Tesla sues employee for alleged sabotage, data leaks

This is all looking pretty shady. First he is saying how happy he is that they got to 3500 cars a week 6 months after he said they would be at 5000, praising employees for improving things so rapidly while also saying that 10% will be fired. Then he says ONE employee sabotaged a production line 'operating system'? and stole information...to give to the companies that HATE Tesla, such as oil companies that would love to see lots of electric cars on the road because that would actually end up increasing demand, other car companies such as Ford that has co-developed models with Tesla, or wall-street short-sellers who for some reason want intellectual property? And now it's all being pinned on a process technician, with a price high enough that the technician will end up being forced to admit guilt in return for them dropping the lawsuit?

I had big hopes for Tesla once...but the house of cards is falling and Musk's solution seems to be to try to shift blame.
