wait."
特萊斯被判犯有謀殺罪，他使用致命武器對(duì)60歲或以上的受害者實(shí)施謀殺。陪審團(tuán)一致表示，謀殺是蓄意、故意和有預(yù)謀的，并且是通過“埋伏”的方式實(shí)施的。
Over nine days of hearings, the Las Vegas court was told details of the killing of German, a 69-year-old reporter at the Las Vegas Review-Journal. German was found stabbed to death outside his suburban Las Vegas home on Sept. 3, 2022.

"Jeff was killed for doing the kind of work in which he took great pride: His reporting held an elected official accountable for bad behavior and empowered voters to choose someone else for the job."
