TORONTO<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Despite not seeing the new documentary “Musk,”<\/strong> that didn’t stop infamous attorney Alex Spiro<\/strong> from telling the film’s producers, five days before its Venice premiere<\/strong>, that they were “on formal legal notice.”<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spiro (rhymes with pyromaniac)<\/strong> is known for representing the dregs of society<\/strong>, including rap pariah Shawn Carter<\/strong>, better known as Jay-Z<\/strong>, and convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most recently, Spiro and his client Shawn Carter <\/strong>have been facing escalating scrutiny,<\/strong> for an alleged intimidation and cover-up campaign<\/a> for allegedly raping a “13 year-old-girl” in 2000<\/strong>, with close associate Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly, both Alex Spiro and Elon Musk <\/strong>have something in common: both are referenced extensively in the DOJ released Jeffrey Epstein files<\/strong>. We’ve compiled a comprehensive list, below. Based on critics research<\/a> suggesting Epstein ran a sophisticated blackmail network<\/strong>, which included Sean Combs<\/strong>, many are questioning Spiro’s role, and whether Musk is somehow involved.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The connections are numerous and deep: Musk’s ex Claire Boucher<\/a><\/strong>, also known as musician Grimes, <\/strong>signed to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation<\/strong><\/a> in 2013. Grimes stated that Musk “became unrecognizable<\/a>,” earlier this year, following a protracted custody case.

But first, we analyze Spiro’s latest effort to stifle free speech<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No Sympathy for the Devil<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Sept. 3 letter<\/strong> to Jigsaw Productions<\/strong>, first\u00a0confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>, targets one passage in Alex Gibney’s<\/strong> nearly four-hour documentary<\/strong>. Ashley St. Clair<\/strong>, who has a child with Musk<\/strong>, describes text messages he sent her on Oct. 6, 2024<\/strong>, a month before the election. Musk wrote that “tomorrow we unleash the anomaly in the matrix,” then explained he meant “‘Lasers’ from space”<\/strong> and that he had “over 10 thousand lasers in space right now.”<\/strong>\u00a0NPR obtained and authenticated<\/a>\u00a0the texts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spiro’s complaint<\/strong> is what the film lets viewers infer. “Starlink was not connected to vote tabulation,”<\/strong> he wrote. “Election officials in multiple states, independent cybersecurity researchers, and fact-checkers publicly refuted the Starlink vote-rigging claim in November 2024, and nothing since has revived it.” The lasers, he said, are the links Starlink satellites use to talk to one another. “Defamation does not require an express accusation.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The letter accuses Gibney <\/strong>of refusing to screen the film or fact-check it with Musk’s team<\/strong>. “This project did not begin as an inquiry,” Spiro wrote. “It began with a conclusion.” It names Gibney, Jigsaw, HBO, Bleecker Street and Universal<\/strong>,\u00a0TheWrap reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Fairy Dust Letters” <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Jigsaw <\/strong>answered that “the right to engage in open debate and fact-based examinations of powerful public figures is protected by the first amendment,”<\/strong> a right it said should be defended by “the associates of Elon Musk<\/strong>, who has proclaimed himself to be a ‘free speech absolutist.’<\/strong>“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

St. Clair was blunter.<\/strong> “They are more likely to colonize Mars than win a defamation case against Alex Gibney,” she told NPR. “Alex Spiro is sending fairy dust letters with obtuse legalese.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Musk<\/strong>, on X, called the director “Gutless Gibney,” said the film was “boring af”<\/strong> and described it as “a hit piece that misses.”<\/strong> Gibney told a Toronto International Film Festival<\/strong> audience Sunday that he had reached out to Musk repeatedly. “With the exception of his remarks on Twitter, we received nothing back,”\u00a0he said<\/a>. Musk declined to be interviewed<\/strong>, so the film uses an AI-generated avatar that speaks only his own recorded words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Troubled attorney Alex Spiro has been linked to Jeffrey Epstein and other controversial characters. Spiro’s clients include Shawn Carter (Jay-Z), and Harvey Weinstein.

One Scandal After Another (The Talented Mr. Spiro)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Spiro<\/strong>, a Quinn Emanuel partner<\/strong>, is the lawyer a certain ilk of celebrity calls: Musk, Jay-Z, Alec Baldwin, Eric Adams, Jake Paul<\/strong>. Readers of this site know him from the\u00a0Ray J affair, in which he sued the whistleblower for Kim Kardashian<\/strong> and Kris Jenner<\/strong> and,\u00a0as we previously reported<\/a>, emailed warnings to blogs covering Ray J’s claims<\/strong>.

Spiro’s own pattern of misconduct and shady associations have drawn scrutiny:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
