DA: Suspect in killing of Cash App founder planned attack

SAN FRANCISCO — The tech consultant charged with the killing of Cash App founder Bob Lee planned the attack, drove the victim to a secluded spot and stabbed him over an apparent dispute related to the suspect’s sister, prosecutors said in a court document released Friday. Momeni was represented in court Friday by attorney Robert Canny, who told reporters after the hearing, “The facts of what occurred, or didn’t occur, will come out over time.” On Thursday, San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott announced Momeni’s arrest and said that the two men knew each other but declined to elaborate on their connection. Afterward, they went to Lee’s hotel room, without Khazar Elyassnia, and noticed a conversation in which Momeni was questioning Lee over whether his younger sister “was doing drugs or anything inappropriate,” according to the document. The motion also indicates a text message that Khazar Elyassnia sent Lee to check on him because her brother came “down hard on you” and to thank him for “handling it with class.” Robert Canny did not return an email and phone message seeking comment on the details released by the prosecutor’s office.
