Martin Tripp
Martin Tripp is a former Tesla technician who gained notoriety in 2018 for blowing the whistle on alleged wasteful practices in the production of the Model 3. He claimed that Tesla was using an excessive amount of raw materials during manufacturing, which he felt compromised safety and quality standards. In retaliation, Elon Musk accused Tripp of being a 'saboteur' and pursued a lawsuit against him for $167 million, alleging he had hacked the company’s systems and leaked confidential information. The case exemplified the high-stakes legal environment surrounding whistleblowers within the Tesla organization.
