I don't think he's guilty, insider trading requires having material, nonpublic knowledge of a company's workings, so to be guilty, Elon Musk would have to have knowledge.

Oddly enough I think Elon deserves to win this one since only a brainwashed moron thought it had a fair valuation and selling was the obvious play.
I really, really hate this guy. Just the worst kind of "I'm the smartest boy in the room" shit coming from a completely mid intellect that's been gassed up as the ueberboer his entire life. Load bearing toxic copes as central pillars of his identity. Viciously hateful takes and barely coded white supremacy nonsense. There's a lot there to despise, but I gotta tell you that unless it leads to his actual downfall, and it won't, how can anyone care about an accusation of something that's been obvious to anybody paying attention?
This guy made a car to spec on an apple 2 edutainment program and made it real. He's the worst.
He'll never wriggle out of this jam!
Assuming 
isn't literally braindead he would have scheduled this sale well in advance to avoid any insider trading accusations.
So there's only a 70% chance he's guilty.
:shocked-pikachu:
I sure hope this wealthy white man faces consequences!
ah well nevertheless
I have to admit that I was an idiot when I saw the title. I thought at first the DOJ might be doing something. What have I been smoking? I haven't even been smoking.
A Tesla investor is accusing...
Of course.
