The parents of departed OpenAI whistleblower Suchir Balaji have taken legal action against the city of San Francisco and the San Francisco Police Department, alleging that the real cause of his death was not suicide, but murder.

The claim, submitted in January, declares that the SFPD covered up the criminal activity, classicalmusicmp3freedownload.com ruling it a suicide without carrying out a comprehensive investigation.

Balaji, who had worked as a scientist at OpenAI, was found dead in his San Francisco apartment or condo last November. Attorneys state Balaji's parents, Poornima Ramarao and Balaji Ramamurthy, asked for higgledy-piggledy.xyz even more examination into his death but were informed the case was already closed.

"The claim requires that the city, police department, and medical examiner release public documents kept under the general public Records Act," Joseph Goethals, lawyer for the petitioners, told Decrypt. He said that if the documents weren't supplied within 10 days, genbecle.com and "no legitimate exceptions use, a claim can force their release. We will look for a court order to obtain them."

The claim claims that SFPD violated the California Public Records Act by unlawfully withholding public records of the case. Attorneys for Ramarao and Ramamurthy likewise argued that the examination into their son's death was rushed and insufficient, with authorities neglecting key forensic findings and failing to resolve their demands for further query.

The claim demands the instant disclosure of all reports, images, and videos, together with protection of legal expenses.

Said Geothals: "If the San Francisco Superior Court does not interpret and impose the law correctly, we will seek option with the Court of Appeal. We hope it doesn't pertain to that."

Balaji worked for OpenAI from November 2020 to August 2024. In an interview with The New york city Times in October, he said that before the general public launch of ChatGPT in November 2022, he had actually helped OpenAI gather and use "enormous quantities" of data taken from the internet without consent.

According to the claim, in December, Balaji's family employed forensic pathologist Dr. Joseph Cohen to carry out a personal autopsy. In his report, Dr. Cohen identified that there was a single gunshot wound in the mid-forehead, somewhat to the right of the bridge of his nose.

Dr. Cohen said that the bullet trajectory was unusual for a suicide, as it traveled downward at a small left-to-right angle, entirely missing out on the brain before lodging in the brainstem, hikvisiondb.webcam according to the suit. Dr. Cohen recognized a contusion on the back of Balaji's head, which he said raised even more questions about the circumstances of his death.

The San Francisco Police Department did not right away react to a request for comment by Decrypt.

The claim called out the situations of Bilaji's death. His body was found a week after The New York Times discussed the whistleblower in a court filing related to its claim against OpenAI.

Despite Balaji's revelations, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman pushed back on the New york city Times' claims. Speaking at the newspaper's yearly DealBook Summit, Altman dismissed the claims.
