Tech community criticizes SF official over Bob Lee murder investigation
San Francisco Police Commissioner Kevin Benedicto expressed concern about the politicization of the stabbing death of Bob Lee, which was exploited by some members of the tech and venture capital communities to push a political agenda. Benedicto urged people to be patient and let the investigation run its course, rather than drawing false conclusions and accusing officials of incompetence. The suspect in Lee's killing was identified as Nima Momeni, an Emeryville-based tech entrepreneur who knew Lee personally. Benedicto hopes this incident will encourage more people to work on productive solutions for the long-term well-being of San Francisco.
