But there are some key parallels, too.
They're freely zipping between Bob Lee's murder and unrelated topics, like Walgreens and parking tickets.
And they also speculate quite openly.
This is David Sachs, an early PayPal executive.
He's probably the most prominent among the all-in guys.
I think we suspect, and I would bet dollars to dimes, that the story is very similar to a case we had in L.A.
But this idea of just releasing these people onto the street, I just think is an outrageous abdication of responsibility by our elected officials.
To be clear, there was nothing tying Bob Lee's death to the death of Brianna Kupfer in L.A.
At this point, there was no suspect publicly identified and no evidence linking Bob's murder to homelessness or mental illness.
It was all speculation.
I should mention, in the years since, David Sachs' political involvement has only deepened.
But crime in San Francisco was one of the first examples of Sachs prominently wading into a political fight.
David Sachs turned down my request for an interview.
Jason Calacanis and David Friedberg did not respond.
Meanwhile, amidst the speculation, time ticked on.
One week after Bob's death, Crystal Lee, Bob's former wife, was starting to pick up the pieces.
I headed out and had to fly to Miami to do something I wished in my life I'd never have to do.
Because at this time, there was no suspect.
However, some new information had leaked to the press, including security recordings.
Then, nine days after the murder... The breaking news right now, it seems there might have been an arrest.
