frantically called her brother after taking a cocktail of drugs and alcohol at a drug dealers apartment she went to with Lee before the tech moguls death, it was revealed at the alleged killers trial.
Nima Momeni, 40, has been charged with murdering the Cash App founder under the Bay Bridge in San Francisco on April 4, 2023.
Nimas sister, Khazar Momeni, 38, called her brother and husband begging for help after going with Lee to a drug dealers apartment on April 3, defense attorney Saam Zangeneh said in opening statements.
Khazar did whippets and, after Lee left the apartment, consumed alcohol and the date-rape drug GHB, the attorney said, according to KRON4.
Its a hallucinogenic, it causes you to pass out, Zangeneh said in court.
Khazar Momeni showed up to court wearing a pastel blue silk Valentino dress with a pussy bow neckline, which retails for $5,500

Khazar then got sick and entered a state of hysteria, calling Nima and her husband, the defense attorney said. Her friends said she was wearing nothing but a bikini and crying, according to court documents.
The jury also saw text messages showing that Nima believed Khazar was naked at a drug-fueled party.
Nima then picked Khazar up and drove her back to her apartment.
You are going to see how disheveled Khazar is, she does not look okay, Zangeneh told the jury, referencing surveillance footage.
Lee was at Khazars apartment before leaving with her brother in the early-morning hours before his death.
During Tuesdays court hearing, San Francisco prosecutors showed the jury pictures of the knife Lee was stabbed in the heart with.

Assistant District Attorney Omid Talai argued on Monday that Nimas motive was obvious and described him as an overprotective wannabe tough guy.
Zangeneh pushed back on Tuesday, stating it made no sense for a killer to leave the weapon so close to the crime scene.
Talai responded that Nima must not be an intelligent murder.
Three key witnesses have testified so far. Khazar was expected to on Tuesday, but never took the stand.
She is set to speak on Wednesday. three days into an anticipated two-month trial.

In a harrowing 911 call that was played on Monday - the first day of the trial - Lee can be heard begging for help before his death.
Help, help, help, help, help, Lee said to the dispatcher, who asked his location. Lee frantically continued: Somebody stabbed me. Help me, please.
Please help me. I’m standing on the street. I need to get to the hospital.
He moaned in pain as his voice became fainter.
Help, help, help. Please, please, he begged before sirens are heard in the background and the 911 call ends, as reported by KRON 4.

Tragically, the divorced father-of-two could not be saved and succumbed to his injuries shortly afterwards.
Prosecutors accuse Nima of planning the attack and taking a unique knife from his sisters kitchen before driving Lee to a secluded area and stabbing him three times.
Stabbed through his heart and left to die, Talai said. Our victim was stabbed repeatedly, once in his chest, once in his hip, and literally one puncturing his heart.
Zangeneh told jurors that defense attorneys will show that Nima bore Lee no ill will.

People on these long term cocaine benders are aggressive, they use violence, he said according to KTVU. He alleged Nima was defending himself against Lees attack.
He said wound patterns show that Nima was forced to defend himself after Lee pulled a knife out of his pocket, high on drugs and having slept only six hours over a four-day period of doing cocaine and drinking.
If found guilty, Nima could face 26 years to life in prison.
Nima, who lives in nearby Emeryville, California, has been in custody since his arrest days after Lee died at a San Francisco hospital.
Khazar has a history of problematic behavior linked to substance-abuse issues.
She was arrested on DUI and hit-and-run charges, among others, after crashing her car in San Francisco in November 2023.
Video exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com at the time showed the ultra-glam socialite desperately trying to keep herself out of jail after police arrived at the scene.

Youre not taking me in, right? she asked, trembling when a cop handcuffed her behind her back.
But Im not going anywhere, why are you placing me in handcuffs? she whined. But that means, are you taking me to jail?
A witness to the exchange told DailyMail.com that Khazar appeared to be as high as hell.
Bystander footage also shows what appeared to be a large whippets canister in plain view alongside Khazars designer handbag on the drivers seat.
On Tuesday, she showed up to court wearing a pastel blue silk Valentino dress with a pussy bow neckline, which retails for $5,500.
