High-Profile Real Estate Brokers Arrested on Sex Trafficking Charges

Prosecutors have alleged that the Alexander brothers engaged in a pattern of drugging, assaulting, and raping numerous women over a decade-long period. Tal, Oren, and Alon Alexander, who have made their names in the luxury real estate market catering to celebrities, were arrested in Florida on Wednesday and are expected to be transported to New York City to face multiple charges, including sex trafficking conspiracy and assaults by coercion.

The allegations paint a disturbing picture of their alleged actions, which included manipulating women with offers of lavish parties and experiences before allegedly using drugs to facilitate their assaults. Victims reported being physically restrained and receiving costly gifts immediately following the attacks. While one lawyer declared Oren Alexander's innocence, representatives for Tal and Alon Alexander have yet to make statements on the case. David Gottlieb, an attorney for the victims, expressed hope that this indictment could lead to accountability and justice for those affected.

The Alexander brothers were affiliated with real estate firm Douglas Elliman, known for brokering deals involving high-profile celebrities such as Kanye West and Kim Kardashian.
