The Assassination of Jeff German

A Las Vegas journalist is stabbed to death while investigating claims a boss was toxic. Did his reporting make him a target? "48 Hours" correspondent Peter Van Sant reports. [CASE UPDATE: On Oct. 16, 2024, public administrator Robert Telles was sentenced to serve at least 28 years in Nevada state prison for killing investigative journalist Jeff German. A judge invoked sentencing enhancements for elements including use of a deadly weapon, lying in wait and the age of the reporter to add eight years to the minimum 20-year sentence that a jury set in August after finding Telles guilty of murder.]
