2022-05-20: [Article Link]  Musk On May 20th, Phoenix Network Science News Beijing reported that in 2018, Elon Musk, the United States Space Exploration Technology Company (SpaceX) under the banner of Elon Musk, paid $250,000 (approximately 1.7 million Yuan yuan) to a flight attendant to close charges of sexual misconduct against Musk. According to insider interviews and documents obtained, she accused Musk of exposing her erection, touching her legs without consent and offering to buy her a horse in exchange for a pornographic massage. The incident took place in 2016, when a friend of the pilot signed a statement in support of her allegations. The details of the report came from this statement and other documents, including an e-mail communication and other records that the friend shared with Insider. According to this statement, the flight attendant revealed to her friend that she had been encouraged to apply for a massager's licence after accepting the flight attendant's job, so that she could massage Musk. She told her friend that she had requested sex from Musk during a massage in a private cabin of the Gulfstream G650ER private plane in Musk. Musk's Gulfstream G650ER private aircraft In 2018, after being convinced that the rejection of Musk's offer reduced her chances in SpaceX, the flight attendant hired a California employment lawyer and sent a complaint to the company's human resources department detailing the incident. Her complaint was resolved promptly after a mediation meeting of a mediator, in which Musk personally participated, and the matter was never brought before a court or arbitral proceeding. In November 2018, Musk, SpaceX and the flight attendant entered into a separation agreement to pay $250,000 to the crew. In response, Musk sent an e-mail stating that he needed more time to respond to the allegation and saying that “if I had a tendency to sexually harass, it was unlikely that this would be the first time in my 30-year career” and he wrote that the story was a “politically motivated article”. The Vice President of SpaceX Legal Affairs, Christopher Cardaci, said: “I will not comment on any settlement agreement.” SpaceX has yet to comment.
