I imagine they probably don't want to release the information that would prove it if they could, and if they did it'd be redacted enough that no one would believe it anyway. It also costs money to fight endless things like this.
Ultimately, if the government comes back and says its legit, then people will believe it. If it's fraud, there should be punishment.
That whole 1.5 billion accounting fraud story last week, I don't think Tesla said anything official about it or done anything at least to specifically disprove it, but the FT has now retracted the story saying they made a mistake.
They probably had their families threatened. That's what fascist regimes do.
The story explains what their mistake was that others pointed out to them.
