Nima Momeni was convicted of second-degree murder for the stabbing death of Cash App founder Bob Lee, concluding a significant and closely watched trial.
Oliver Lee expressed relief over the verdict, stating, 'We are happy that Nima Momeni will not be on the streets...The verdict of Murder-2 will put him away for a long time.'
Defense attorney Tony Brass remarked on the day's pain and expressed disappointment over the verdict, indicating that 'this is not the end of this journey,' suggesting potential future appeal.
Despite Momeni's self-defense claims, jurors were not convinced, as the prosecution could not establish premeditated murder, leading to a lesser second-degree murder conviction.
