NYT Investigation Details Decades of Child Sex Abuse Allegations Against Errol Musk

The Times says the claims led to multiple police inquiries with no convictions reported.

Overview

  • The report alleges Errol Musk abused five children and stepchildren in incidents spanning from 1993 to recent years in South Africa and California.
  • The earliest account involves a then 4-year-old stepdaughter in 1993, and a more recent allegation describes a then 5-year-old son reporting groping in 2022–2023 with a social worker’s involvement.
  • Police and court records indicate three investigations were opened over the years, two were closed, and the outcome of the third remains unclear.
  • Errol Musk, 79, denied the accusations as false and called them “nonsense,” asserting relatives were influencing children and seeking money from Elon Musk.
  • Family members repeatedly sought Elon Musk’s help, including a five-page letter around 2010, and the billionaire has provided financial support to some relatives while offering no public comment on the new report.
