Prosecutor Omid Talai argued that Momeni should be denied bail because the stabbing was “premeditated.” “Importantly, the handle of that knife shows that Bob Lee’s DNA was not on that handle,” Talai said, arguing the attack was not self-defense. Instead, he continued, an analysis found Lee’s DNA as all over the blood-soaked blade.
Speaking after the hearing, Canny said she would argue that what happened was a combination of accident and self-defense, and was not premeditated.Canny criticized the San Francisco Police Department, saying they had failed to interview Momeni,in the nine days following the crime, despite knowing who was involved hours after the crime.San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins pushed back on Canny’s comments.
Momeni is accused of attacking Lee following an argument over Lee’s involvement with his sister, according to prosecutors, but they have not revealed much about the connection between the two men.this week he was part of an underground party scene and had been casually sleeping with Momeni’s young sister Khazar, the glamorous wife of a prominent San Francisco plastic surgeon. Three years earlier, friends say, Lee also dated a woman who had formerly dated Momeni.
At a brief court appearance two weeks ago, Canny commented on Lee’s autopsy results, saying he was like a “Walgreens of recreational drugs” at the time of his death. The autopsy report showed Lee had cocaine and ketamine in his system at the time of his death on April 4.
