Update to the Suchir Balaji case.
I've sort of been following the Balaji case since last year, but stopped paying attention even when the case re-opened...what a fool I was huh?
I just got recommended this video on the case. Crime scene photos are out, and it's raising suspicions that this supposed suicide may be more fabricated than once thought.
The video is only 3 minutes long, but here are the key notes:
- Despite dying in his bathroom, blood splatters could be seen far from the bathroom.
- Tufts of synthetic hair were found at the crime scene.
- Balaji had a blood stained ear bud in the bathroom, whilst the other was found at the entrance to his bedroom.
- It's suspected that Balaji may have fought with the intruder, which could explain why there was blood literally everywhere opposed to just the bathroom, where he supposedly killed himself.
- His apartment was ransacked. Mother confirmed earlier in the month that Balaji had documents for case against OpenAI.
- Not mentioned in the video, but it was confirmed in an interview that some documents were missing: Making a grave allegation against OpenAI, Rao said on record that "My son had documents against OpenAI. They attacked him and killed him," adding that "some documents were missing" after his death.
