A story that a slain reporter had left unfinished was published in the Las Vegas Review-Journal and The Washington Post last week.

Jeff German, an investigative reporter at the Review-Journal with a four-decade career, was stabbed to death in September. Robert Telles — a local elected official who German had reported on — was arrested and charged with his murder.

Soon after his death, The Washington Post reached out to the Review-Journal asking if there was anything they could do to help.

German's editor told the Post, "There was this story idea he had. What if you took it on?" Post reporter Lizzie Johnson told NPR.
