He is a person Elon Musk rarely evokes: his father. Errol Musk, 79, is the subject of an investigation of our New York Times frames published this Tuesday, September 23.
The father of the billionaire businessman is accused of having sexually abused five of his children and good children in South Africa and California. The latter, married three times, had nine children with different women, including their own daughter -in -law.
The events date back to 1993. That year, one of his daughters -in -law, then four years old, trusts that he was affected in the family home. She accuses Errol Musk again ten years later, declaring her to smell her dirty underwear. According to police and judicial archives, three investigations have been opened, two of which are now closed. The last case dates from 2023 when Errol Musk’s last son accused his father of having touched his buttocks.
ERROL MUSK DEPLORA “ABSURDA INFORMATION”
Elon Musk’s relatives implored the director of Tesla to bring his “advice and help,” deplore when seeing the victims “suffer daily.” But, it is impossible to say if the billionaire has learned from this letter.
Questioned by our New York Times colleagues, Errol Musk defended himself by believing that “this information is false and absurd.” Accuses relatives of “encouraging children to tell lies”, especially to extract money from Elon Musk with whom he says “very close.” What the billionaire denies who has already indicated that he no longer communicates with him.
In a biography about the owner of the social network X published in 2023, he already described his father as “a terrible person.” “According to my experience, we cannot do anything. Nothing. Nothing. I would like. I tried everything. I tried the threats, the rewards, the intellectual arguments, the emotional arguments, everything to try to change my father the best and only worsened,” he deplored.
In 2017, with Rolling Stone magazine, Elon Musk said his father had committed “almost all bad malimaginable actions.” But the billionaire never explicitly indicated if he later referred to these accusations of sexual abuse.
