Elon Musks' father had sexual allegations going back to 1993 involving children as young as 4.

"The allegations against Errol Musk involve five of his children and stepchildren, whom he was accused of abusing in South Africa and California..."
A simply unfathomably sad long read and one that really hints at the profound damage that perhaps drives some toxic behaviour with global consequences.

The US State Department is whitewashing the records of some of the world’s worst human rights violators. Israel, El Salvador, South Sudan, & Eswatini, which will accept US deportees, got a soft touch. South Africa, which has led the war crimes case against Israel, received a pointed report.
