A San Francisco jury found Nima Momeni, a tech consultant , guilty of second-degree murder in the stabbing death of Cash App founder Bob Lee . Lee was found staggering on a deserted downtown street in April 2023, calling for help. He later died at a hospital. Prosecutors said Momeni drove Lee to an isolated spot under the Bay Bridge and stabbed him three times.
They say Momeni was angry with Lee for introducing his younger sister to a drug dealer she says gave her GHB and other drugs and then sexually assaulted her. Momeni testified that Lee attacked him first, angry after Momeni chided him about spending more time with his family instead of searching for a strip club. Momeni, who studies martial arts, claimed self-defense and said he didn't realize he had fatally wounded Lee or that Lee was even hurt. Momeni faces 26 years to life in prison if convicted
