This morning's arrivals - Nima Momeni's defense team, followed by his mom, Bob Lee's dad and brother and Bo Mohazzabi (Lee's close friend, who will take the stand for part 2 of cross examination this morning).

Yesterday, Nima Momeni's defense team hammered Bo Mohazzabi on cross examination. Prosecutors objected early in, calling Saam Zangeneh argumentative. Zangeneh snapped back, "It's cross," eliciting a laugh from the audience. Oliver Lee, Bob's brother responding this morning -
Bo has a tech startup and was showing Lee an idea he was working on the day before Lee was killed. Bo witnessed a call from Nima Momeni asking what had happened with his sister. "How about the girls naked, what was that about," Bo recalled him saying.
Bo said Momeni sounded like he was both an "over protective brother" and a man who was playing a role when he interogated Lee.
When prosecutors initially released information about what happened the night before Lee's killing, Bo's eye witness testimony was key, as he was the only person they talked to who witnessed Momeni's call with Lee, which they have said signalled his potential motive.

One of those calls was to Jeremy Boivin, which Momeni's attorney is now asking Bo about. Another was to a woman named Emily. At about 9 p.m. or so Lee also tried to called Khazar on FaceTime too, which was just after Nima Momeni had called Lee.
After Momeni's initial call, Lee also texted with Momeni, says his attorney. Lee also made a FaceTime call to Momeni, says his attorney. Bo responds that he does not recall the specifics of everyone Lee talked to or texted. Bo only remembers the one call Momeni made to Lee.

So bizzare..... Don't get derailed. KM did send text to BobL April 4, 2023....It stated, “Just wanted to make sure your doing ok. Cause i know nima came wayyyyyy down hard on you. And thank you for being such a classy man handling it with class.”Much of today's proceeding in the murder trial of Nima Momeni has centered on Bob Lee's friend, who spent much of the day with him before he was stabbed to death. Many of those details can be found here:
Defense Puts Alleged Drug Dealer at Center of Cash App Founder Murder Case
Suspect Nima Momeni allegedly threatened another man for giving his sister drugs before Lee's death.sfstandard.com
Most or the details in the hours that led up to Bob Lee’s killing have been reported. But today in court we learned few new details: When Nima Momeni interrogated Lee about why he’d found his sister Khazar half naked at Lee’s alleged drug dealer, Khazar was in the car.

*** you can read the text in multiple main stream articles. The one I was going to link has some less than flattering words (actually quite hostile IMO) ...so won't post.

Wish California had more transparency in court rooms ala Florida. I would love to see live coverage of Attorney Za conducting his cross of Bo.
I believe one has to log in to X to get more info, but this is what came up on a public search.

Cross of Bo Mohazzabi heating up w/ Momeni defense attorney Saam Zangeneh ?'ing him about calls he doesn't remember Bob making night of murder. Bo: "The only call I recall..." Zangeneh: "The one that helps the prosecution's case." Zangeneh scolded by judge & quickly apologizing.
In the third day of the trial of Nima Momeni for the alleged killing of Cash App exec Bob Lee, Lee's close friend took the stand.He said Momeni's view of a naked, drug-fueled encounter between Lee & Momeni's sister never happened.

A large contingent of family and friends of victim Bob Lee are in the gallery as are media and Momeni's mother.

Lee's father and brother are here as well as his ex wife.

Momeni's lead attorney, Saam Zangeneh, is asking Bo questions today.
1:07 PM · Oct 17, 2024
Bo, who just read the transcript, told Dittmer that he and Lee went to Boivin's where they had some drinks. Bo said did not explain his history with Khazar to police, Momeni's sister, but Zangeneh is alluding to the nature of that relationship without saying outright its nature.
1:29 PM · Oct 17, 2024
"You failed to mention during that interview that you had texted, that you had been talking, in essence, it sounded, like you two were dating for a few months," said Momeni's attorney to Bo, who denied that they had dated.
1:30 PM · Oct 17, 2024
Again, Momeni's attorney is now asking if Boivin brought out a bowl of white powder when Bo and Lee were at his house with Khazar.
1:31 PM · Oct 17, 2024
When Lee and Bo left Boivin's, Lee asked Khazar if she wanted to come along and she said she would stay, said Bo. When Lee and Bo left Boivin's, Bo said Lee tried to call her but Khazar blocked him. Did you tell police "Khazar, she likes to play games," said Momeni's attorney.
1:35 PM · Oct 17, 2024
The unspoken hope in the room is that key player in the case, Khazar Momeni, will testify. She has yet to be seen the halls of the court today. But her attorney has been seen.
2:08 PM · Oct 17, 2024
Lee then asked Bo to use his phone to call Khazar and got through to her, says Momeni's attorney. Bo says he does not recall.

"I said, I couldn't tell if they were escorts or not," says Bo.
2:44 PM · Oct 17, 2024
"I don't know if these were working girls or not," he said, reading the transcript of his police interview. "You believe your friend Bob might have called hookers," asks Momeni's attorney rhetorically.
2:45 PM · Oct 17, 2024
Now Momeni's attorney is asking if Bo knew when Momeni called Lee that his sister had been drugged. "Did you know Jeremy Boivin had given two girls GHB" and one "women had woken up crying asking for help?" asks Momeni's attorney of Bo, who says he did not know that had happened
2:48 PM · Oct 17, 2024
Momeni's attorney is now turning to his client's call to Lee about what happened to his sister, Khazar. "He did seem agitated, he did seem as if he was playing a character. He was excited," said Bo, who overheard the call.
2:50 PM · Oct 17, 2024
Khazar had been found drugged at Boivin's home. Bo refers to Boivin as "the Dude." Police asked Bo if Boivin had done anything inappropriate to Khazar.
2:53 PM · Oct 17, 2024
"It was very odd that he was asking Bob this question," said Bo about Momeni calling Bob about what had happened at Boivin's. After the call Bob told Bo, Nima is harmless, he's just overprotective.
2:56 PM · Oct 17, 2024
After Bob left Bo's Khazar texted him. It was unclear who it was meant for. "Was she asking for drugs," asks Momeni's attorney. Bo: "I got a text from Khazar about coming over and brining Whip-its" and that she could Venmo him.

I can't imagine taking a lunch break after this testimony. It all sounds so intense; even the court room summary is giving insight (or incite?) as to what might have been building up in NM's mind. Alas, it doesn't really help NM's claim of self defense. As tragic as this is, SZ is painting the picture of a brother bent on revenge....and revenge is premeditated murder. I don't think SZ intends it to go in that direction and yet instead of illiciting sympathy from the jury, it may only solidify premeditation.
@arielilane Thank you for the continued updates...

Bob Lee's friend Borzoyeh Mohazzabi has been on the stand all day, and is again testifying about the hours he spent with Lee on April 3, 2023.
Mr. Mohazzabi, aka Bo, was a key witness to the phone call Nima Momeni made to Lee hours before the slaying.

Bo has already testified about the afternoon and evening he spent with Lee before Lee's death. Both men were drinking and briefly spent time with Momeni's sister, Khazar Momeni, who the DA has made the center of the case.
Prosecutors have alleged that Momeni killed Lee over events involving his sister that occurred at the home of Lee's purported drug dealer's.
