Luxury real estate brothers hit with new charges in federal sex trafficking case

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

This week, new allegations emerged against the three brothers accused of leading a decade-long plan to sex traffic women as authorities aim to strengthen their case against these prominent defendants. 

Real estate tycoons Tal Alexander, Oren Alexander, and their brother Alon are charged with conspiracy to commit sex trafficking, inducement to travel for unlawful sexual activity, and three counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, as stated in a federal superseding indictment. 

According to court documents, Tal Alexander is also facing additional counts of sex trafficking and inducement, while Alon and Oren Alexander have an extra charge of aggravated sex abuse. These charges arise from allegations made by at least six new victims, including one minor.

Alon Alexander’s attorney, Howard Srebnick, pointed to his client’s willingness to sit for a polygraph test and the subsequent results. 

“Alon pled not guilty to all counts, including the newly-added count ten accusing him of drugging a woman to have sex with her,”  Srebnick said in a statement to Fox News Digital. “On January 13, 2025, a retired FBI polygraph examiner tested Alon while in jail. Alon was asked if he ever had sex with any woman he knew had been covertly given drugs, which Alon denied. The polygraph examiner opined that Alon passed the lie detector test, finding ‘no significant reactions indicative of deception’ by Alon.”

One of Tal’s attorneys, Deanna Paul, referred to previous statements his defense team had provided to Fox News Digital. In March his lawyers said the superseding indictment “changes nothing.”

“It’s a reheated version of the same case—and still does not include conduct that amounts to federal sex trafficking,” Paul and Milton Williams said at the time. “The government is trying to stretch a statute beyond recognition to fit a narrative, not a crime.”

Oren Alexander’s attorney did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment. 

They are currently being held at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center as they await trial. If convicted of the federal charges, the brothers could face the possibility of 15 years to life in prison.
