Missing boys in Thai caves

"Elon Musk has asked a US judge to dismiss a lawsuit by a British diver who helped rescue a boys soccer team trapped in a Thailand cave and said Musk defamed him by calling him a paedophile and child rapist.
In a filing on Wednesday with the US district court in Los Angeles, Musk’s lawyers said their client’s comments about Vernon Unsworth were free speech protected by the US constitution’s first amendment even if they lacked any factual basis.
They also said Musk’s “over-the-top” comments came amid a “schoolyard spat on social media”, including Twitter, where participants “expect to read opinions, not facts”, and that no one could have reasonably believed they were truthful.
These statements were “just imaginative attacks; even if offensive, such speculative insults are by their nature opinion and protected by the first amendment,” the lawyers said."
Any lawyers (or others here) wanting to comment?

I wonder how Elon Musk would react to being called a paedophile and a child rapist.
