Defense makes closing argument in murder trial of Cash App founder Bob Lee

By JANIE HAR SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Defense attorneys for a tech consultant charged in the stabbing death of Cash App founder Bob Lee made their final arguments Tuesday before the high-profile murder case goes to jurors. Prosecutors, who delivered their closing Monday, say Nima Momeni planned the April, 2023, attack after hearing that the tech mogul had introduced his younger sister to a drug dealer who she says gave her GHB and other drugs and then sexually assaulted her at his apartment. Momeni lured Lee to an isolated spot by the Bay Bridge, stabbed him three times with a knife from his sister’s kitchen set and pealed away in his car, they say. But defense attorney Saam Zangeneh said Tuesday that prosecutors have not presented the whole truth to jurors, omitting details and failing to investigate avenues that would not help their cause. “The government’s whole case rests on motive,” he said.
