You nailed it. Second degree murder.The jury found Nima Momeni guilty of 2nd degree murder.
Yes, it will give him more time to serve. Sentencing date not set yet.You nailed it. Second degree murder.
Apparently they also found NM guilty of having a modifier to the charge - the use of a dangerous weapon, if I understood the reporter correctly. I assume that will also impact the sentencing.
I don't remember ever hearing a defendant speak after he or she has been found guilty in court. Usually they are just led out of the court room, and they just have time to glance back at their family or other supporter.DA just stated NM is eligible for 16 yrs to life.
NM's is speaking right now, says it was not a fair verdict.
Of course they will appeal the verdict, NM's brother in law has deep pockets and they will continue to rely on him for money and it seems he is willing to continue to fund the Momeni family lifestyles - regardless of what really took place that night.@MelanieWoodrow
Nima Momeni’s mom says her son will appeal today’s verdict. She spoke with him last night and said he is strong and gives her hope.

I corrected my initial post. It was NM's mother speaking.I don't remember ever hearing a defendant speak after he or she has been found guilty in court. Usually they are just led out of the court room, and they just have time to glance back at their family or other supporter.
I saw this on NBC Bay Area, and Bob Lee's brother Oliver Lee is an outstanding man. Class act. mooThe family of Bob Lee reacts after Nima Momeni was convicted of second degree murder in the 2023 killing of the Cash App founder in San Francisco.

But what about the fact that NM had a knife with him that was taken from his sister's kitchen? I would think that a jury would have had to consider the possibility of premeditation? And if they ruled that out, how did they make sense of NM having that knife with him, I wonder.Second degree the right verdict, there was no plot, no plan, was a heat of the moment killing, he deserves a long prison stretch though as a life got taken
Was Sam Z still in San Fran or already on plane to Florida? Bob Lee's brother has been so level headed in all his statements to the press. He is a class act!
PS @arielilane thank you for keeping us up to date!
I still wonder what happened to the items in his car? why they tried to get rid of/erase phone info? why Dr. D was never called to give info on brother-in-law's state of mind after he received call from KM? Anger, worry, confused. asking for medical advice etc???
He knew he was going to have a confrontation/serious argument with the victim and took it along for self defence if attacked is my guessBut what about the fact that NM had a knife with him that was taken from his sister's kitchen? I would think that a jury would have had to consider the possibility of premeditation? And if they ruled that out, how did they make sense of NM having that knife with him, I wonder.
