T
he Alexander brothers, Alon, Oren, and Tal, have been arrested on federal sex trafficking charges, according to New York prosecutors. The indictment alleges that the prominent real estate brothers conspired to repeatedly drug, sexually assault, and rape dozens of women over a decade-long period.

    Starting in 2010, the brothers used deception, fraud, and coercion to lure women into situations where they were forcibly raped or assaulted, often by multiple men including one or more of the Alexander brothers. They would organize trips in advance, sharing photos of potential victims to ensure they met their standards of attractiveness.

    The indictment reveals that the brothers used dating apps, social media, and party planners as intermediaries to contact women, and would sometimes spike their drinks with GHB or cocaine before assaulting them. The brothers allegedly held down women who screamed for help and ignored explicit requests to stop.

    Charges include conspiracy and forcible sex trafficking, with two victims identified in the indictment. The Alexander brothers began their careers at Douglas Elliman, focusing on New York and Miami real estate markets, before launching their own firm, Official, in 2022. They have previously faced civil lawsuits alleging various acts of sexual misconduct.
