Las Vegas Dem accused of killing journalist said in 2020 arrest wife acted like he was going to 'kill' her
In 2020 arrest video, Robert Telles says his wife is 'acting like' he is 'going to f---ing kill her'
Clark County, Nevada, Public Administrator Robert Telles, who was charged last week in connection with the Aug. 3 murder of an investigative journalist, can be heard saying his wife acted like he was "going to kill her" during a 2020 arrest caught on police body camera footage.

Las Vegas police arrested Telles, 45, after they released photos of the suspect in journalist Robert German's killing and the suspect's vehicle, which matched a description of the vehicle Telles was seen driving before German's death.

In the video captured during his March 1, 2020, arrest over a domestic incident in which he allegedly choked his wife, a drunken Telles repeatedly says he loves his wife and family and would never hurt them, according to FOX5 Las Vegas.

At one point, however, he says his wife was "acting like" he was "going to f---ing kill her."
