The family of Suchir Balaji, a former OpenAI employee who was found dead from an alleged suicide in November, is raising funds for an independent investigation, disputing the official ruling. His mother, Poornima Ramarao, asserts that foul play was involved in her son’s death. Following his death, Ramarao hired a private investigator who reportedly found signs of struggle different from the police conclusion. She claims the apartment showed indications of a struggle, leading her to label it a murder. The family has set up a fundraising campaign through cryptocurrency, successfully raising over $140,000 for legal fees and further investigations. The funds are facilitated by a dedicated token, SUCHIR, within the crypto community, which aims to amplify their cause. As the investigation progresses, Balaji's family continues to seek justice and clarity regarding his untimely death.
