Three brothers known for working with ultra-rich clients in real estate have been arrested and charged with terrible crimes.
Tal, Oren, and Alon Alexander, who were once famous real estate agents, are accused of using their money and influence to lure women into dangerous situations.
The brothers were arrested in Miami on Wednesday and charged with multiple counts of sex trafficking in New York federal court.
The charges say that from 2010 to 2021, the brothers used trips, luxury hotels, and other tempting offers to get women to isolated places where they were assaulted.
Some women were tricked into thinking they were starting a relationship with the brothers, while others were invited to trips or events that had been planned months in advance.
Once there, some of the women were assaulted just hours after meeting the brothers, according to the charges.
The brothers allegedly used drugs, including cocaine and a date-rape drug called GHB, to make the women unable to resist.
There are also shocking messages from the brothers where they talk about arranging parties with women, using drugs, and making sure they don’t get caught.
The Alexander brothers were well-known in the real estate world, selling properties to celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, as well as billionaire Leon Black.
They also helped sell the most expensive U.S. home ever—worth $238 million.
However, some reports say they exaggerated their involvement in big deals.
The brothers are also connected to a security company, where Alon works.
This case follows several women accusing them of sexual assault earlier this year. Lawyers for the brothers have denied all allegations.
These charges have shocked the wealthy real estate community, and police are continuing their investigation.
