US Man Confesses to Beheading Boss to Hide Theft and Avoid Break-up With Girlfriend

In an update in a 2020 case of murder, a US man’s lawyer has revealed that his client ‘beheed’ his boss in a “crime of passion”. Tyrese Haspil was personal assistant to tech chief executive officer (CEO) Fahim Saleh, and killed him to hide his USD 400,000 ft from company, said his defense attorney Sam Roberts in Manhattan Supreme Court.

Haspil was caught by his boss for a missing amount of USD 90,000 from a corporate spending account in January 2020. accused’s lawyer said that Haspil was terrified that his girlfriend, Marine Chaveuz, would come to know about his ft and break-up with him. 

For a reason as shocking as this, if claim by lawyers is to be believed, Haspil entered Fahim Saleh’s Manhattan home and killed him. He first tasered his boss and n stabbed him to death, said Roberts.

defense attorney argued that his client suffered from “extreme emotional disturbance” and a troubled childhood with a mentally ill mor, and that it all ded up and led him to kill a person. lawyer is trying for a softer sentence for his client based on “emotionally disturbed” argument. 

Haspil didn’t want to be “abandoned” by his girlfriend after she found out about his ft, and so thought of two options, “suicide or homicide,” choosing to kill, said prosecutors.

What is even more shocking is that after first ft was caught, Saleh did not press charges against Haspil and inste allowed him to pay him back.

Taking vantage of this, Haspil began stealing from Saleh’s company through Paypal again, and was caught. New York Post reports that Haspil even used his de boss’ credit cards to pay for clean-up supplies after he committed murder. Moreover, Haspil also used his credit cards to pay for a date with anor woman.

Haspil was caught thanks to an “anti-felon disk” identification tag from taser, which he h failed to clean-up.

Fahim Saleh was a venture capitalist and CEO of Goka, a Nigeria-based motorbike startup.
