Jurors from the Elon Musk defamation trial reportedly deliberated for less than a half hour before ruling in his favor: 'It was

Associated Press The jury presiding over Elon Musk's defamation trial reportedly took about 20 minutes to rule that the Tesla and SpaceX CEO was not guilty. The British cave explorer Vernon Unsworth sued Musk in 2018 after Musk called him a "pedo guy" on Twitter.
