Yep pretty sure all the legal scholars over there are having a rough time of it. They were so sure he would be found liable, just like they were sure the SEC would lay the smack down. Musk has definitely brought some of that scorn through his actions, but I'm also convinced a certain amount of it will always be directed at successful people, particularly billionaires.

Ditto my experience in the 60/70s in South Africa.
But Australia is very strange..... when I lived there in the 80/90s, you could go to a party where the women were in the kitchen (!) And the men elsewhere. When I hung around the food table (in the hallway) to meet/ chat up women the blokes used to ask me if I was a 'poofter' or something similar.
Seriously weird!

Read this if you haven't yet Elon Musk is right, ‘pedo guy’ was slang in South Africa in the 1980s– but it wasn’t that common
Good PR win..like all those articles praising Elon for calling a guy a pedo the past three days from CNBC.

Didn’t you read Vernon texts I posted ?
He is a scamster, trying to make money off his 15 minutes of fame, with no shame. He is literally saying he will make the people actually risking their lives for little or no reward suffer for not keeping him in the loop.
After reading that - I’ve Zero respect for the guy. In fact he seems to be the typical expat used to exploiting the local people in the colonial way.
Interestingly this concluded federal lawsuit was the result of incidents that occurred only 17 months ago. Meanwhile, 39 months ago Tesla filed a federal lawsuit against Michigan officials for blocking Tesla stores and service centers in the state 62 months ago. We are still awaiting a trial which is supposed to occur in a federal court in a Michigan district..
Of course the Michigan matter has hugely more significance regarding Tesla, Inc. than the trial involving Musk that ended yesterday. If Tesla wins in federal court, it could set a favorable precedent regarding similar circumstances in other states.
Does anyone here know when this Michigan case is going to be tried? It's supposed to be a jury trial. One might wonder if the favorable verdict yesterday for Musk provides a clue as to how a jury might react toward Tesla in Michigan.

Last I read, February is next date of stuff happening.
Really..? when did this happen.
You are so ignorant on this topic, or you have been sucked in by the vitriol spewed by the Musk hating journalist stories.
let me guess, and answer me honestly - you probably think Vernon is a Diver? correct?
You and I ignoring those haters in this echo chamber means nothing. They are being supported by main stream media journalist scumbags like Russ, Dana, Linetter, Laura, Charlie etc..
Unsworth did diddly to save the kids. he simply gave them a map and some more information about the cave. He did not even come to the cave and stepped into the cave. He was out there to get publicity and make some quick money.
This is just playground rules 101. Unsworth was the small kid who launched an unprovoked kick to the shin of the biggest kid in the playground. He knew very well what he was doing before mocking, embarrassing en humiliating Elon on CNN, giving the first blow.
Elon retaliated, but if you kick the big kid you shouldn't be surprised if he knocks you senseless with one blow.
And you don't go crying at the principals office if you started the fight. If you can't handle the retaliation, you shouldn't provoke a fight.

Have been trawling and reporting many $TSLAQ this weekend, it really is a cesspit of hatred and ugliness, can't imagine how depressing life must be when you're so filled with bile.
Anyway, what is amusing is how they turn on each other when it doesn't go their way - Lin Wood is apparently the "idiot of the day".

Does anybody know what the requirements are that would allow a retrial?
Elon Musk could face retrial in ‘pedo guy’ case | TheLiveFeeds.com

A very good rule of thumb for parsing the multitudinous articles on this subject has been to notice whether the first reference to Unsworth has been with the incorrect descriptor “diver”, and whether the descriptor of the verbal donnybrook begins with Unsworth calling Musk’s efforts “a PR stunt”, rather than with his telling him where to stick his submarine.
This article ticks both those boxes.
I get that they have some facts wrong, but do you think that they made up that the lawyer said he is going to file for a retrial in the next couple weeks?
Doubt it, lawyers do this sometimes to get their name in the media, and as a thing to show off with without it leading anywhere in the end. He might file it though, but I doubt it leads anywhere.

Easy question. They didn’t get the result they wanted. I believe it’s a threat to have musk not seek his legal fees. Once again they have not judged him correctly. Will most likely persuade him to ask to be reimbursed
