Where does it indicate the identity of the decedent?
- madrox 3y agoIt doesn't, but the poster is a reputable account. I have to assume this is correct.

- rdl 3y agoIt was first reported here on Twitter (https://twitter.com/lucy_guo/status/1643451123230031872 https://twitter.com/lucy_guo/status/1643451123230031872) -- I'm friends with a bunch of people at MobileCoin where he was working and unfortunately it is true. I only met Bob once but he was a great man. (Trying to just be sad about his loss and not angry at what San Francisco has become, but it's hard.)
- achow 3y agoTragic. From tweets it appears that he had moved to Miami, came back to SF on a work trip for a day - and this happened.
- Atlas22 3y agoThat's even more depressing, can't even visit for a day without risking life (assuming it wasn't targeted). May he rest in peace.
- NickSingh 3y agoSuper sad, and I'm assuming that moving from SF to Miami was in part due to crime issue.
- spoonjim 3y agoThat wouldn’t make sense, Miami’s homicide rate is much higher than San Francisco’s.
- kortilla 3y agoHomicide rates aren’t relevant to a regular person. What matters is the probability of being a victim of a violent crime or a homicide when you weren’t involved in a criminal organization or weren’t already committing a crime. Many cities with high homicide rates have them specifically because of gang activities and they don’t have any relevance to regular citizens. Additionally, gun friendly states with “stand your ground” laws will have higher homicide rates just from self defense in robberies. Tldr; homicide rate is meaningless to how safe you are as a bystander.
- azinman2 3y agoAnd given there are like 50 a year in a population of 800k+, it’s pretty unlikely.
- kortilla 3y agoThat’s still a per capita rate, which is irrelevant.
- spoonjim 3y ago“Stand your ground” laws don’t just increase the rate of homicides, they increase the rate of murder. Turns out that thugs are better at killing than civilians
- Klonoar 3y agoYeah, definitely not for literally any other possible reason, like say... escaping California's tax code. There was a notable SF->Miami exodus during COVID, we don't need to attribute reasoning we don't know here.
- wutbrodo 3y agoSFGate reports that he lives in Mill Valley, though they may be wrong https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/mill-valley-man-killed-sf-stabbing-17878809.php https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/mill-valley-man-kille...

- DangitBobby 3y agoThe tweet has been deleted, unfortunately.
- DantesKite 3y agoJake Shields says that it was someone reputable in the tech industry and a close friend of his who was killed. And that the family doesn't want to reveal the name yet.[1][2] Additionally, if you search through Jake Shield's Twitter feed, you'll find instances where Bob Lee talked to him.
