LOL!
All trials are risky.
Funding secured can mean many things.
Jurors may be happy Tesla customers and won't convict. Even if jurors convict, judge may not remove Musk.
Musk can appeal, higher level judges may say it's not a crime to lie on Twitter (see Trump's twitter account).
If you think it's a "slam dunk", you must not be an experienced lawyer.

- Latteland 8y agoIt was stupid and dangerous to do that. I think a fine and slap on the wrist was okay. I wish the time out of cob was shorter. The secdies a terrible job of finding leaders of companies, this was just more egregious than usual. Look at all those banks that went under on wall street, no fines or prison terms after saying they were fine.
