Elon Musk calls sexual misconduct allegations against him politically motivated

A flight attendant accused the billionaire of sexual misconduct

Newsroom May 20 12:00

SpaceX founder Elon Musk said in a tweet late Thursday that “wild accusations” against him are not true.

He did not explain what those accusations were. But his response came after a Business Insider report on Thursday said the aerospace company had paid $250,000 in severance to a flight attendant who accused the billionaire of sexual misconduct.

The report, which cited interviews and documents obtained by Insider, said the woman claimed that during a massage she was giving Musk he exposed his erect penis, touched her thigh without her consent and offered to buy her a horse if she performed sex acts.

Musk, without referring directly to the report, tweeted that “for the record, those wild accusations are utterly untrue.”

“The attacks against me should be viewed through a political lens – this is their standard (despicable) playbook,” he tweeted.

The attacks against me should be viewed through a political lens – this is their standard (despicable) playbook – but nothing will deter me from fighting for a good future and your right to free speech
