Nima Momeni Guilty of Bob Lee's Murder

News summary

Nima Momeni was found guilty of second-degree murder for the fatal stabbing of Cash App founder Bob Lee in April 2023. The trial, which lasted over two months, concluded with the jury rejecting Momeni's self-defense claim, deciding instead that he acted out of anger over Lee's relationship with Momeni's sister and their drug use. Prosecutors argued that Momeni lured Lee to a secluded area under the Bay Bridge and stabbed him three times with a knife from his sister's kitchen. The crime initially led to speculation about random violence in San Francisco but was later attributed to a personal dispute. Lee's family accused Momeni's family of attempting to cover up the crime, hinting at potential further legal actions. Momeni faces a sentence of 16 years to life in prison.
