Luxury Real Estate Brothers Found Guilty in Federal Sex Trafficking Case
New York – Three brothers, including two prominent figures in the luxury real estate world, were convicted Monday of multiple counts of sex trafficking following a five-week trial. The verdict marks a significant outcome in a case that exposed allegations of systematic abuse facilitated by wealth and influence.
Tal Alexander, 39, and his twin brothers, Oren and Alon Alexander, 38, were found guilty of charges related to the sexual assault of eleven women, according to court reports. The women testified they were subjected to sexual assault after being targeted and victimized by the brothers, who allegedly used drugs and coercion.
The jury delivered 19 consecutive guilty verdicts, with Tal Alexander visibly shaken by the outcome, lowering his head into his arms as the foreperson read the decisions.
The brothers, who have closed multimillion-dollar real estate deals in New York and elsewhere, now face the possibility of life in prison. Sentencing is scheduled for August 6, and they remain jailed pending that date.
Defense attorney Marc Agnifilo stated outside the courthouse that he intends to appeal the verdict, maintaining his clients’ innocence. “We believe in our clients’ innocence and we’re not going to stop fighting until we prevail, and we believe that we will one day prevail,” he said.
The case has drawn considerable attention, highlighting the potential for abuse within affluent circles. The New York Times reported on the verdict Tuesday, underscoring the gravity of the accusations and the impact on the victims. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/nyregion/verdict-alexander-brothers-sex-trafficking.html
