According to a new Wall Street Journal report, Cash App founder Bob Lee, who was stabbed to death last month, was having an affair with the sister of his alleged attacker, Nima Momeni.
According to Lee’s friends, Lee and Khazar Momeni, the wife of a well-known San Francisco plastic surgeon, were members of the same underground party circuit known as “The Lifestyle” and were casually sleeping together.
The inventor of a cash app was having an affair with his alleged killer’s married sister.
According to court filings, Nima, a 38-year-old software consultant who had known Lee for ten years, questioned Lee about his sister before to the stabbing.
Lee and Khazar were apparently drinking with a group of friends at a home party in San Francisco before the confrontation, which occurred when Nima arrived to pick up Khazar. According to prosecution documents, Nima questioned Lee if Khazar “was doing drugs [or] anything inappropriate” before arguing with the Cash App creator.
According to witnesses, Lee informed Nima that his sister had not used drugs and that “nothing inappropriate had happened.” Lee’s system included narcotics, including ketamine and cocaine, according to a toxicology study.
Later that evening, Nima and Lee arrived at Khazar’s flat separately before departing together at 2:04 a.m. in Nima’s white BMW Z4.
According to prosecutors, Nima drove Lee to a “dark and secluded” San Francisco street corner and stabbed him in a “planned and deliberate attack.”

“Just wanted to make sure your doing ok Cause [I] know nima came wayyyyyyyy down hard on you,” Khazar texted Lee after the encounter, according to court filings. “Thank you for being such a gentleman in dealing with it. I adore you selfish jerks.”
According to Journal sources, both Lee and Khazar were members of “The Lifestyle,” a San Francisco tech community subculture that included recreational drug usage and casual sex. Prosecutors stated in court filings that Khazar was married, “but the relationship had possibly been in jeopardy.”
Gift Kerat, a friend of Lee’s who spent a lot of time with him during the pandemic, told the Journal that Lee had multiple girlfriends during this time but “was respectful of them.”
