Police provide first official details of Elon Musk’s alleged stalker incident

Police say a member of Elon Musk’s security team is currently a suspect in their investigation, not a victim

www.theguardian.com

Twitter CEO Elon Musk tweeted last week that a “crazy stalker” followed a car carrying one of his children in Los Angeles last Tuesday night, “thinking it was me,” and that the stalker blocked the car from moving and climbed onto its hood.

A new statement from local police provides the first official account of what happened during the incident. The South Pasadena police department has confirmed that an incident involving two vehicles was reported to the police on Tuesday night, but said that a member of Elon Musk’s security team is currently a suspect in the investigation, not a victim.

I'm really dubious about what value if any this crackpot brings to any business he haunts, but I'm thinking Tesla stockholders are going to be less than delighted to learn he'll be running the "software and servers" at his little company.

We're entering a forced recession to 'tame inflation'. The many many foreclosures scooped up by companies who will refer to them as 'providing a product' (a rental) is just incidental. Layoffs are going to be everywhere, not just Tesla.

So, considering Elon and Presidency; his mom's family was from PA [the same area my dad's family is from, and there are haldemans in my tree [I think through marriage, but, eh, that side's a mess and a half]], but she is Canadian, IIRC, and raised in South Africa, so that won't do the trick, thank the Gods.

Both the banks who financed Musk's purchase of Twitter and his shareholders at Tesla are feeling somewhat nervous, and with good reason.

The banks will be the ones having to dismantle and sell Tesla and Twitter assets while Musk posts derogatory remarks about liberal mainstream finance cancelation policies on the new Muspace free speech social media service.

I am sure there is a proverb or a Sun Tsu quote about chosing your bedfellows properly.

Just waiting to see if the corpse of Tesla ends up with Ford, Hyundai, Honda, or British Leyland.

I read my way through at least a hundred comments in an article describing the event. What I found most interesting was the replies to one belligerent Muskfan/troll, in which people noted when they had stopped liking Musk. Many of them cited the incident in Thailand, where he accused one of the rescuers of being a pedophile. I'd forgotten all about that, because I wasn't paying any attention to Musk back then, but apparently it made quite an impact on other people's opinion of him.

Lengthy article in today's Times about the rescuer, Vern Unsworth.

Thai rescue hero sheds light on the caves’ darkest secrets

In 2018, Vern Unsworth was instrumental in rescuing 12 young footballers and their coach after 18 days underground. He’s happy to get back to a normal life — but is sick of talking about Elon Musk

It looked like it was trying to stabilize before Christmas, but whooop

If it doesn't try to stabilize again it could be under $100 before the 1st.

Does the company own or produce anything worth a hundred dollars a share?
