A Californian man reportedly stabbed his wealth management co-worker and the victim's roommate to death in their Anaheim apartment on Tuesday, April 19.
The accused, Ramy Hany Mounir Fahim, 26, of Irvine, has been charged with two counts of murder, two enhancements each of lying in wait, multiple murders, and the personal use of a deadly weapon after the suspect allegedly stabbed his co-worker, Griffin Cuomo, and his roommate, Jonathan Bahm, to death in their Anaheim flat, Law & Crime reported.
Fahim and Cuomo reportedly worked together at Pence Wealth Management in Orange County. Cuomo joined the company in 2021 and served as a marketing and media assistant in the company.
Just hours before the murders at midnight, on April 18, a security guard at Cuomo's apartment complex encountered Fahim on the roof. Meanwhile, Fahim was also seen on the same floor of the victims' apartment the morning of the killings.
Officers responded to the scene after they received reports of an in-progress assault at an apartment in the 2100 block of E. Katella Avenue. When they reached the residence, they found two men dead in the flat. Fahim was also found at the scene. He suffered from what police described as a “minor injury.” The authorities were not able to immediately identify the victims at the time, People reported.
Fahim is currently being held without bail at the Intake Release Center and is scheduled to be arraigned on May 6 at the North Justice Center in Fullerton.
It is unclear if Fahim has obtained legal representation.
"These young men were just starting to live out their dreams and find their places in the world. But an intruder who stalked them and then slashed them to death in their own home interrupted those dreams," said Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer.
"The callous way that two young lives were ended cannot be ignored and we will do everything we can to ensure justice is served," he continued.
Cuomo and Bahm were both alumni of Chapman University. Cuomo was a part of the School of Communication, while Bahm was a member of the Fowler School of Engineering.
