Three Israeli-American brothers are on trial in the United States, accused of running a sex trafficking and rape network that allegedly targeted multiple women through parties, drugs, and coercion.

Prosecutors say twins Alon and Oren Alexander, along with their older brother Tal, each raped at least ten victims, and in some cases threatened them if they spoke up.

Originally from Israel, the Alexanders built careers in luxury real estate, serving high-profile clients and celebrities including Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, Kim Kardashian, and Kanye West.

Court evidence, including text messages, reportedly shows the brothers coordinating the use of drugs to incapacitate women. Testimonies have described women being brought to parties, drugged, and then assaulted.

Several civil suits have also been filed over the past few years. As of February 2025, at least 17 women had filed claims against one or more of the brothers, alleging assault and kidnapping in Miami, Manhattan and even Moscow.

The first woman to come forward publicly, Kate Whiteman, filed a lawsuit against Oren and Alon Alexander in March 2024, alleging sexual assault in New York in 2012. Whiteman was found dead in Australia late last year.

Months after she filed her suit, the brothers were arrested alongside their older sibling and charged with sex trafficking offences.

Outside the courthouse last week, their father, Shlomi Alexander, who emigrated from Israel to the US, first establishing a security company before entering Miami real estate, said the legal cases began with a $35 million attempt to extort him.

The developments come amid growing scrutiny of Western leaders and business figures implicated in dealings with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, who had ties with the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad and whose criminal activities included the abuse and trafficking of minors.
