HISTORY OF VIOLENCE

Cash App Founder’s Alleged Killer Previously Cited for Domestic Battery

Police were allegedly called to Nima Momeni’s apartment in August after a woman alleged she had been attacked.

Nima Momeni, who allegedly killed Cash App founder Bob Lee, was accused of domestic violence in August, according to a police report obtained by the San Francisco Chronicle. According to the report, the 38-year-old was cited by police in August for domestic battery after a woman called officers to his Emeryville, California, apartment alleging she had been attacked. Momeni was then released, and prosecutors apparently declined to charge him without providing a reason for the decision. Momeni, who allegedly stabbed Lee with a kitchen knife on April 4, reportedly over a dispute regarding Lee’s relationship with Momeni’s sister, was previously believed to have only nonviolent criminal allegations in his past, including driving under the influence and illegally selling a switchblade.
