Los Angeles School Superintendent Denies Wrongdoing and Asks for His Job Back During Federal Probe
Carvalho denies wrongdoing and seeks reinstatement after FBI raids linked to a $3 million failed AI chatbot contract with AllHere, whose founder faces fraud charges.
- On Tuesday, Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho broke his silence nearly two weeks after FBI raids, denying wrongdoing and asking the school board to reinstate him.
- Sources say the probe appears linked to AllHere, education-technology company that landed a $6 million contract in 2024 and received $3 million from LAUSD before collapsing with founder Joanna Smith-Griffin charged.
- Federal agents executed simultaneous search warrants on Feb. 25 at Carvalho's San Pedro home, LAUSD headquarters and Southwest Ranches residence, seizing computers, cell phones and paper records.
- The LAUSD Board of Education voted 7-0 to place Carvalho on leave and appointed Andres Chait as acting superintendent during its first meeting since the raids.
- While prosecutors say the investigation is ongoing, supporting affidavits remain sealed and grand-jury subpoenas have sought Miami-Dade County Public Schools Foundation records tied to Carvalho's prior contracts.
