The charges were contained in a rewritten indictment filed by
federal prosecutors against Oren Alexander, Tal Alexander and
Alon Alexander.
The three brothers are being held without bail in a case in
which prosecutors in Manhattan have alleged that they have
spoken to more than 60 people who allege they were raped by at
least one of the brothers.
Oren Alexander and Tal Alexander were already charged with using
their wealth and influence that they accumulated while selling
high-end properties in New York City, Miami and Los Angeles to
make it possible to rape and sexually abuse women from 2002 to
2021.
No date was immediately set for the men to be arraigned. They
previously had pleaded not guilty.
The superseding indictment filed Thursday adds five new charges
related to four alleged victims, including one female who had
not yet reached adulthood when the offenses allegedly occurred.
Attorney Richard Klugh said in an email that the “new charges,
like the government’s first two factually and legally unfounded
efforts, show nothing but prosecutorial overreach. It is simply
another swing-and-a-miss by a government that has gone off the
rails in an overzealous, unwarranted pursuit.”
Nicholas Biase, a spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney's Office in
the Southern District of New York, said: “We will decline to
comment beyond our filings to the court. This is an ongoing
investigation, anyone who may have information related to this
case can please contact 1-800 CALL FBI or alexander-case@fbi.gov.”
