Luxury real estate broker brothers learn fate in sex trafficking trial

Real estate moguls Tal and Oren Alexander and their brother, Alon Alexander, were convicted in federal court of sex trafficking and related offenses, marking a dramatic fall for the once-prominent luxury brokerages.

A jury returned guilty verdicts on all charges, including conspiracy to commit sex trafficking, solicitation to travel to engage in illegal sexual activity, and multiple counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion.

In his closing argument March 3, prosecutor Andrew Jones said the brothers posed as partygoers but were actually predators toward women.

“They used a consistent playbook to lure, isolate and rape their victims,” Jones said. “They did it with callousness and a perverse sense of pride.”

ALEXANDER BROTHERS ACCUSED OF SEXUAL ABUSE ON CRUISE SHIP AHEAD OF REAL ESTATE MOGULS TRAFFICKING TRIAL

Throughout four weeks of testimony, Tal, Oren and Oren’s twin, Alon Alexander, who was an executive at his family’s private security company, vehemently denied the sex crime accusations against them, as well as other allegations.

Prosecutors say the brothers orchestrated a years-long sexual abuse scheme involving numerous women in several states. The defense argued that the meetings were consensual and that the government had gone too far.

Eleven women, including several who claimed to be minors at the time of the incidents, testified against the brothers, alleging they gave them gifts and flew them to venues and parties where they were given drugs before assaulting them.
