Cops Cast Doubt on Musk’s Claim That ‘Crazy Stalker’ Followed His Son

FTA: "In a press release on Tuesday, the South Pasadena Police Department outlined a different set of facts, declaring at first that “detectives do not believe Mr. Musk or any member of his family were present during the confrontation,” which Deputy City Manager Domenica Megerdichian confirmed in a phone call with The Daily Beast. Soon after, the department released an updated press release, which simply stated that Musk wasn’t present during the incident."

sounds like the "detectives" working on this don't even know who was there. It would be nice to see the actual press releases.

Those don't seem _different_, as such; just a clarification. "We don't think [X] happened, but we'll have to confirm" followed by "We checked, [X] did not happen" isn't a particularly unreasonable stance.

Disagree - “Musk or any family member” vs “Musk” are fundamentally different - the first implies none of his family was present. The second could be seen as “we discovered a family member of musk was present, but musk was not”
