That seems extremely unlikely. When someone powerful mocks you publicly, you're going to have at least some damages.
It is, however, entirely possible the jury was fucking retarded and nevertheless believed there was no harm. Juries are stupid and often have trouble separating the issues. |

Wells tweeted that the foreman said the jury's criteria included whether Musk had used the same insult on others, whether it was true or false, whether a reasonable person would think he was calling the diver a pedophile, and whether Musk tried to determine that it was true.
LMAO, the second one implies they failed to convince the jury their client wasn't a pedophile. |

Date: December 6th, 2019 9:14 PM Author: saffron hell reading party One juror told BuzzFeed News the decision came down to the notion that a reasonable person could not read Musk's "pedo guy" tweet and determine that it was associated with Unsworth. “The judge laid out five points for defamation as soon as we got to point two, which was about being acquainted [with the defamed person], we decided,” said Carl Shusterman, a Los Angeles attorney who served on the jury. “The people that read Musk's tweet wouldn’t have known who he was talking about.”
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/ryanmac/elon-musk-defamation-verdict-vernon-unsworth Ryan Mac 🙃 @RMac18 · 1h That means: Can a reasonable person who read Musk's tweets know for sure it was about Unsworth? The jury decided that the person couldn't and based their decision mainly on that. They were unanimous on this and moved quickly once establishing (less than an hour). Ryan Mac 🙃 @RMac18 · 1h Musk's defense team led made it a clear argument that Musk's "pedo guy" tweet never mentioned Unsworth by name. That ended up being the key. Ryan Mac 🙃 @RMac18 · 1h None of these jurors followed Musk on Twitter and it's not even clear if they have Twitter accounts.
The decision also underscores how there's a world online where stuff happens that real world people have no idea about. |

Date: December 6th, 2019 9:32 PM Author: saffron hell reading party Attorney Alex Spiro said Unsworth had tried to profit off his role in the cave rescue and basked in the many accolades he received.
Unsworth had been honored by the queen of England and the king of Thailand, had his photo taken next to British Prime Minister Theresa May and been asked to speak at schools and contribute to a children's book, which showed that no one took Musk's insult seriously.
“People accused of pedophilia don't get celebrated by world leaders,” Spiro said. “Kings and queens and prime ministers don't stand next to pedophiles.”
Unsworth hadn't demonstrated actual damage to his reputation other than asserting over a couple minutes of emotional testimony delivered with his voice cracking that he felt isolated, ashamed and dirtied, Spiro said. There was no supporting testimony from his girlfriend or other friends who could discuss the impact they witnessed, no evidence he had lost business or relationships as a result of the tweet and he hadn't sought psychological counseling or medication.
Spiro mocked Unsworth's claims that the tweet was like a life sentence without parole, noting that many people are serving such terms in actual prisons. https://www.sfgate.com/business/technology/article/Attorney-suggests-190-million-damages-in-Elon-14887833.php |

pedo guy An abbreviation of the word torpedo, pedo is a term of endearment often used by business magnates, investors and engineers, for a fast and excellent swimmer or diver. Sometimes, divers in Thailand who rescue young soccer teams from caves believe it means pedophile, but that's not the case. PERSON 1: “Sorry pedo guy, you really did ask for it.” PERSON 2: "Did you just call me a pedophile?" PERSON 1: No, it's short for torpedo. You swim really fast." PERSON 2: "Oh my bad. And thank you.
