Suicide or murder?

You’ve probably never heard of Suchir Balaji, but he’s worth learning about.

Until two months ago, Balaji worked for OpenAI, developing technologies like ChatGPT that are rapidly changing the world.

Suchir Balaji worked as an engineer for Sam Altman building AI, until he decided that Altman was committing crimes. Balaji became a whistleblower, and soon after was found dead in his apartment. California authorities claim it was suicide. Crime scene photos clearly show a murder. Balaji’s mother, Poornima Ramarao, tells the most shocking story we’ve heard in a long time.

Toward the end of his employment, Balaji began believing his boss, billionaire Sam Altman, was committing crimes. So he blew the whistle. Police discovered his dead body shortly thereafter.

Was it a suicide? That’s what authorities say, but there’s plenty of reason to hold doubt. Balaji’s mother certainly does, and she joined today’s Tucker Carlson Show to tell the most shocking story we’ve heard in a long time.

Tucker on this case:

“This is not the first time I’ve been contacted by a family saying, ‘Our child’s death has been ruled a suicide, but we think it was a murder.’ Many people have claimed that. [But] I’ve never seen anything like this before. This, to any fair person, suggests [Suchir Balaji] was murdered.”
