Nima Momeni Found Guilty in Death of Cash App Founder Bob Lee

[army judge]

A San Francisco jury on Tuesday found a tech consultant guilty of second-degree murder in the stabbing death of Cash App founder Bob Lee.

Jurors took seven days to deliver their verdict against Nima Momeni in the April 4, 2023, death of Lee, a beloved tech mogul who was found staggering on a deserted downtown street, dripping a trail of blood and calling for help. Lee, 43, later died at a hospital.

Prosecutors said Momeni planned the attack on Lee, driving him to an isolated spot under the Bay Bridge and stabbing him three times with a knife he took from his sister's kitchen. 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.

But Momeni testified on the stand that Lee was the one who attacked him with a knife, angry after the tech consultant chided him about spending more time with his family instead of searching for a strip club that night. 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.

Jurors received the case, which started Oct. 14, on Dec. 4.

Momeni was charged with murder in the first degree, but jurors could have found him guilty of murder in the second degree or manslaughter.

A conviction of murder in the second degree carries a sentence of 16 years to life in this case.

Momeni, 40, has been in custody since his arrest in April 2023.

In a 2023 press release announcing a murder charge against Momeni, the office of District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said he faced 26 years to life in prison if convicted.

Lee had created mobile payment service Cash App and was the chief product officer of the cryptocurrency MobileCoin when he died. He had moved to Miami from the San Francisco Bay Area, where his ex-wife Krista Lee lives with their two children.

All I can say is that country has far too many people ready to go Rambo and attack other people over mostly small stuff. His anger wasn't focused on the right person. While it would still be a crime I can better understand him attacking the guy who actually harmed his sister.

It isn't just jackballs and maniacs going nuclear in the USA, mate.

This obsession with violence occurs everyday all over Planet Earth. Violence has been mankind's plague, from Cain's slaughter of his brother Abel, its never slowed or been quelled.

Many humans have an inexplicable base desire to perpetrate violence upon others of their kind. Why? Take Looney Tunes Luigi Mangione for example. It defies logic, ryhme, or reason. Frankly, I avoid humans with great regularity. Why? To ensure some nutty jackball doesn't shorten my intended longevity. Only YOU can save or extend your longevity. Don't expect your neighbors, friends, or pals to assist you in that endeavor.

And even at that, the "fates worse than death", some of them legal, that might have been possible.

Be careful, before you take their laws into your greasy paws, THINK.

Will your actions be absolved IF the authoritays decide to prosecute you?????

Slow your roll, shero/hero, THINK about the outcome.

Daniel Penny got lucky, despite his actions, a jury allowed him to walk away, a free human.

Your mileage might vary!!!!
