The Alexander Brothers Are Guilty on All Counts

"After three days of deliberation, the jury found the brothers guilty of each of the ten counts on which they had been indicted. The verdict comes after five weeks of dramatic trial testimony in which multiple women detailed being drugged, raped, and sexually assaulted by the brothers, they said, over a period spanning from the siblings' time in high school in Miami through Oren and Tal's career as high-flying brokers at Douglas Elliman."

"Federal prosecutors indicted them on sex-trafficking charges, alleging they ran an elaborate scheme in which they lured women with promises of luxury travel and experiences, drugged many of them, then sexually assaulted and raped their victims. Eleven women testified about harrowing encounters with the brothers in places like Aspen, the Hamptons, and Tel Aviv. One was 17 when she was assaulted."

"Two women first accused Oren and Alon of sexual assault in civil lawsuits filed in June 2024, prompting a flood of similar allegations in dozens of subsequent suits. The brothers were arrested in December after federal prosecutors indicted them on sex-trafficking charges."

A federal jury convicted luxury real-estate brokers Oren and Tal Alexander, along with their brother Alon Alexander, on all ten sex-trafficking charges. The prosecution presented testimony from eleven women who described being drugged, raped, and sexually assaulted by the brothers across multiple locations including Aspen, the Hamptons, and Tel Aviv, spanning from their high school years through their careers at Douglas Elliman and their own brokerage, Official. The brothers allegedly operated a scheme luring women with promises of luxury travel before drugging and assaulting them. Initial civil lawsuits filed in June 2024 triggered dozens of additional allegations. The brothers face potential life sentences at their August 6 sentencing and continue facing numerous civil suits.
