Technology executive Bob Lee’s accused killer told a jury he acted in self defence after Lee tried to attack him with a knife on a San Francisco street a year and a half ago, saying “he went crazy on me” after losing his temper.

Nima Momeni, defending himself at his murder trial, testified Nov 13 that during a late night of socialising in April 2023, Lee became enraged, pulled a knife out of his jacket pocket and took a swing, before Momeni grabbed his arm and redirected the blade at his upper chest.
