Elon Musk, in day two of 'pedo guy' defamation trial, testified his net worth is around $20 billion, not much in cash
resumed testifying in his own defense on Wednesday in a defamation lawsuit filed by Vernon Unsworth, the British caver who he called a "pedo guy" on Twitter.
Unsworth's attorney L. Lin Wood on Wednesday asked whether Musk believed his "pedo guy" comment impacted Tesla shares. Musk said he had "received concerned notes from shareholders." The testimony ended with Wood asking about Musk's net worth. Over the objections of Alex Spiro, Musk's attorney, the judge allowed the question, saying "Let's give everyone a headline.
The clash between Musk and Unsworth began in the summer of 2018. Unsworth, who is a spelunker and expert diver, led the rescue of 12 boys and their soccer coach from a flooded cave in Thailand then. Once the boys and their coach were safe, Unsworth was asked what he thought of Musk in an interview on CNN. He characterized Musk's efforts as a publicity stunt, and said the Tesla CEO should "stick his submarine where it hurts."
