Elon Musk has been found not guilty of deceiving investors with tweets in 2018, after a jury in San Francisco deliberated for less than two hours. The verdict is seen as a major vindication for Musk, and a sign that the courts are willing to give tech executives some leeway when it comes to their public statements. The case is now closed, and Musk is free to continue leading Tesla and Twitter without the threat of legal action.
