Elon Musk won’t get an apology from a British cave expert who called the Tesla Inc. chief executive’s effort to use a mini-submarine to rescue soccer players trapped in a Thai cave a PR stunt. “I’m not sure how I need to apologize,” the caver, Vernon Unsworth, told a jury in Los Angeles on Thursday. Unsworth, who knew the caves well, ridiculed the high-profile effort from Musk, who is also the CEO of SpaceX. Unsworth told CNN that Musk could “stick his submarine where it hurts.”Unsworth testified Thursday that he didn’t realize CNN was a major international network. “When you combine ‘sus’ and ‘pedo guy,’ I took it as I was being branded a pedophile,” Unsworth told the jury Wednesday.
