Overview

• The New York Times reports allegations from five children and stepchildren dating to 1993 in South Africa and California.
• Sources include police and court records, personal letters and emails, social‑worker notes, and interviews with family members.
• Three law‑enforcement investigations were opened over the years; two ended without action and the outcome of a third is unclear.
• Errol Musk, 79, denies the allegations, calling them false and claiming relatives fabricated accounts to target Elon Musk.
• Relatives repeatedly sought Elon Musk’s help, including a five‑page letter around 2010, and he has not issued a substantive public response to the new report.
