From Luxury Empire to Federal Court: Alexander Brothers Face Sex-Trafficking Trial

A New York federal trial has begun for Oren, Tal, and Alon Alexander on a 12-count sex-trafficking indictment alleging a decade-long scheme to drug, assault, and rape dozens of women connected to their luxury real estate empire; the defense says some encounters were consensual. At least eight accusers are expected to testify, including a 16-year-old, with potential sentences of 15 years to life if convicted. The brothers, held since December 2024, deny all charges as pretrial disputes over evidence and witness anonymity unfold under Judge Valerie Caproni.
