Elon Musk wins defamation case
The American entrepreneur has been cleared of defaming a British cave explorer on Twitter
A jury in Los Angeles has found the American entrepreneur Elon Musk not guilty of defaming a British cave explorer by calling him 'pedo guy' on Twitter. Mr Musk insulted Vernon Unsworth after he rejected the businessman's offer to help rescue twelve boys and their football coach in Thailand last year.
