Los Angeles (CNN Business) After a four-day-long trial, a jury took less than an hour to decide that Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk did not defame British caver Vernon Unsworth when he sent a tweet calling Unsworth "pedo guy." "My faith in humanity is restored," Musk said as he was leaving the courtroom on Friday after the verdict was announced. During closing arguments on Friday, Unsworth's attorney L. Lin Wood said the tweet was "a nuclear bomb." "There are people and relationships and situations that will be harmed for decades because of the fallout," Wood said.
