Send us a text
Larry Henry, senior reporter at Gambling.com and administrator for the Las
Vegas Mafia History and Mob Summit Facebook group pages, talks from
the heart about the murder of his friend Jeff German, an investigative
reporter with the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
We begin the show about the global expansion of the sports betting world
and the membership numbers of the two Facebook pages: Las Vegas
Mafia History and Mob Summit. See show notes for links to join.
How Jeff and Larry met and became friends. Larry describes who Jeff was,
his deep respect for him, how he got to Las Vegas as he was a Wisconsin
native. Jeff’s his ability to dig up stores because people trusted him that he
would not reveal his sources. We hear clips from Jeff himself in relation to
this.
The big stories Jeff reported on that include the 1980 MGM Grand Fire,
Route 91 Harvest Festival shooting and writing a book on the death of Ted
Binion. Jeff himself tells two stories about being hit in the mouth by a
suspected Mob and sending Tony Spilotro a drink at a dive bar in Las
Vegas.
National story when Jeff was murdered after investigating a Clark County
Public Administrator Robert Telles, who is charged with murder in Jeff’s
death and is being held without bail. Jeff wrote about alleged
mismanagement, unlawful conduct, and bullying in the public
administrator’s office. Larry tells what he knows to date of the case which is
set for trial in November of 2023.
Special Thank you and credit for the Jeff German clips:
