Happened with Enron, too. When the finance guy cuts and runs, you know something's about to go down.

And may be related to Twitter, Musk may need to sell a LOT of Tesla stock to cover his failure in the platform, and the stock might come down or be even claimed by Musk's co-investors on Shitter...

When CFOs have a "sudden departure", how long before stories of financial hanky-panky start surfacing?

Musk was once good at recruiting and retaining top talent. That's gone out of the window as he has increasingly lost touch with reality lately. Not a good sign at all.
