The United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Damian Williams, alongside officials from the FBI and the NYPD, announced charges against Alon, Oren, and Tal Alexander for alleged sex trafficking offenses. The indictment, which was revealed today, accuses the brothers of a series of sex trafficking crimes spanning over a decade across multiple states.
The Alexander brothers, who have substantial influence in the New York and Miami real estate markets, are accused of using their wealth and status to manipulate and sexually exploit women. The indictment details how they allegedly lured victims with promises of luxury and travel, only to sexually assault and rape them at private events and trips.
The trio reportedly used social media, dating apps, and party promoters to find women to invite to these events, where they would then provide drugs like cocaine, mushrooms, and GHB. According to the indictment, the brothers sometimes drugged women's drinks without their knowledge, leading to impaired physical and mental capacities that made it difficult for the victims to resist or escape.
The indictment outlines that the brothers' alleged crimes were not limited to planned events but also included spontaneous acts of sexual violence against women they met at bars, nightclubs, and through dating applications.
The charges against the Alexander brothers include one count of engaging in a sex trafficking conspiracy and one count of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, both carrying a maximum sentence of life in prison. Tal Alexander faces an additional count of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion. Despite the severity of the accusations, the defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
The investigation, led by the FBI-NYPD Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force, with support from FBI Miami, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida, the Miami-Dade County State Attorney’s Office, and the Miami Beach Police Department, is ongoing. The prosecutors in charge of the case from the Civil Rights Unit in the Criminal Division are Assistant U.S. Attorneys Kaiya Arroyo, Elizabeth A. Espinosa, and Andrew W. Jones.
Victims and individuals with additional information about the Alexander brothers' alleged criminal activities are encouraged to contact the FBI.
