Unsworth Vs Musk defamation trial

This is so Pedestrian

This are just typical tech worker "demi boots". Elon wears them sometimes as well. Very trendy to wear very expensive versions of these to work. (may be useful when walking along the poop covered SF sidewalks and outside BART stations) Long pants cuffs also trendy in the Bay area. Nothing to see here.

Funny how Stanton just knows the sub never would have worked, even though he never saw it in person just saw a video clip of it.

Also he said that Unsworth was key to the rescue, but I thought he never actually did anything directly with the rescue - how was he key to it?

This trial support my belief that some lawyers don't care if they have a decent case or not. They just want a client they can bill. And will encourage anything profitable.

I am not defending the tort lawyers but you do realize that if the Plaintiff gets nothing his lawyers also get nothing and likely are out thousands in expenses. It is EMs lawyers who are likely billing by the hour. We should also remember that even though there are lawyers who will take a case for a client who is only greedy there are tort lawyers who have brought down cigarette companies and worse. Like you I suspect Unsworth lawyers are not the more responsible kind.

Gee, per that first pic in RyanMac's blog - that shows Mr Musk and his 'boys' entering....there sure are some really weird shoes/socks/pantcuffs or something going on in that photo - esp. the two on the left. Take a look.

Haven't you seen the John Wick films?

Remember that crazy guy who came up with that idea about landing a rocket on a barge? I saw a video of the rocket once. Didn’t look like it would have worked.

Read the twitter thread in the first post. Actually you have to look down for a tweet saying "this is the live blog..." and read all of that.

Not finding that live blog...? Not sure I want to give that guy any clicks either, he's half the reason it got to this.

This lady's coverage is very decent and she's writing up a summary each day:

Caver Unsworth testifies he felt ‘dirtied’ by Musk’s ‘pedo guy’ tweet

I find it's very difficult to understand what actually is happening in court from the words of a very biased reporter. You are guaranteed not to hear the positives for Musk and only hear the negatives. That being said, it looks like Stanton took the side of Unsworth, which is not going to help Elon's case in the eyes of the jury.
We can believe that the sub would have worked, but Stanton is probably seen as an "authority" in the matter. I'm sure that the emails where Stanton asked Elon to keep on working on the solution were also shown so, again, it is difficult to understand from Ryan's tweets what was the jury's overall impression.

Would it be worse if he had felt "filtherated"? No, please don't answer that.

Even that quote is a load of hoohey. The tube was not made to hold all the air needed. It had multiple redundant protected air connections at both ends. Seems more snag proof than a mask on a sedated kid.

Ryan also refered to Sam Teller as Elon's "former chief of staff". Has he quit in the last week?

According to Sam Teller's LinkedIn profile, Ryan Mac is a liar.
Who would have thought?

As a following tweet points out, yet no correction...

However, the trial is not about who was more helpful in the rescue. Stanton made 2 statement that is very helpful to Musk and devastating to Unsworth:

1. Elon was asked by Stanton to build the "tube", which proves he was helping on request and not just trying to make a "publicity stunt" as Unsworth claimed. Clearly -1 point for Unsworth, +1 for Musk.
2. He stated he never personally met Elon, yet Unsworth claimed Elon was asked told to leave (hence the comment he can shove the sub up his butt), but how could he have been told to leave by the leader of the divers if they never met ? Oopsy -1 for Unsworth, proven lie.

Careful, this whole thing started because of a similarly shaped object...

Yesterday's summary: Elon Musk’s lawyers pressure caver Unsworth for an apology

Swings back to Musk's favour IMO

 

[TheGrimSweeper]

Who knows, he will probably lose. As outrageous as it is that this is even a court case, the jury will probably find Elon as the "big bad billionaire" in this case.
