OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Faces Sexual Abuse Allegations from Sister in Missouri Lawsuit, Seeks $75,000 and Jury Trial
Jan 8, 2025, 06:58 AM
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, faces allegations of sexual abuse from his sister, Ann Altman, in a lawsuit filed in Missouri. Ann claims the abuse occurred between 1997 and 2006, starting when she was three years old and Sam was twelve. The lawsuit alleges that the abuse was regular, involving acts such as oral sex and penetration, and resulted in severe emotional distress for Ann. Sam Altman, along with his mother and brothers, has denied these allegations, describing them as 'utterly untrue' and attributing Ann's claims to her mental health challenges. The family states they have tried to support Ann financially and emotionally, but she has rejected conventional treatment. Ann is seeking damages exceeding $75,000 and a jury trial.
