Tech Entrepreneur Accused Of Killing Cash App Founder In SF

Knife found at the scene after a man, who was later shot dead by police, killed four members of his extended family in Queens

During the closing arguments of the murder trial of a suspect accused of killing Cash App founder Bob Lee in San Francisco, the defense attorneys presented a surveillance video that they claim shows Lee using a knife to snort cocaine hours before his death. The lawyers representing Nima Momeni, a self-described tech entrepreneur, argued that Lee used the same knife to confront their client over a bad joke, leading to a struggle in which Momeni acted in self-defense, resulting in Lee's fatal stab wounds.

Defense attorney Saam Zangeneh asserted that Lee was using the knife to 'scoop and sniff' cocaine during a bender that culminated in the altercation under the Bay Bridge. Zangeneh emphasized the similarity between the knife seen in the video and the one found outside the Caltrans parking lot, linking it to the case.
