Errol Musk Slams 'Jealous' Relatives After New York Times Accuses Him of Decades-Long Sexual Abuse

Errol Musk faces allegations of abusing five children and stepchildren over 30 years, with multiple police probes but no charges filed, sparking family disputes and calls for intervention.

  • A Tuesday investigation alleges decades-long abuse within the Musk family, reporting five of Errol Musk's children and stepchildren accused him of abuse in South Africa and California.
  • Around 2010, relatives sent Musk a five-page letter urging intervention because they said children were suffering; Errol has been married three times and maintains a powerful grip on much of the family.
  • Police records show three investigations were opened over the years, with two closed and the third status unclear, and The New York Times' documents reveal the earliest allegation dates to 1993 involving a four-year-old stepdaughter.
  • Errol Musk denies the accusations, calling the reports `false` and `nonsense`, no charges have been filed, and Musk provided family support of $1,700 a month while not joining inquiries.
  • Errol's relationship with his former stepdaughter produced at least one child, complicating family ties as Jana Bezuidenhout later struggled with homelessness and drug addiction linked to trauma, and a restraining order was issued.
