Oh man when I saw that and thought it was in my home town (South Pasadena), I didn't realize it was right at my gas station! It's a block or so down from my favorite Trader Joes too.
His allegation makes little sense based on my knowledge of the area. Not only is that location not near an airport but getting to one would take a hell of a long time. Painfully slow arterial roads in every which way except the 110 which goes straight through Downtown LA, usually with very heavy traffic. If you follow Orange Grove north, it enters one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in East LA with some incredible chateau sized houses, so if he wanted to find a rando to frame it makes sense he'd do it from there (assuming he owns property there).
Edit: according to [1] the child in question might have been one he had with his ex Grimes and according to [2] she bought a house in the area. Kinda checks out? Except the whole bit about someone stalking them all the way there from LAX [3]! If you were driving from LAX to Pasadena though, this is exactly the place you’d exit the freeway to gas up before heading up Orange Grove to the fancy neighborhoods

- cactusplant7374 4y agoDo you have the tweet where Elon says that they were stalked all the way from LAX? The way I read it was Elon was making a tenuous connection all along. He never said his kid was near an airport.
