Ex-NFL Player Darron Lee Allegedly Used ChatGPT for Murder Cover-Up Prosecutors revealed that former New York Jets linebacker Darron Lee, 31, allegedly used the AI chatbot ChatGPT to plan the murder of his ex-partner, Gabriella Carvalho Perpétuo, who was found dead in a home in Ooltewah, Tennessee. During a preliminary hearing, authorities disclosed that Lee had sent prompts to the chatbot seeking guidance on how to conceal the crime, including details about the victim’s injuries and potential methods to avoid detection. According to court documents, Lee was arrested on February 6, 2025, and charged with first-degree murder and tampering with evidence. Prosecutors stated that Lee allegedly described the incident to ChatGPT, claiming his fiancée had “slipped and fallen” and sustained severe injuries, including “puncture wounds” and “swollen eyes.” The chatbot reportedly responded by outlining a strategy to frame the incident as an accident, avoiding direct involvement in the crime. District Attorney Coty Wamp testified that Lee engaged in “dozens of conversations” with ChatGPT over two days, detailing the alleged attack. Wamp emphasized that Lee’s explanations to the AI were inconsistent with the physical evidence found at the scene. The victim’s body showed signs of blunt force trauma, including a stab wound to the abdomen, a human bite mark on her shoulder, and extensive bruising. Blood was found throughout the home, including on the floor, walls, and staircase, suggesting a violent struggle. Authorities also noted that the victim had “black eyes with heavy swelling” and dried blood on her face and neck, indicating severe physical trauma. The autopsy concluded the cause of death was blunt force trauma, though the exact circumstances remain under investigation.#chatgpt #darron_lee #gabriella_carvalho_perpetuo #ooltewah_tennessee #district_attorney_coty_wamp
