Elon Musk uncovered himself to SpaceX flight attendant, in keeping with documents

Billionaire tech entrepreneur Elon Musk allegedly paid off a former employee via his aerospace firm SpaceX after sexually propositioning her during a 2016 encounter aboard his private jet, in response to a Enterprise Insider report revealed Thursday night.

The publication's report, written by Wealthy McHugh, cites documents obtained from a buddy of the flight attendant, who was allegedly paid $250,000 by SpaceX in 2018 to settle a sexual misconduct declare brought in opposition to Musk by the employee. The paperwork state the worker accused Musk of "exposing his erect penis to her, rubbing her leg without consent, and offering to buy her a horse in exchange for an erotic massage."

The documents embrace a declaration signed by the attendant's friend, as well as e mail correspondence and different supplies obtained by Enterprise Insider. They alleged that the incident in question occurred during a personal massage on Musk's Gulfstream jet. The publication reached out to Musk for comment Wednesday. He provided an initial response before finally severing communication.

"If I were inclined to engage in sexual harassment, that is unlikely to be the primary time in my whole 30-year career that it involves mild," Musk told Business Insider. He also characterized the inquiry as a "politically motivated hit piece," based on the publication.

SpaceX Vice President of Legal Christopher Cardaci refused to touch upon "any settlement agreements" when reached by cellphone, in keeping with Enterprise Insider.

The declaration describes the 2016 encounter which led to the later settlement as occurring late in the 12 months. It states Musk beckoned the attendant to his room throughout a flight and was discovered "utterly bare aside from a sheet protecting the lower half of his physique." It states Musk exposed his erect penis to the SpaceX employee and "touched her and provided to purchase her a horse if she would 'do more.'" 

The attendant, an equestrian, declined Musk's offer, in accordance with the pal's declaration obtained by Business Insider. 

"He whipped out his penis, it was erect," the pal stated in the declaration assertion. "And he started propositioning her, like he touched her thigh and instructed her he would buy her a horse. And he mainly tried to bribe her to perform some kind of sexual act." 

The attendant's $250,000 severance package deal included non-disclosure and non-disparagement clauses that barred the attendant from mentioning the incidents or payment, or disclosing information regarding SpaceX or Musk's businesses.

As of this writing, Musk has yet to respond publicly to the story.
