Robert Telles Hurts His Own Defense In LV Murder Trial

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis discusses the perplexing testimony of Robert Telles, who is on trial for the murder of journalist Jeff German. Telles' defense strategy is marked by an unusual narrative approach, where he equates his personal opinions with expert testimony, a tactic that Faddis finds bizarre and potentially damaging to his case. Telles attempts to downplay incriminating evidence, including a finger injury that aligns with the timeline of the murder, by offering implausible explanations such as claiming the injury occurred while preparing food. Faddis highlights the arrogance in Telles' testimony, noting that his behavior on the stand, including a strange emphasis on irrelevant details like washing his cars, may alienate the jury. Faddis also points out the strained relationship between Telles and his legal representation, suggesting that Telles' insistence on controlling the narrative might backfire in a case already loaded with damning evidence.
