> A jury quite quickly ruled against defamation here
Yes, and? That changes nothing about Musk attacking a guy as "pedo" because he wanted to insert himself into the spotlight and went threw a fit when he was told off for that.
Also, as if professionals aren't saying the same thing, or as if he'd voluntarily undergo clinical diagnosis?
I find it worrying how often people try to pass off a court's decision as truth or in this case as proof of something entirely different.
I looked at the guy's link and it actually supports my view even more.
> A JDart, lawyer Alex Spiro explained, meant: a Joke that was badly received, therefore Deleted, with an Apology and then Responsive Tweets to move on from the matter. JDart.
> "Bet ya a signed dollar it's true."
> "Stop defending child rapists."
Given he made up a 12 yo bride and hired a PI to dig up dirt, this also proves Musk lied to the court. I don't know why the jury gave the wrong verdict but I knew only about the original "pedo guy" tweet and the PI this morning and the deeper I dig, even into material posted by his supporters, the worse it gets.
> I don't know why the jury gave the wrong verdict
Get help dude. “I don’t know why a jury that was given more information than me made a different decision”.
