刺杀Cash App创始人Bob Lee的科技顾问被判16年至终身监禁，法官先驳回重审请求
2026年11月10日，加州旧金山高等法院法官 Alexandra Gordon 判处科技顾问 Nima Momeni 16年至终身监禁：他于2023年4月在旧金山刺杀 Cash App 创始人 Bob Lee，2024年12月被陪审团裁定二级谋杀罪名成立。宣判前，法官驳回了 Momeni 提出的重审请求；其律师表示将提起上诉。
刑期构成为：二级谋杀罪15年至终身监禁，另因武器加重情节加刑1年，并计入其已被羁押的时间，另须缴纳赔偿与费用。Momeni 现年42岁，住在加州 Emeryville，案发后9天被捕，此后一直被羁押。
案件发生在2023年4月4日凌晨。Bob Lee 时年43岁，在旧金山 Rincon Hill 社区海湾大桥附近身中数刀，被发现倒在一处街道旁，送医后不治。旧金山地方检察官办公室在审判中指控，Momeni 因其妹妹与 Lee 之间的一场纠纷，在车内与 Lee 对峙后持刀行凶；辩方则称 Momeni 是出于自卫。陪审团最终裁定二级谋杀，未采纳检方主张的一级谋杀（预谋）指控，也未接受辩方的自卫说法。
Bob Lee 是支付应用 Cash App 的创始人，生前在科技界有广泛影响。他的遇害在2023年一度引发全美对旧金山市中心治安的讨论，案件审理期间也出现过与案情无关的不实信息。量刑听证会上，Lee 的家人到庭陈述，包括他18岁的女儿 Scout。
随着量刑完成，这起历时三年多的案件在初审阶段告一段落，案件下一步将进入上诉程序。
Tech Consultant Sentenced to 16 Years to Life for the Stabbing Death of Cash App Founder Bob Lee
On November 10, 2026, San Francisco Superior Court Judge Alexandra Gordon sentenced technology consultant Nima Momeni to 16 years to life in prison for the April 2023 stabbing death of Cash App founder Bob Lee in San Francisco. A jury had convicted Momeni of second-degree murder in December 2024. Before imposing the sentence, the judge rejected Momeni's request for a new trial; his attorneys said they plan to appeal.
The sentence consists of 15 years to life for second-degree murder plus an additional year for a weapons enhancement, with credit for time served, along with restitution and fees. Momeni, 42, of Emeryville, California, was arrested nine days after the killing and has remained in custody since.
Lee, 43, was found with multiple stab wounds on a downtown San Francisco street in the Rincon Hill neighborhood, near the base of the Bay Bridge, in the early hours of April 4, 2023, and died at a hospital. Prosecutors said Momeni confronted Lee over a dispute involving Momeni's younger sister and stabbed him; the defense claimed self-defense. The jury convicted Momeni of second-degree murder, rejecting both the prosecution's first-degree murder theory and the self-defense claim.
Bob Lee founded the Cash App payment service and was a widely known figure in the technology industry. His killing in 2023 fueled a national debate about public safety in downtown San Francisco and drew misinformation unrelated to the facts of the case. Members of Lee's family, including his 18-year-old daughter Scout, addressed the court at the sentencing hearing.
With sentencing complete, the trial phase of the case, which began more than three years ago, has concluded; the case now moves to the appellate stage.
