Elon Musk’s younger brother and the woman were involved for about six months between 2012 and 2013

Jeffrey Epstein engineered an intimate relationship between a woman in his network and Kimbal Musk, who is the brother of Elon Musk and on the board of directors at Tesla, according to emails from the Department of Justice’s recent release of documents involving the convicted sex offender. The younger Musk and the woman were involved for around six months between 2012 and 2013, with Kimbal Musk describing them as “dating”.

In the lead-up to Musk and the woman’s first meeting, Epstein and his longtime associate Boris Nikolic labored to set them up and bring her to a birthday party Musk was throwing – with Nikolic telling Epstein: “please prepare [the woman] —;)”

“Jeffrey and Boris, many thanks for connecting me with [the woman],” Musk later emailed Epstein and Nikolic in October 2012 after a lunch at Epstein’s Manhattan apartment. “I believe you both played a role. :)”

Throughout Musk and the woman’s time together, she forwarded Epstein several of the personal messages Musk sent to her and asked Epstein for guidance on the relationship. There is nothing in the emails to suggest that Musk was aware of her backchannel correspondence with Epstein.

Jeffrey Epstein engineered an intimate relationship between a woman in his network and Kimbal Musk

The most antiseptic and yet still horrifying way to possibly say that.

So Elon’s brother, whom I did not know existed until today, got in with Epstein but Elon didn’t.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[–] ClownStatue@piefed.social 7 points 4 hours ago

Oh, Elon absolutely did. This particular article just isn’t about him.

[–] whereIsTamara@lemmy.org 6 points 5 hours ago

I’m sure that’s what Elon wants us to think. I’m sure Elon got his share.

Given the medias way of calling girls women, how old was she?

This post is related to the Epstein Files and why my name is in them. In 2012 I started dating a woman who was 30 years old.

It's in the article...

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Dude, that's what he's saying now, lol. I'm not saying he's lying, but come on, he probably is.

[–] forrgott@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Doesn't change that she's made a statement that she was coerced.

And, no way to know, so yeah I'm skeptical, too. Just the phrasing of your question made it sound like there was no info in the article.

Anyway, no worries - meant no disrespect!

So a victim of human trafficking

They were together for six months, and then she went into high school.

Coincides with when I recall Elon going batshit crazy.
