>> what the people of san francisco have asked for time and time again as it relates to crime in our city has been accountability. >> san francisco's da responds after an arrest in the high-profile killing of a tech executive. the suspect expected to face the judge this morning. new details emerging about the victim bob lee and his ties to the accused killer. a 21-year-old air national guard member accused of leaking highly classified documents now in jail. how did it take months to find him? this is "today in the bay." good morning to you on this friday. thanks for watching. i'm marcus washington. >> and i'm laura garcia. we're happy it's friday around here. and the weather is cooperating as well. >> it's going to be a great weekend. nice sunshine. comfortable temperatures. let me get you out the door with a look at our forecast for

antioch and it's also breezy in some spots. it's 46 degrees and it's also all clear. the sunshine continues for today as we head for the upper 60s for this afternoon. napa will see a high of 68 degrees, 68 in san jose with some mid-60s in hayward. livermore, we're going to reach 66 degrees and a little bit warmer for tomorrow's forecast. i'll have a look at that coming up in just a few minutes. we'll be watching everything as well as the events going on coming up. now as we get out on the roads this morning, we have a lot of green sensors. it is overall a friday-like commute. highway 4 is slowing down just a little bit. and then looking at the tri-valley, we've seen that incident that was at the altamont pass has cleared but we're seeing the slowdown and it's starting to back up on 84. maybe a better option to continue on 580. as of now, it's still smooth

flowing. and the bridges are flowing well for the most part. i haven't seen any incidents. but it is taking just a little bit longer to get across the bay bridge now that they turned on the metering lights. and it's all green for the san mateo bridge. another update in a few minutes. >> thank you so much. in just a few hours, the man charged with killing executive bob lee is expected to appear in court. and possibly center a plea. >> thom jensen joins us from the newsroom. no official motive yet from the district attorney or police? >> that's right. but the da office has confirmed that the suspect in that case will be in court for an arraignment at 9:00 a.m. today. but we have not learned what the motive is. we could learn in the court records later today if the release after that arraignment, 38-year-old nima momemi who was one of the last people known to have seen bob lee before his

stabbing death ten days ago was arrested yesterday at his home. april 4th, police found lee with stab wounds at 2:30 in the morning and he died later in a hospital. it only makes sense that police would talk to momemi, a tech consultant, because other friends saw the two together just hours earlier. he told nbc bay area the arrest gives him little solace. >> supposed to be hanging out this week in miami. it was a little weird. catching the guy makes things better. >> police would not say whether they found the murder weapon. but they saw police recover a knife near the murder scene. that's another thing we could learn about today. but for now, we don't know how many details are going to be in those documents or when they're going to be released. so stay tuned for that. >> case we'll continue to cover. thank you very much. now we have more details

now. neighbors in the emeryville building where the suspect was arrested, they're stunned by this latest development. >> i heard a bang, bang, bang, bang. and i don't know what it was. it sounds like something hitting metal. >> one neighbor describing what she heard as police arrived early yesterday. she called the suspect polite and friendly. as does another neighbor sam singer. singer recently moved into the space next door to momemi's unit and he said he gave him a tour. >> very typical san francisco technology office. there's a big pool table in the middle. lots of technology equipment, a lot of wiring. very fancy gourmet food in the kitchen, fancy upscale stereo system. >> neighbors also tell us about another mystery. they say early in the morning

the night before the murder, they could hear a woman knocking on doors screaming something that sounded like the suspect's first name. but it's still not clear if there's any connection. of course, we'll continue to follow this story closely as it develops. we're posting all of the updates in one place. head to our website, nbcbayarea.com. click bob lee. it's right there at the top of your home page. the man suspected of leaking classified documents on the internet will appear in federal court later this morning. this comes less than 24 hours after he was taken into custody.

documents in custody after heavily armed agents swarmed his massachusetts home. >> the justice department arrested jack douglas teixeira into unauthorized removal, retention and transmission of classified national defense information. >> reporter: the justice department says the 21-year-old air national guardsman worked in the intelligence wing of the guard. the leak exposed important documents, including intel about key u.s. allies in russia's war against ukraine. military officials say they have measures in place to safeguard such sensitive government secrets. >> this was a deliberate criminal act, a violation of those guidelines. >> lawmakers say they plan to examine why this happened and how to prevent future leaks. >> this is very dangerous. when you hear stories like this,

especially with just kids and un -- or looking this almost as a game itself. >> the defense department is assessing the scope and scale of the leak as well as the damage to national security. president biden appeared to downplay it. >> i'm not concerned about the -- i'm concerned that it happened. but there's nothing contemporaneous that i'm aware of that is of grave consequence. >> the justice department's criminal investigation is ongoing. >> and this case is raising serious questions about access to government secrets. officials are reviewing the situation and they say while they already have measures in place, they will further tighten access guidelines if needed. marcus? >> many questions a lot of people that i know have been asking once they saw the report of the story. brie jackson in washington this morning, thank you. . maybe you only work a four-day workweek and you're
