Brothers Convicted: Sex Trafficking Scheme Unravels
10 Mar
Summary
- Three brothers were convicted of sex trafficking after 11 women testified.
- They lured women to parties, drugged them, and then assaulted them.
- The brothers face decades in prison, with sentencing set for August 6.
Brothers Tal, Oren, and Alon Alexander were convicted of sex trafficking charges after a five-week federal trial in Manhattan. Eleven women testified, detailing how they were lured to exclusive parties and trips, then drugged and assaulted. The jury found the three brothers guilty on all 10 criminal counts they faced, which included offenses involving minors.
The conviction marks a downfall for Tal and Oren, once prominent luxury real-estate brokers. Their younger brother, Alon, worked in private security. Prosecutors alleged that from 2008 to 2021, the brothers used enticing events to recruit women, whom they subsequently drugged and raped in various locations, including the Hamptons and New York City.
The defense attorneys argued that messages and invitations were for branding and parties, not trafficking. However, prosecutors presented evidence including a blog post detailing a manifesto on rape. The brothers, who have been detained since their arrest in late 2024, face potential decades in prison. Sentencing is scheduled for August 6.
Beyond the criminal case, the brothers are also facing civil lawsuits. One such lawsuit was filed by Tracy Tutor, alleging Oren drugged and assaulted her in 2014.
