A San Francisco jury on Tuesday found a tech consultant guilty of second-degree murder in the stabbing death of a Cash App founder, which carries a sentence of 16 years to life. The case had captured the imagination – and ire – of the tech world.

Nima Momeni was charged with murder in the first degree, but jurors found him guilty of murder in the second degree. Momeni, 40, has been in custody since his arrest in April 2023.
