AI Summary

long article 4 min

Real estate brokers Alon, Oren, and Tal Alexander, known for their success in the luxury market, are currently on trial in Manhattan, accused of sex trafficking. Prosecutors allege the brothers conspired to lure, incapacitate, and sexually assault women, with each brother accused of raping at least 10 women. The brothers deny the allegations and have pleaded not guilty. The case began after a civil suit was filed in March 2024 by Kate Whiteman, who accused Oren and Alon of assault in 2012, though she has since died. Testimony includes accounts from witnesses who claim to have seen the brothers sexually assaulting women at parties. The trial is ongoing.
