LAS VEGAS — The trial of a Las Vegas-area politician accused of killing an investigative reporter who wrote articles critical of him will take center stage in Nevada on Monday, with jury selection scheduled to start in a case that stunned Sin City and the world of journalism.
In a court filing, Telles maintains he was illegally detained by police before his arrest; officer body-worn camera video of the traffic stop during which he was taken into custody was improperly deleted; and hospital blood tests taken following his arrest and treatment for what he has called self-inflicted slash wounds to his wrists weren’t included as evidence in his case.
