I don't think so. He was in much more risk before, with SEC investigation. The accuser in civil suit is asking for $75k worth of damages. I think Musk can pay off that fine and be free from it. I guess there will be no jail time. Although, i'm not a lawyer.
- GW150914 8y agoPlus, he’s still facing a raft of civil suits beyond the SEC, even beyond the one from the man he kept accusing of being a pedophile. As I said, beyond that suit, i.e. the suits he’s facing over the tweets. And the DOJ investigation.
- equathink 8y agoThe defamation accuser's complaint alleges compensatory damages "in excess of" $75k only because it's a jurisdictional requirement for US federal court. He will seek much more at trial, plus additional punitive damages.
- jhall1468 8y agoYeah he will, and he'll get paid and it will be junk money to someone like Musk. That's not the DOJ case anyway.
