Elon Musk won’t get an apology from a cave expert who called the Tesla CEO’s rescue submarine a PR stunt.
Elon Musk won’t get an apology from a British cave expert who called the Tesla Inc. chief executive’s effort to use a mini-submarine to rescue soccer players trapped in a Thai cave a PR stunt.
Unsworth sued Musk over the tweet, which the CEO told the jury was “a flippant, off-the-cuff insult.” Musk apologized on Twitter, and again during the trial,Musk and engineers at his companies prepared the mini-submarine to help with the rescue efforts in 2018, which drew international attention. The 12 soccer players, ages 11 to 16, and their coach were saved without the sub.
“When you combine ‘sus’ and ‘pedo guy,’ I took it as I was being branded a pedophile,” Unsworth told the jury Wednesday. ”I feel vulnerable and sometimes, when I’m in the U.K., I feel isolated.”
